This provision establishes the mechanism by which eBay modifies the contractual obligations and rights governing the service. It creates a structured process for term changes with a 30-day notice period before enforcement, while preserving user exit rights as the alternative to acceptance.
Users operate under terms that may be modified by eBay without mutual agreement, with continued use after the 30-day period constituting acceptance of amended provisions. The provision establishes account closure as the procedural mechanism for rejecting amended terms rather than negotiating modifications.
