The policy states that RunPod may modify the Privacy Policy at any time, and that notification consists of updating the date and posting the revised version on the Service. Continued use of the Service after the effective date of any modification constitutes acknowledgment that the updated policy applies.
This analysis describes what RunPod's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology
This provision establishes that the primary notification mechanism for material privacy policy changes is a date update and website posting, and that continued platform use is treated as acceptance of modified terms. Under GDPR, this mechanism may not satisfy consent requirements for processing that requires explicit consent, and European-facing compliance teams should evaluate whether additional consent collection is required for modified processing purposes.
Interpretive note: Whether continued use constitutes legally sufficient acceptance of modified privacy terms depends on jurisdiction; under GDPR, this mechanism may not satisfy consent requirements for specific processing purposes.
Under this clause, users who continue to use RunPod's Service after a Privacy Policy update are treated as having acknowledged that the updated terms apply, without requiring affirmative agreement to specific changes. EU and UK users should note that GDPR consent standards may apply separately to specific processing purposes regardless of this general acknowledgment mechanism.
