An Act amending the act of June 23, 1993 (P.L.128, No.29), known as the Plain Language Consumer Contract Act, further providing for definitions and providing for enforceability of standardized terms in form contracts.

Maddy summaryThis bill updates Pennsylvania's Plain Language Consumer Contract Act to clarify definitions and strengthen protections for consumers signing standardized form contracts. It establishes that specific terms in these contracts are unenforceable if they would materially alter a consumer's legal rights or obligations, such as waiving intellectual property rights, limiting liability, or forcing exclusive use of a merchant's services. Courts will evaluate factors like consumer awareness and the nature of the transaction to determine if a term is unfair, while also noting that simply signing a document does not prove a consumer understood these standardized clauses. The changes apply to all new consumer contracts in the state, whether signed on paper or electronically, taking effect 60 days after enactment.
