The policy states changes apply to existing data retroactively, meaning processing practices for data already collected may change without the user needing to take any affirmative action to accept new terms.
Interpretive note: Whether continued-use constitutes valid consent to retroactive processing changes depends on jurisdiction; GDPR and UK GDPR may impose additional requirements not addressed by this clause.
The terms state that continued use of the site or service constitutes acceptance of any revised policy, including changes that apply to personal data already collected, which may affect how account information, browsing data, and transaction records are used going forward.

"We may modify this Privacy Policy at any time, without prior notice, and changes may apply to any personal data we hold about you, as well as any new personal data collected after the Privacy Policy is modified. If we make changes, a revised Privacy Policy will be posted to our Site; the date of the last revision is included at the top of the page. We will provide individuals who create an account ("Users") with advanced notice by email if we make any material changes to how we collect, use or disclose Users' personal data or that impact Users' rights under this Privacy Policy. Your continued use or revisitation of the Site or the Service following the posting or notice of a revised Privacy Policy means that you accept and agree to the changes.Excerpt from OpenRouter's Privacy Policy
