ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes a unilateral amendment mechanism that does not require affirmative Customer re-acceptance; continued use of the Service after the 30-day notice period constitutes acceptance of modified terms, requiring Customer procurement and legal teams to monitor posted agreement changes on an ongoing basis.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, updated agreement terms become effective 30 days after notice is posted to the Linear website, and the agreement does not require Customer to affirmatively accept the changes. Customers who do not agree with revised terms retain the right to decline renewal of their subscription.
