Grammarly can change its Terms of Service at any time, and continuing to use the service after changes are made counts as your agreement to the new terms, even if you did not explicitly review them.
This analysis describes what Grammarly'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 means the terms you agreed to when you signed up may change without your active consent, and simply using Grammarly after a change constitutes acceptance of whatever the new terms say.
Interpretive note: The adequacy of notice by date change alone may not satisfy GDPR or other regulatory requirements for affirmative consent to material changes affecting data processing; jurisdiction-dependent.
Grammarly reserves the right to modify these terms unilaterally and treats continued use of the service as acceptance of any updated terms; users who do not actively monitor for changes may find themselves bound by materially different obligations without realizing it. Checking the 'last updated' date on the terms page periodically can help users stay aware of changes.

"We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will notify you by revising the date at the top of these Terms and, in some cases, we may provide you with additional notice. Your continued use of our Services after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.— Excerpt from Grammarly's Grammarly Terms of Service
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral modification clauses in consumer contracts engage GDPR requirements for valid consent (where changes affect data processing) and FTC standards for deceptive practices. Under GDPR, material changes to processing purposes may require renewed consent rather than mere continued use, potentially creating tension between this clause and EU regulatory requirements. Consumer protection authorities in multiple jurisdictions scrutinize whether constructive notice through continued use constitutes meaningful consent. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. While unilateral modification clauses are common in SaaS consumer agreements, the extent to which 'additional notice' is provided in practice (versus only a date change on the terms page) determines whether affected users have adequate awareness of changes that could materially affect their rights. This is particularly relevant for enterprise deployments where individual employees may not monitor terms page updates. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users may have stronger arguments that certain types of changes (particularly those affecting data processing) require affirmative consent rather than constructive acceptance through continued use. California's consumer protection framework may also require more prominent notice for material changes. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise contracts that incorporate the consumer ToS by reference should include provisions requiring Grammarly to provide advance written notice of material changes. Procurement teams should negotiate a minimum notice period and the right to terminate without penalty if terms change materially. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Organizations should establish a process to monitor for Grammarly ToS updates, particularly where employee use of the service intersects with regulated data or confidentiality obligations. Consent management frameworks should account for the possibility that terms — including data use provisions — may change without proactive user notification beyond a date update.
