This clause establishes the procedural framework through which the contractual agreement between DocuSign and users can be modified without individual renegotiation. The provision conditions continued access to services on acceptance of updated terms through a notice-and-continued-use mechanism rather than requiring explicit affirmative consent.
Users may unknowingly accept less favourable terms simply by continuing to use DocuSign after a modification notice. Business users with long-term workflows should monitor for term changes that could affect their compliance or risk posture.

Legal teams should implement a process to track and review DocuSign term updates.
