ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause establishes the procedural framework by which the privacy terms remain subject to modification by Yelp, with notice requirements triggered only for changes the company determines to be material in its sole discretion. The provision operationalizes how policy updates are communicated and when they become binding.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users operate under privacy terms that Yelp may unilaterally modify, with material changes subject to email or in-service notification. The determination of what constitutes a material change rests with Yelp's sole discretion.
