Texas HB860 regulates subscription service contracts, requiring clear disclosure and cancellation methods.

Texas HB860 amends the Business & Commerce Code to establish rules for subscription service contracts. Service providers must clearly disclose contract terms and cancellation procedures at the time of contract formation. For contracts with automatic renewal clauses lasting over 12 months, providers must notify consumers 90 to 15 days before renewal. Consumers can cancel contracts using the same method they used to enter the contract, such as online, mail, or phone. The attorney general can pursue civil penalties for violations, and private causes of action are not allowed.
