This provision establishes that the agreement is subject to unilateral modification by Oura at any time, with continued service use constituting acceptance of modified terms, and that Oura bears no liability for service modification, suspension, or discontinuation. The agreement commits to notice of material changes but does not specify the notice channel for all modifications.
Under these terms, Oura may change the agreement or privacy policy at any time; users who continue using the services after receiving notice of material changes will be bound by the updated terms. Fee changes require 30 days' advance email notice; other material changes are subject to notice but the agreement does not specify a minimum notice period for all changes.

"ŌURA reserves the right to update this Agreement and/or the Privacy Policy at any time and for any reason in its sole discretion by posting updated terms. Unless otherwise indicated by ŌURA, any changes will become effective on a prospective basis from the date of posting. ŌURA will notify you of any material changes to this Agreement or Services. By continuing to access or use the Services after we have provided you with notice of a modification, you are agreeing to be bound by the modified Agreement. If the modified Agreement is not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to cease using the Services. ŌURA reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services or any portion thereof with or without notice. You agree that ŌURA shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.Excerpt from Oura's Terms of Service
1. REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral modification clauses in consumer contracts are subject to FTC scrutiny regarding notice adequacy and the fairness of continued-use-as-acceptance mechanisms. The EU Unfair Contract Terms Directive may restrict the enforceability of modification clauses that allow material changes without adequate notice or right of withdrawal. The agreement's commitment to notify users of material changes is a relevant procedural protection but its adequacy depends on the specific notice mechanism employed. 2. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The service discontinuation right with no-liability carve-out is a standard but significant provision for users who have purchased hardware (Oura Ring) that depends on software and cloud services to function. The practical dependency of hardware functionality on continued software service availability is not addressed in the agreement's liability framework. 3. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU consumer protection law and the Consumer Rights Directive impose additional constraints on modification of ongoing service contracts. California's automatic renewal law and unfair competition law may limit the enforceability of modification clauses that do not provide adequate notice or opportunity to cancel. 4. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise customers and research sponsors should note that Oura may modify the terms governing research data access and service availability at any time, subject to material change notice. Separately negotiated research or enterprise agreements may be necessary to provide greater contractual stability. 5. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should monitor for material change notices from Oura, which may affect data processing terms, user rights, or service functionality relevant to compliance programs. The 30-day fee change notice should be flagged in payment processing workflows.
