Acceptable Use Community Guidelines

No real changes. The only difference is a scrambled email link in the child-safety reporting section, which now uses a different scramble code but still points to the exact same address (legal@vimeo.com). Nothing about your rights, data, or how Vimeo moderates content changed.

Cosmetic change: formatting, typos, or contact details.

± CHANGEDReporting email link re-encoded (same address)

Vimeo's site hides email addresses behind a scrambled code to stop spam bots. That code was regenerated, so the link text looks different in the page source. When you click it, it still opens the same reporting address as before. Nothing else in the guidelines changed.
