This clause establishes Meta's unilateral authority to alter contractual obligations, fees, features, data practices, or other material terms without requiring mutual agreement. It creates an asymmetric modification mechanism where the service provider controls term updates while users accept through continued use or must cease service.
The updated terms establish a jurisdictional change for consumers. Previously, all disputes had to be resolved in California courts; now, if you are a consumer or if your country requires it, disputes must be resolved in courts within your home country under your home country's laws. For Meta's own claims against you, the agreement still requires disputes to proceed exclusively in California courts. The revised terms also now require Meta to notify you at least 30 days in advance before making changes to these Terms, and you will have the opportunity to review them before they take effect, unless changes are required by law.
