Changes to Terms of Service
How we notify you about updates to our Terms of Service, what they mean for you, and how to stay informed.
1. Our Commitment to Transparency
At Professional Portfolio, we believe in clear and honest communication. While our platform and services evolve to meet your needs and comply with applicable laws, our commitment to protecting your rights and maintaining your trust remains constant.
We reserve the right to modify, amend, or update these Terms of Service ("Terms") at any time. However, we will always provide clear notice before any changes take effect.
2. How We Notify You
Depending on the nature of the changes, we will notify you through one or more of the following methods:
- Email Notification: For material changes, we will send a direct email to the address associated with your account at least 30 days prior to the effective date.
- Platform Banner: A prominent notice will appear on the homepage and dashboard when you log in, directing you to the updated Terms.
- Last Updated Date: Every legal document published by us includes a clear "Last Updated" timestamp so you can quickly identify recent changes.
3. Material vs. Non-Material Changes
To help you understand the scope of updates, we categorize changes as follows:
Material Changes: Updates that significantly alter your rights, obligations, or how our core services operate (e.g., pricing adjustments, data handling practices, dispute resolution procedures). These require explicit advance notice and will only take effect after the notice period expires.
Non-Material Changes: Minor corrections, formatting updates, clarifications for readability, or administrative adjustments that do not impact your legal rights. These may take effect immediately upon publication.
4. Effective Dates & Your Consent
All material changes will specify a clear effective date. By continuing to use our platform or services after that date, you acknowledge that you have reviewed the updated Terms and agree to be bound by them.
If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you may terminate your account prior to the effective date. We will outline the steps for account closure and data export in our notification communications.
| Change Type | Notice Period | Effective Date |
|---|---|---|
| Material Changes | Minimum 30 days | As specified in notification |
| Non-Material Changes | None required | Upon publication |
| Legal/Regulatory Updates | As mandated by law | As required by jurisdiction |
5. What This Means for You
We encourage you to periodically review these Terms to stay informed about how we protect your data and operate our services. Your continued use of Professional Portfolio after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of those changes.
Should you have questions, concerns, or require accommodations regarding any updates to these Terms, please reach out to our legal compliance team.
