Summary
The "Connected Accounts" section defining characteristics used to determine account linkage was removed from the Seller Enforcement Policy. The substantive Connected Accounts enforcement framework remains intact in the new policy document.
Why it matters
This is a presentation-only change. The Connected Accounts enforcement rules—including TikTok's right to take corresponding enforcement actions against related accounts—are fully retained in the new policy. Sellers face no new restrictions or enforcement triggers.
Recommended action
No action required. Verify in your Seller Center that Connected Accounts enforcement rules remain unchanged and that your account registration and management practices comply with existing guidelines.
