Meta pauses planned terms updates, keeps existing rules in place

Meta has paused planned updates to four sets of business and advertising terms, so the changes will not take effect on 20 November 2026 as scheduled. The company said it is continuing discussions with stakeholders and wants more time to get the updates right.

The affected rules cover commercial services, product catalogues, self-serve advertising and generative AI ad creative. Meta said its existing terms remain in force while the plans are paused; it gave no new date for the changes.
