According to August 15th, Taobao issued a notice today stating that in order to create a better Taobao live broadcast ecosystem and protect the legitimate rights and interests of both anchors and institutions, Taobao Live plans to add the "Rules for the Management of Binding Relationships of Institutions and Anchors".

The change of the rules will be announced on August 15, 2022 and will officially take effect on September 30, 2022. Because the new rules are online, for institutions and anchors whose binding relationship has expired before the date of the implementation of this rules, the platform recommends that both parties confirm whether to continue to establish a binding relationship. If the two parties confirm that they will continue to establish a binding relationship through consensus, the binding relationship between the two parties can be continued according to the process; if the two parties confirm that they will no longer continue to bind, after the date of the effective date of this rule, either party of the anchor/institution initiates the unbinding process, and the binding relationship between the two parties can be terminated without the consent of the other party. If either anchor or institution has sufficient evidence to support the unbinding process, either party initiates the unbinding process. If it is rejected many times, the broadcaster can appeal; if the anchor has not started broadcasting for 180 consecutive days and the anchor actively initiates the unbinding process, the anchor and the institution will automatically unbind.
