ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Users who do not cancel their account before a revised Privacy Policy takes effect are bound by the new terms simply by continuing to use the platform, without any additional affirmative consent step.

Interpretive note: The canonical claim merges two closely related propositions—effectiveness on publication date and continued-use acceptance—because they form a single operative mechanism. The account cancellation option is noted in omitted_material.
