What it is

Fitbit can change these Terms of Service at any time, and your continued use of their services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the new terms.

This analysis describes what Fitbit'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

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

The clause creates a procedural mechanism for unilateral amendment of the agreement terms while requiring advance notification and providing a review opportunity. It establishes that assent to modified terms occurs through continued use rather than affirmative signature or acknowledgment.
