DoorDash can change its Terms of Service at any time, and simply continuing to use the app after changes are posted counts as agreeing to the new terms.
This analysis describes what DoorDash's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
This clause establishes the operational framework by which DoorDash can alter the contractual relationship with users without requiring affirmative consent. The provision sets notice requirements and creates a mechanism where the terms governing the service relationship remain subject to company-initiated changes throughout the user's tenure.
If DoorDash updates its Terms of Service, your continued use of the app is treated as acceptance of those changes even if you never read or actively agreed to them, which means your rights under the agreement can change without a formal consent step.

"DoorDash reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. If DoorDash makes changes, it will provide notice by updating the date at the top of the Terms and, in some cases, may provide additional notice, such as adding a statement to the DoorDash homepage or sending a notification through the app. Your continued use of the Services after the revised Terms are posted constitutes your acceptance of the changes.— Excerpt from DoorDash's DoorDash Terms of Service
1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The use of continued-use as deemed consent for material contract modifications is subject to increasing regulatory scrutiny. Under GDPR, material changes to processing activities require fresh consent or at minimum clear notice; deemed consent through continued use is generally insufficient for changes affecting personal data processing. Under CCPA, material changes to privacy-related terms may trigger notification obligations. State consumer protection statutes may require affirmative re-consent for material changes. 2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The notice mechanism described (updating the date on the Terms page with optional additional notice) is on the lower end of consumer notification standards. Regulatory and judicial trends favor more proactive notice and affirmative consent for material changes. 3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users have stronger protections under GDPR for changes affecting data processing. California users may have rights under CCPA if changes affect data practices. Courts in several states have declined to enforce changes made via continued-use acceptance where notice was inadequate. 4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Merchants and Dashers operating under the same terms may have contractual expectations of stability that are undermined by a unilateral modification clause with minimal notice requirements. 5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should evaluate whether the modification and notice procedures satisfy requirements under GDPR, CCPA, and applicable state consumer protection statutes, and consider implementing affirmative consent flows for material changes affecting user rights or data practices.
