T-Mobile
· T-Mobile Terms and Conditions
CPNI sharing practices define the scope of customer data available to T-Mobile's business operations and marketing functions.

This provision identifies Verizon's obligations as a telecommunications carrier under FCC CPNI rules, which impose sector-specific consent and use restrictions on call detail and network usage data beyond those required by general consumer privacy law. Compliance with these obligations is enforced by the FCC.

The right to appeal is practically significant for creators whose income depends on YPP participation, but the document does not specify timelines, standards of review, or binding outcomes for the appeals process.
This provision establishes a data controller boundary that places responsibility for subscriber data governance on individual Creators when Substack acts as a processor on their behalf. The practical implication is that subscriber privacy rights and data handling practices vary across publications, and Substack's policy does not govern those interactions, which may require subscribers to review multiple separate privacy policies.
This provision authorizes Teachable to use creator-uploaded course content, materials, and media across any distribution channel now known or later developed. The license scope is broad in terms of geographic reach and media coverage, though the terms describe its purpose as platform operation.
Your personal data does not stay within Substack's control once you engage with a creator's publication; the creator receives it and handles it under their own terms, which users may not have separately reviewed.
The clause establishes a data controller relationship where Creators assume independent responsibility for personal information provided through publication interactions. This operationally means Substack's privacy commitments do not extend to Creator-controlled processing, requiring users to reference separate Creator privacy policies to understand information handling practices.
The collection of financial and tax data enables Patreon to process creator payments, satisfy tax reporting obligations under applicable law, and maintain records required for financial audit and regulatory purposes.
This provision places the financial burden of third-party claims related to creator content or business practices on the creator rather than the platform.

This provision governs the primary mechanism by which creators monetize their work on Roblox, and it reserves Roblox's right to alter or terminate the exchange program, rates, and eligibility criteria without constraint, creating operational uncertainty for creators who depend on DevEx income.
This provision places the obligation to determine applicable tax requirements, collect applicable taxes, and remit them to relevant tax authorities entirely on the creator. For creators selling to international audiences, this includes VAT, digital services taxes, and other jurisdiction-specific obligations.
This provision clarifies the scope of content usage rights retained by Roblox beyond the direct operation of the platform. It establishes the operational framework for how creator content may be repurposed for commercial promotional activities.

· T-Mobile Terms and Conditions
The clause establishes T-Mobile's operational authority to access consumer credit data for underwriting and collections purposes, and to furnish account payment data to credit reporting systems, which are standard credit bureau reporting practices.
The agreement reserves the right to expire credits after 365 days, meaning users who purchase credits and do not use them within a year may lose their remaining balance without a refund.
This provision establishes that pre-paid Credits have a finite shelf life of 365 days, which creates a financial forfeiture risk for infrequent users who accumulate credits. The Auto Recharge authorization, once enabled, permits recurring automated charges to the user's payment method until explicitly cancelled.
PayPal
· PayPal User Agreement
This provision authorizes ongoing credit report access beyond initial account opening, triggered by PayPal's internal risk assessment, which may result in multiple credit inquiries over the life of the account.
