AI Summary

This bill, the Terms-of-service Labeling, Design, and Readability (TLDR) Act, requires the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to issue a rule that mandates covered entities (commercial websites and online services, excluding small businesses) to include a short-form terms of service summary statement, a graphical data flow diagram, and the full terms of service in an interactive data format on their websites. The summary statement must be easy to understand and disclose key information such as the effort required to read the full terms, the categories of sensitive user data processed, legal liabilities, and past data breaches.
