Hulu: Hulu and Disney+ terms: "add-ons" wording dropped, device type added as a reason content can vary, ESPN dispute-notice address changed

Disney+/ESPN/Hulu terms now list your device type as a reason content may differ, drop "add-ons" wording, and move ESPN's dispute-notice address.

What changed

Disney, ESPN and Hulu updated the shared Subscriber Agreement at hulu.com/terms. We compared today's page with our November 3 snapshot (the Nov 4 check did not run, so the changes happened sometime between those two dates). Most edits are small. Three are worth knowing about.

Change 1: content can vary by device. The Content Availability section now lists "based on your device type" among the reasons the content you get may differ, and it says content is not guaranteed "via any Service" instead of "via any Service Tier". It also drops "live" from the sentence about sporting events being unavailable, so the blackout language now reads "Certain Content, including sporting events".

Change 2: "add-ons" is gone. The words "or add-ons" were removed from the Service Tier paragraph and from the sentence about prorating charges when you change tier. The Bundles, billing, auto-renewal, price-change and cancellation text is otherwise the same. The "ad-free" section now says "different Service Tiers" rather than "different Disney+ and Hulu Service Tiers".

Change 3: ESPN's legal notice address. In the dispute-resolution notice addresses, the ESPN entry changed from "ESPN+, 50 Vandam Street, 9W, New York, NY 10013" to "ESPN, ESPN Plaza, Bristol, CT 06010-7454".

Other changes: capitalization ("Household"), a stray-space fix in the Bundle definition, and link-formatting changes in the gift card section.

What stays the same: the price-change notice by email, the cancellation and refund policy, and the arbitration and class-action waiver sections were not edited in this update.

Who it affects

Subscribers to Disney+, ESPN and Hulu (including bundles), and anyone who needs to send ESPN a written dispute notice.
