summaries. The 4 checks below carry their own dates, the

- Statute
- Colo. Rev. Stat. §6-1-732, as amended by SB25-145 (2025 Colo. Sess. Laws ch. 368). [medium confidence — flagged for counsel]
- Official text
- https://content.leg.colorado.gov/sites/default/files/documents/2025A/bills/sl/2025a_sl_368.pdf
- Effective
- The act was approved June 3, 2025. It states that one provision takes effect February 16, 2026 and the remainder on the day following the expiration of the ninety-day period after final adjournment, applying to automatic-renewal contracts offered or renewed on or after the applicable date.
- Applies to
- Any person offering an automatic-renewal contract or trial-period offer to a consumer in Colorado. SB25-145 broadened the definition of consumer beyond individuals buying for personal, family or household purposes, so this framework may reach business customers as well. [medium confidence — flagged for counsel]
What it is summarized as requiring
- Automatic-renewal offer terms presented clearly and conspicuously before the contract is executed, including, for a trial-period offer, the price that will be charged afterwards.
- Where the terms sit behind an online link, that link must be available before purchase, appear directly adjacent to the purchase link, and be labelled with a disclosure that purchasing enrols the consumer in an automatic-renewal contract.
- Where consent was given online, a one-step online cancellation link, available immediately after any authentication used only to confirm the consumer may change the account.
- A retention or save offer is permitted only alongside a prominently located, continuously proximate direct link to cancel.
