Incident #C14256 · 23 SEP 2026notable
Bolt terms delay start to Oct 7, soften change-notice wording, add Bolt Lite price lock and Forge anti-poisoning rule
The AI training, dataset licensing, Forge, metering and organization-publicity provisions were already in the old terms, so they are not new. This update moves the start date for existing accounts to October 7, 2026 (or 15 days after notice, if later) and softens the change-notice promise from 15 days to 'reasonable' advance notice. It lets older content that is later submitted to Bolt AI Features become eligible for training. It also adds a Forge anti-poisoning rule and a Bolt Lite price lock, extends the customer-name right to any organization, and moves some data-handling detail into the Privacy Policy.
Taken from you
- The customer-name and logo publicity right now applies to any organization you use the Services on behalf of, not only Teams, Enterprise or other organizational plans.
- You must not submit content to Forge designed to poison or manipulate models or datasets
Won back
- Existing accounts are now not affected until October 7, 2026 or 15 days after first notice, if later (previously September 29, 2026).
- Bolt Lite subscribers (Forge-only plan) now get a price lock while their subscription stays active and in good standing.
