Lime can change its terms at any time and considers your continued use of the service as your agreement to the new terms, even if you did not actively review or accept them.
This analysis describes what Lime'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
You may be bound by new terms you were not aware of simply by continuing to ride, unless you actively stop using the service after receiving a change notification.
If Lime changes its terms in a way that is less favorable to you, such as expanding data collection or limiting your rights further, your only way to avoid being bound by those changes is to stop using the service entirely.

"Lime reserves the right to change this Agreement from time to time at its sole discretion. Lime will provide you with notice of such changes by sending you an email, providing a notice through our Services or updating the date at the top of this Agreement. Unless Lime says otherwise in its notice, an updated Agreement will be effective immediately upon posting, and your continued use of the Services after the effective date of the changes (or such other date as Lime may specify) will constitute your acceptance of the revised Agreement.— Excerpt from Lime's Lime Terms of Service
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral modification clauses are common in digital services agreements but may face scrutiny under GDPR for EU users, which requires affirmative consent for material changes to data processing terms rather than implied consent through continued use. The FTC's unfair or deceptive practices framework may be relevant if material changes are not adequately communicated. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The notice mechanisms stated (email, in-app notification, or date update) vary in their adequacy. A date update alone at the top of an agreement is unlikely to constitute meaningful notice under most regulatory standards. The clause as stated reserves broad discretion to Lime without a minimum notice period prior to effectiveness. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users may have rights under GDPR to be notified of and actively consent to material changes in data processing. UK GDPR applies similar standards for UK users. Australian Consumer Law may require reasonable notice and may limit the ability to impose adverse changes on existing users without consent. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: B2B arrangements that incorporate this User Agreement should include provisions addressing how term changes are communicated and whether advance notice periods apply. Automated notification systems should be audited to confirm they generate delivery records sufficient to evidence notice. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should implement a formal change management process that distinguishes material from non-material changes, establishes minimum advance notice periods, and documents delivery of notice to users. For EU users, assess whether active re-consent is required for changes that affect data processing purposes.
