Share 𝕏 Share in Share 🔒 PDF

What it is

Paramount+ can change the rules of your agreement at any time, and simply continuing to use the service counts as your agreement to whatever the new terms say.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Paramount can unilaterally alter subscription prices, data collection practices, content availability, or dispute resolution terms, and your continued use of the service — even if you never read the update — constitutes your legally binding acceptance of those changes.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

This means Paramount+ could add new fees, change what data they collect, or alter your rights without requiring you to affirmatively agree — just by posting an update online.

View original clause language
WE RESERVE THE RIGHT, AT OUR SOLE DISCRETION, TO CHANGE, MODIFY, ADD OR REMOVE PORTIONS OF THESE TERMS AT ANY TIME. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO CHECK THESE TERMS PERIODICALLY FOR CHANGES. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THE SERVICE FOLLOWING THE POSTING OF CHANGES WILL MEAN THAT YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO THE CHANGES.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Unilateral modification clauses are subject to FTC Act Section 5 scrutiny for unfairness and deception, particularly where changes affect pricing (implicating the Negative Option Rule, 16 C.F.R. Part 425) or data practices (implicating CCPA/CPRA notice requirements). Under GDPR Article 7(3) and Article 13, material changes to data processing must be proactively communicated to EU users and cannot be incorporated by mere continued use where consent is the lawful basis. UK GDPR and ICO guidance similarly requires active re-consent for material processing changes.
