Can they email you a "Change of Terms of Service" link (that nobody reads) that explains you auto accept if you continue using their service or some BS?

- PeterisP 7y agoNo, the law as written states "if the customer gives the provider express, affirmative consent to such use, disclosure, sale or access." - ignoring an e-mail or any other 'auto accept' don't qualify as express, affirmative consent.
- qmarchi 7y agoLegally dubious as you can't prove wether someone has read an email or not. Official correspondence has to occur through verifiable means (ex: having them login to a portal, certified mail) in order to handle the approval in order to stand up to a challenge in court. I'm not a legal professional, and my advice shouldn't be taken as rule. Please consult an attorney.
- anticensor 7y agoThey consider you read emails after a set period of time, regardless of you (do/did/have) actually read. It works like that in Europe not the least.
