What it is

If Uniswap changes its privacy policy, it will notify you through its platform, but simply continuing to use the service is treated as your agreement to the new terms — even if you never actively read or approved them.

This analysis describes what Uniswap'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

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This 'consent by continued use' mechanism does not meet the standard for valid consent under GDPR, which requires a freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous indication of agreement — passively continuing to use a service does not qualify.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Any future changes to how Uniswap collects or uses your data could take effect without you actively agreeing to them, simply because you kept using the platform — this is particularly problematic for EU users whose GDPR consent rights require affirmative action.

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (Compliance & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: GDPR Art. 7 (conditions for consent) requires consent to be freely given, specific, informed, and indicated by 'a clear affirmative act.' GDPR Recital 32 explicitly states that silence, pre-ticked boxes, or inactivity does not constitute consent. CCPA/CPRA does not require affirmative re-consent for policy changes, but FTC Act Section 5 prohibits retroactive application of material changes to data practices without adequate notice. COPPA 16 CFR §312.5 requires verifiable parental consent for material changes affecting children. (2)
