MANILA, Philippines (Aug 2026) — For millions of Pinoy tech users, a major update to the Microsoft Services Agreement is coming next month, and ignoring it could mean losing access to your account.
The tech giant is rolling out these updates to clarify its terms, ensure transparency, and cover new products, services, and features. The updated agreement will officially take effect on Sept. 30, 2026.
What happens if you do nothing
Pinoy users who continue to use the company’s products and services on or after Sept. 30, 2026, are automatically agreeing to the updated terms. If you do not agree with the new changes, your only option is to discontinue using the products and services and close your Microsoft account before the deadline hits.
The agreement governs the use of various consumer online products and services that millions of people rely on daily. For parents and guardians, the updated policy notes that you are responsible for the digital activities of your children or teenagers, including any purchases they make on their accounts.
