- Changed the IP/anti-counterfeit compliance language from a mandatory obligation ('You shall comply with the TikTok Shop Intellectual Property Policy and the TikTok Shop Anti-Counterfeit Policy') to a softer informational reference ('For further information, please refer to…'), reducing the direct prescriptive compliance burden in the ToS text itself.
- Added a new explicit resource link — the 'How To Avoid Counterfeits, Knockoffs, And Other Trademark Infringement Violations' guide — as a supplementary reference alongside the existing IP Policy.
- Updated the effective date from 08/04/2026 to 08/11/2026, indicating a scheduled policy refresh with no other structural changes to seller obligations outside the IP section.
- Retained all FTC endorsement/disclosure requirements and Creator age-verification obligations unchanged, meaning no impact to creator-liability or affiliate-compliance terms.
