Terms of service (Tos), also known as terms of use (ToU) and terms and conditions (T&C), are the legal agreements between service providers and their consumers. The person must agree to the ToS in order to use the offered service. The ToS can also be merely a disclaimer, especially regarding the use of websites. Vague language and lengthy sentences used in these ToS agreements have caused concerns about customer privacy and raised public awareness in many ways.

Companies frequently update their ToS to reflect changes in business models, regulatory requirements, user interactions or to mitigate legal risk. These modifications can range from minor clarifications to significant alterations that impact user rights, data privacy, and service accessibility.

Common ToS modifications

Type of Change	Examples	Impact on Consumers
Privacy & Data Use	Expanded data collection, third-party sharing	Affects personal data security
Arbitration Clauses	Removing class-action lawsuit rights	Limits legal recourse
Service Modifications	Price hikes, feature restrictions	Direct user experience impact
Content Moderation	Updated hate speech or copyright policies	Affects platform usage
Jurisdiction & Governing Law	Changing dispute resolution location	Affects legal options
