What it is

Runway explicitly states that its list of prohibited content is not complete and will change over time as the platform and its uses evolve.

This analysis describes what Runway's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause preserves the entity's authority to modify and expand policies without requiring comprehensive enumeration of all potential restrictions or requirements at any single point in time. It establishes that policy evolution is an anticipated operational feature rather than a breach or material change requiring separate notice.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users and enterprise customers who build workflows or products around Runway's current permitted uses should monitor for policy updates, as new restrictions may be introduced that affect existing use cases without specific advance warning described in this document.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The non-exhaustive and evolving nature of acceptable use policies is standard in the AI and SaaS industry and is generally permissible under contract law, provided users have constructive notice of changes. Regulatory frameworks such as the EU's Digital Services Act may impose obligations on platforms to provide advance notice of material policy changes to users. The FTC Act's prohibition on unfair or deceptive practices may apply if policy changes are implemented without adequate notice and result in harm. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. Enterprise customers who have integrated Runway's tools into commercial workflows face operational risk if policy changes restrict previously permitted use cases without transition periods. The policy does not specify how changes will be communicated or what notice period applies. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU users and enterprises operating under the Digital Services Act may have rights to advance notice of material policy changes. California consumers may have rights under the CCPA regarding changes to data handling practices that accompany policy updates. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise agreements should negotiate defined notice periods for material policy changes, transition provisions for affected workflows, and clarity on whether policy changes trigger renegotiation rights or termination options. The current policy language provides no such protections. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should implement a policy monitoring program to track Runway policy updates and assess their impact on commercial workflows. Enterprise contracts should include representations about the stability of key policy provisions relevant to the customer's use case.
