Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Plaid controls the implementation deadline, and failure to meet it for security, legal, or exigent updates could expose the Partner to enforcement action.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

The Partner is required to act within Plaid-set deadlines for updates to Specifications whenever security, legal compliance, or exigent circumstances are involved.
