Perplexity updated its Perplexity Search Addendum, a search-specific addendum for its Search Services API, with important changes about how search data is used and retained. Why should you care if you use or plan to integrate its Search API? Because it defines rights, limits of liability and rules about data that affect developers, products and compliance. (perplexity.ai)

What the addendum says (key points)

• Version date: the document shows a recent update dated September 22, 2025. This is useful to know from when the changes apply. (perplexity.ai)

• Scope and priority: the addendum supplements and supersedes the general API agreement specifically for the Search Services. In other words, where there is a conflict between the base contract and this addendum, the latter takes priority over everything related to search. ()
