General Conditions - the basics
That being said, the Terms and Conditions (“T&Cs”) are a set of legally binding terms defined by you, as the owner of this website. The T&Cs define the legal boundaries governing the activities of website visitors or your customers when they visit or interact with this website. The T&Cs are intended to establish the legal relationship between website visitors and you as the owner of the website.
What to include in the T&C document
Typically, T&Cs often address these types of issues: Who is allowed to use the website; possible payment methods; a statement that the website owner may change its offering in the future; the types of warranties the website owner provides to its customers; a reference to intellectual property or copyright issues, if any; the website owner’s right to suspend or cancel a member’s account; and much more.
