Requires companies to get your OK for automatic renewals and free trial charges.
This bill would make it harder for companies to automatically charge you for subscriptions or after a free trial. It would require clear notices and your direct permission before renewals, helping you avoid unexpected bills. Companies would also have to offer easy ways to cancel services.
Today, federal law may not explicitly require specific disclosures, notifications, or express informed consent for automatic renewals or free-to-pay conversions. This bill would mandate clear and conspicuous disclosure of automatic renewal terms and cancellation procedures. It would also require specific notifications and express informed consent for renewals and free-to-pay conversions. Contracts would be voided and refunds required for violations, and the use of 'dark patterns' to get consent would be prohibited.
