Summary
The policy language was updated from addressing 'Sellers' to addressing 'You', broadening the scope of responsibility for intellectual property infringement to all users rather than just sellers.
Why it matters
This change clarifies that all platform users, not only sellers, are prohibited from infringing intellectual property rights, which may increase accountability and compliance requirements for a wider audience.
Recommended action
Review and ensure all users understand their responsibility to avoid intellectual property infringement and update compliance training materials accordingly.
