Terms and Conditions
Legal Disclaimer
This page provides general explanations and information on how to write your own Terms and Conditions document. Because we cannot know in advance what specific terms and conditions you wish to establish between your business and your customers and visitors, you should not consider this article as legal advice or recommendations on what you should actually do. If you need help and information on creating your own terms and conditions, we recommend seeking legal advice.
Basic Information about Terms and Conditions
The Terms and Conditions are a legally binding set of terms defined by you, the owner of this website. The Terms and Conditions set forth the legal limits governing the activities undertaken by website visitors or customers while visiting or interacting with this website. The Terms and Conditions aim to establish the legal relationship between site visitors and you, the website owner.
Terms and conditions should be defined according to the specific needs and nature of each website. For example, the terms and conditions of an e-commerce site offering products to customers will differ from those of a website that only provides information (blog, homepage, etc.).
The Terms and Conditions allow you, as the website owner, to protect yourself from potential legal risks, but this can vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so if you are seeking to protect yourself from legal risks, you should ensure you obtain legal advice in accordance with local regulations.
What Should Be Included in the Terms and Conditions Document?
Terms and Conditions typically address topics such as: who can use the website; possible payment methods; a statement that the website owner may change what is offered in the future; the types of guarantees the website owner gives to its customers; references to intellectual property or copyright issues where relevant; the website owner's right to suspend or cancel a member's account; and much more.
