2. Terms and Conditions

Terms and conditions are a contract you make with the visitors to your site. They set out the behaviors you expect from your visitors as well as what your visitors can expect from you.

Solidly drafted terms and conditions can limit your overall legal liability, protect your valuable intellectual property, and help you collect payments on time. Without terms and conditions, any disputes arising from the use of, or purchases from, your site will likely be more messy and expensive. The contents of your terms and conditions are dictated by your particular business.

Terms and conditions usually contain:

  • How purchases are processed, typical sales terms and conditions;
  • Your shipping policy;
  • Limitations on warranty and damages;
  • Your right to refuse service, including when and how you can exercise it;
  • How changes in your terms will be communicated;
  • Where and how disputes will be handled;
  • Intellectual property policy, including how yours can and cannot be used and how you may use the intellectual property visitors post on your site; and,
  • Disclaimers, if you give advice in certain pages like specs or technical data, use of products, etc., including disclosures about any licenses you hold, or do not hold, within your industry.

3. Refund Policy

Refunds are typically just a part of business. So, it’s good to have a crystal clear policy that is conspicuous to your visitors. Don’t want to offer refunds? That’s totally fine unless you live in a place where it is mandatory. Check the laws for your state. The important part is that you are clear about your refund policy. It will help protect you from headaches and potential legal issues.

The most important thing is to make your policy as detailed as necessary for your industry and business. If you don’t accept refunds at all, again, make it very clear. If you do accept them, you’ll want to consider including at least these details in your policy:

  • Are there time limitations on returns?
  • What condition does the product need to be in for a return to be accepted?
  • Who pays for the return shipping (if applicable)?
  • What if items are damaged or arrive not as expected?
  • How long does it take you to process a return?
  • If a return is accepted, when and how can the customer expect to get his or her money back?

test !!!!!******Your copyright notice makes your visitors aware that your content is legally yours and they do not have the right to use it without your permission.

A copyright notice, though not required, is a good way to deter visitors from borrowing your material. In fact, having a copyright notice and a general "how you may or may not use my material" policy conspicuously posted on your site will save you a lot of time, money, and heartache in the long run. The copyright notice itself usually contains:

  • Copyright symbol ©;
  • Year you created your website; and,
  • Name of the copyright holder — likely, you or your business.

In addition to this, if you want to grant permission for people to use certain aspects of your material, you should state that very clearly. Just remember it’s important to be equally as clear about what’s allowed as what’s not allowed. Also, if you want to let people use certain parts of your material, make it clear that you still maintain ownership over it at all times.

5. Terms of Use Policy

The primary purpose of a terms of use policy is to limit or attempt to limit the liabilities that a website owner or publisher may suffer arising out of the website. Examples of the kinds of liability that publishers must contend with include libel/defamation, copyright infringement, and breach of privacy. Most legal systems strictly control the effects of limitations and exclusions of liability. For this reason you should seek legal advice when drafting your terms of use policy.

Many websites include these basic elements in their terms of use policy:
