This provision establishes that Agreement modifications take effect through continued use, without requiring affirmative re-consent from users, which may interact with consumer protection requirements in EU/EEA and UK jurisdictions that require meaningful consent to material contract changes.
Interpretive note: Enforceability of deemed acceptance through continued use for material contract changes may vary by jurisdiction, particularly in EU/EEA and UK consumer contexts where affirmative consent to material modifications may be required.
The updated terms explicitly state that UK, EU, and EEA consumers retain statutory consumer protection rights that cannot be limited or excluded by the agreement, and that applicable local law prevails in the event of conflict with these terms. This adds clarity to the legal framework but does not change substantive protections for those users. The terms also clarify that mUSD is a third-party digital asset not issued by Consensys, treating it as a third-party service subject to the agreement's limitations on Consensys' responsibility for third-party services.
