This provision establishes a retroactive update mechanism that asserts changes apply to data already collected at the time of the update, and treats continued platform use as acknowledgment of new terms without requiring affirmative re-consent. The clause includes the qualifier 'to the extent permitted by law,' which acknowledges that applicable legal frameworks may limit the enforceability of retroactive application.
Interpretive note: The qualifier 'to the extent permitted by law' introduces jurisdictional variance; whether the retroactive application mechanism satisfies legal requirements depends on the applicable framework in each user's jurisdiction.
Under this clause, the terms governing previously collected personal information may be updated without direct notification beyond a date change posted on the policy page, and continued use of Kick's services constitutes acknowledgment of those updates. The policy does not specify a notice period between posting and effect for material changes.
