Uber can change these terms at any time, and if you keep using the app after the changes are posted, you are considered to have agreed to the new terms.

This provision establishes the procedural mechanism by which the agreement governing the service relationship can be altered without requiring affirmative user consent, shifting the default rule from mutual agreement to unilateral modification with notice and constructive acceptance through continued use.
Interpretive note: Whether continued use constitutes valid consent to material changes, particularly data processing amendments, may vary by jurisdiction and is subject to GDPR and consumer contract law constraints in EU/EEA.
Your rights and obligations under these terms can change at any time based on Uber's unilateral decision, and simply continuing to use the app after a notification is treated as consent to those changes, which may include changes to arbitration terms, data use, or fees.

"Uber reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions of these Terms or its policies relating to the Services at any time, effective upon posting of an updated version of these Terms on the Services or notifying you in accordance with Section 17. You should regularly review these Terms, as your continued use of the Services after any such changes constitutes your agreement to such changes.— Excerpt from Uber's Uber Terms of Use
REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral amendment clauses in consumer contracts engage GDPR Article 7 (conditions for consent) for EU users, as well as EU Directive 93/13/EEC on unfair contract terms, which may treat unilateral amendment rights as unfair and unenforceable absent genuine consumer consent. Under CCPA, changes to data practices may require updated notice and opt-out rights. The FTC has issued guidance indicating that material changes to terms must be clearly communicated and may require affirmative consent in some contexts. GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The clause is common in platform terms of service but carries heightened risk when applied to material changes such as arbitration, data use, or fee structures. EU regulators have challenged broad unilateral amendment rights as creating an imbalance in consumer contracts. JURISDICTION FLAGS: EU/EEA users are most exposed, as GDPR requires that consent to data processing be freely given, specific, and revocable, meaning continued use of a service following a privacy-related amendment may not constitute valid consent. California residents may have additional rights under CCPA when data practice amendments are made. CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Enterprise and business account holders should negotiate for advance notice periods and affirmative consent requirements for material amendments, as the standard clause's reliance on continued use as acceptance may not provide adequate commercial predictability. COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Legal teams should monitor for material amendments to this agreement and assess whether each amendment requires updated consent flows, revised data processing agreements, or regulatory notifications. GDPR compliance programs should treat any amendment affecting data processing terms as triggering a review of the lawful basis for processing under Article 6.
