What it is

Groq can update these terms at any time and, in most cases, simply posting the change on the website is enough. If you keep using the site after a change, you are treated as having agreed to the new terms.

This analysis describes what Groq'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)

Users may not receive direct notification of changes, meaning important rights or restrictions could be altered without their active awareness.

Interpretive note: Enforceability of continued-use acceptance varies by jurisdiction; EU and UK consumer protection law may require more than passive acceptance for material changes.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

This clause means your agreement to Groq's terms can be updated without you actively consenting, as continued use of the website after any change counts as acceptance. This is a commonly used mechanism but may be limited by consumer protection law in certain jurisdictions, particularly in the EU and UK.
