Dropbox can change these terms at any time. If the changes reduce your rights, they'll notify you — but if you keep using the service after the changes take effect, you automatically agree to the new terms.
Your legal rights with respect to Dropbox can change without your explicit consent — simply continuing to use the service after a terms update is treated as acceptance, which could include acceptance of new arbitration clauses, data sharing terms, or fee changes.

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Unilateral modification clauses are assessed under GDPR Art. 7(3) (withdrawal of consent must be as easy as giving it) and Recital 32 for EU users where processing is consent-based. EU Directive 93/13/EEC Art. 3 and Annex 1(j) specifically identify terms allowing the seller to unilaterally alter contract terms as potentially unfair. UK Consumer Rights Act 2015 §62 imposes a fairness test. California courts have examined whether notice-by-continued-use constitutes valid assent under contract formation principles. (2)
