INSTRUCTIONS

 

Overview

 

Terms of Use, also known as Terms of Service or Terms and Conditions, are legal agreements that govern the users of a service. These Terms often appear as disclaimers that must be agreed to in order to use a service, particularly software and web-based services. Unilateral or very one-sided Terms of Use are of questionable enforceability under recent court cases so service providers should make an effort to draft reasonable Terms of Use, post them in obvious locations, and provide opportunities for users to actively agree to their terms. 

 

Terms of Use often address matters including user rights and responsibilities as well as proper usage and possible misuse of the service, accountability for online actions and conduct, a privacy policy addressing personal data, payment details for subscriptions or memberships, opt-out policies for communications, details of account termination, and prescribed processes for dispute resolution, which often mandate binding arbitration and limit users’ rights to to take a claim to court. Terms of Use should also include a disclaimer or limitation of liability reducing the site’s responsibility for potential user damages, as well as details for notification provided to users when the terms are updated or modified.
