This provision reserves the right to modify data collection and processing terms without mandatory prior notice to users, with the date update serving as the sole required indicator of change for non-substantial modifications. Applicable laws in certain jurisdictions may impose notice requirements for material changes to privacy policies that are not fully reflected in this provision.
The updated policy modifies the language governing notification of Personal Information disclosure. The prior version stated that Rumble 'will attempt to notify you before we disclose your Personal Information,' whereas the revised language states the company 'may attempt to notify you.' This shifts the provision from an asserted commitment to attempt notification toward a discretionary authorization to do so when permitted by law. Under the revised terms, notification attempts are now framed as optional rather than intended.

"Rumble may choose to update or revise this Privacy Policy from time to time, with or without notice to you. Any changes to this Privacy Policy will be noted by updating the date at the top of the policy. If the changes are substantial, we may provide a more prominent notice.Excerpt from Rumble's Privacy Policy
(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: The FTC Act prohibits unfair or deceptive practices, which may include retroactively applying material changes to privacy terms without adequate notice. GDPR requires that data subjects be informed of material changes to processing activities, particularly where those changes affect the legal basis or purposes of processing. Several U.S. state privacy laws and FTC guidance address the adequacy of notice for material privacy policy changes. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The absence of a defined notice mechanism for non-substantial changes, and the undefined threshold for what constitutes a substantial change warranting more prominent notice, creates ambiguity about compliance with applicable notice requirements. Regulatory guidance from the FTC and EU supervisory authorities generally supports meaningful advance notice for material changes affecting consumer data practices. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU and UK users subject to GDPR have rights to be informed of changes to data processing that affect them. California's CPRA and other state privacy laws may impose requirements on how users are notified of material changes to privacy practices. The policy's application across multiple jurisdictions means that the adequacy of notice obligations varies by location. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: B2B customers and partners who have contracted with Rumble based on current privacy policy representations should be aware that Rumble reserves the right to alter these terms. Vendor agreements and data processing addenda should specify which version of the privacy policy governs the relationship and how modifications are handled. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Compliance teams should establish a defined threshold for what constitutes a substantial change requiring more prominent notice, and document the notice process. Version control for privacy policy updates and user notification logs should be maintained. For EEA/EU and UK users, any changes affecting the legal basis or purposes of processing should be communicated consistent with GDPR transparency requirements.
This provision reserves the right to modify data collection and processing terms without mandatory prior notice to users, with the date update serving as the sole required indicator of change for non-substantial modifications. Applicable laws in certain jurisdictions may impose notice requirements for material changes to privacy policies that are not fully reflected in this provision.
Under this clause, Rumble may modify data collection, use, and sharing terms without notifying users in advance, except that the date at the top of the policy will be updated. The policy states that substantial changes may receive more prominent notice, but does not define what constitutes a substantial change or specify the form of notice.
