Changes to the Deactivation Policy shall be effective and binding on the parties upon CONTRACTOR’s continued use of the DOORDASH platform following DOORDASH’s e-mail notice of such modifications.

When DOORDASH makes material changes to this Agreement, it will post the revised Agreement on the DOORDASH Platform and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of the Agreement. DOORDASH will also provide CONTRACTOR with notice of any material changes before the date the revised Agreement becomes effective.

This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and shall not be modified, altered, changed or amended in any respect, unless in writing and signed by both parties or unless DOORDASH modifies the Agreement pursuant to Section XVII.. Before accepting any modifications, alterations, changes or amendments, CONTRACTOR shall have the right to discuss any proposed changes with DOORDASH and consider whether to continue its contractual relationship with DOORDASH.

To the extent DOORDASH's consumer facing Terms and Conditions Agreement (or updated consumer facing Terms and Conditions Agreement, if applicable) is inconsistent or conflicts with this Agreement, this Agreement prevails. However, the decision to opt-out of the Mutual Arbitration Provision in this Agreement does not affect the enforceability of any arbitration agreement in the consumer facing Terms and Conditions Agreement to which Contractor may be bound (and vice versa). This Agreement may not be assigned by either party without written consent of the other and shall be binding upon the parties hereto, including their heirs and successors, provided, however, that DOORDASH may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an affiliate of DOORDASH or any successor(s) to its business and/or purchaser of substantially all of its stock or assets. References in this Agreement to DOORDASH shall be deemed to include such successor(s).
