What it is

Noom can change these terms at any time, and if you keep using the service after being notified, you are considered to have agreed to the new terms.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause establishes the mechanism by which the service provider can alter contractual obligations prospectively. It creates a notice-and-acceptance framework where the user's continued use operates as affirmative acceptance, rather than requiring explicit re-consent to modifications.

Interpretive note: Whether continued use constitutes legally valid acceptance of material changes, particularly to arbitration provisions, may depend on jurisdiction and the nature of the change; some courts have found that material modifications require affirmative consent.

Noom's updated terms make clearer that the platform provides behavioral support, not medical treatment, and that coaching and food data features may not be fully accurate. This clarification is important for users who might view Noom as a substitute for medical advice or treatment. The terms now explicitly reserve Noom's right to suspend or revoke your access at any time, which expands the company's unilateral control over your account. Review the updated terms carefully, especially if you rely on Noom for health management or have shared sensitive health information on the platform.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The FTC Act and state consumer protection laws impose standards on how contract modifications are disclosed to consumers. Updating a 'Last Updated' date without direct and specific notice to users of material changes may not satisfy the clear and conspicuous disclosure standard under FTC guidance. GDPR requires that any changes to processing conditions be actively communicated and, where processing relies on consent, fresh consent may be required. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The breadth of Noom's unilateral modification right, combined with the provision that continued use constitutes acceptance, is common in platform agreements but creates risk if material changes, such as data sharing expansions or arbitration modifications, are not prominently disclosed. JURISDICTION FLAGS: California and other states may require affirmative acceptance of material changes rather than implied acceptance through continued use, particularly where the change affects arbitration rights or data handling. EU and UK users' rights under GDPR may not be modifiable through a unilateral notice mechanism. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Vendor agreements referencing Noom's terms should account for the possibility that terms may change materially during the contract period. Procurement teams should consider requesting notification of material changes as part of any enterprise agreement. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Assess whether the current notice mechanism, which includes email and in-service notice, meets the specificity and prominence standards for material changes under applicable law. Consider whether affirmative re-consent should be obtained for changes affecting sensitive data processing or dispute resolution terms.
