Last updated: February 6, 2025
We’ve updated our Terms of Service, Payments Terms of Service, Rebooking and Refund Policy for Homes, some of our other terms and policies (collectively, “Terms”), and our Privacy Policy.
The updates to our Terms discussed below are effective immediately for all first time users beginning February 6, 2025. The updated Terms will go into effect for existing users on April 17, 2025. After that date, you will need to agree to the updated Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy in order to book or manage reservations. Our use of your personal information from that date onward will be subject to the updated Privacy Policy.
Capitalized terms not defined on this page have the same meanings given to them in the Terms. You can read the full terms in the links below, along with key changes and other important information:
Here are a few common questions that you may have about this process.
After April 17, 2025, all users who registered their Airbnb account before February 6, 2025 will be asked to review and agree to the updated Terms. You will have to agree to the updated Terms before you can continue to book stays, receive future bookings, or use your Host tools. If you disagree with the updated Terms, we'll give you information about your options for completing existing reservations and canceling your account. If you have any questions or encounter any difficulties during this process, please email terms@airbnb.com for assistance. Existing users will not be able to agree to the updated Terms earlier than April 17, 2025. Your continued use of the Airbnb Platform from April 17, 2025 will be subject to the new Privacy Policy.
If you registered your Airbnb account on or after February 6, 2025, you already agreed to the updated Terms of Service, Payments Terms of Service, and other terms and policies. Also, your use of the Airbnb Platform is subject to the new Privacy Policy. The updated Terms apply to you and there is nothing more you need to do.
The updated Terms will apply to all activities (including existing, confirmed bookings) on the Airbnb Platform from the time you agree to them. If you are an existing user and you do not agree to the new terms, the previous version of the Terms of Service, Payments Terms of Service, and Privacy Policy will continue to apply to bookings you confirmed before April 17, 2025. Regardless of whether you agree to the new Terms, your continued use of the Airbnb Platform from April 17, 2025 on will be subject to the updated Privacy Policy.
Until April 17, 2025, the existing versions of the Terms can be found at the Terms of Service Archive, Payments Terms of Service Archive, and Privacy Policy Archive pages.
We hope that you found the above information helpful. We've highlighted what we think are the most noteworthy changes, but you should also review the documents in full yourself.
