Terms and conditions

The Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) are a set of legal terms defined by a website owner. They set out the terms and conditions governing the activities of visitors and the relationship between visitors and the website owner.

The terms must be established according to the specific needs and nature of each site. For example, a site that offers products to customers involving e-commerce transactions needs to have terms that are different from the terms of a site that offers information only.    

The terms give the website owner the ability to protect themselves in case of possible legal exposure.

In general, what needs to be addressed in the Terms and Conditions?

 

  1. Who can use the site; what are the requirements for creating an account (if relevant)

  2. Important business terms offered to customers

  3. Safeguarding the right to modify the offer

  4. Warranties and liability for services and products

  5. Ownership of intellectual property, copyrights and logos

  6. Right to suspend or cancel member accounts

  7. Indemnity

  8. Limitation of Liability

  9. Right to change and modify the Terms

  10. Applicable law and resolution of claims

  11. Contact information
