Legal warning
The explanations and information provided on this page are only general and broad explanations and information on how to write your own Terms and Conditions document. You should not consider this article as legal advice or recommendations on what you really should do, because we cannot know in advance what are the specific terms that you want to establish between your business and your customers and visitors. We recommend that you seek legal advice to understand and prepare your own Terms and Conditions.
Terms and Conditions: fundamentals
That said, the Terms and Conditions ("T&C") are a set of legally binding terms defined by you, as the owner of this website. The T&C establish the legal limits that govern the activities of website visitors, or your clients, while visiting or participating in this website. The T&C are intended to establish the legal relationship between site visitors and you as the owner of the site.
The T&C must be defined according to the specific needs and nature of each website. For example, a website that offers products to customers in electronic commerce requires different T&C than the T&C of a website that only provides information (such as a blog, landing page, etc.).
The T&Cs give you, as the website owner, the ability to protect yourself from legal liability, but this may differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, so please make sure you seek local legal advice if you are trying to protect yourself from legal liability.
What should be included in the Terms and Conditions document
In general, the T&C usually address these types of issues: who is authorized to use the website, possible payment methods, a statement that the owner of the website may change its offer in the future, the types of guarantees that the website owner offers its customers, a reference to intellectual property or copyright issues (if relevant), the website owner's right to suspend or terminate a member's account and much more._cc781905- 5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_
