The policy reserves the right to modify its terms over time and states that material changes that increase Xfinity's rights to use previously collected personal information will be communicated through written, electronic, or other means, allowing users to make decisions about continued service use.

This provision limits affirmative notification to changes that increase Xfinity's rights over previously collected data, meaning that other material modifications to the policy, including new data collection categories or new sharing arrangements for prospectively collected data, may not trigger the same notification obligation. The notification mechanism is described broadly as written, electronic, or other means without specifying format or advance notice period.
Interpretive note: The provision's scope of notification obligation is limited to changes increasing rights over previously collected data; the treatment of other material changes is not explicitly addressed, creating interpretive uncertainty about the full notification commitment.
Under this clause, users will receive notification if Xfinity makes changes that increase its rights over previously collected personal information, but the policy does not commit to notification for all material changes or specify a minimum notice period. Continued use of services after policy changes constitutes acceptance under typical terms of service frameworks.
