Privacy Policy

Please read.

Conditions

The Intellectual Property disclosure will inform users that the contents, logo and other visual media you created is your property and is protected by copyright laws.
A Termination clause will inform that users’ accounts on your website and mobile app or users’ access to your website and mobile (if users can’t have an account with you) can be terminated in case of abuses or at your sole discretion.
A Governing Law will inform users which laws govern the agreement. This should the country in which your company is headquartered or the country from which you operate your website and mobile app.
A Links To Other Web Sites clause will inform users that you are not responsible for any third party websites that you link to. This kind of clause will generally inform users that they are responsible for reading and agreeing (or disagreeing) with the Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policies of these third parties.
If your website or mobile app allows users to create content and make that content public to other users, a Content section will inform users that they own the rights to the content they have created. The “Content” clause usually mentions that users must give you (the website or mobile app developer) a license so that you can share this content on your website/mobile app and to make it available to other users.

Because the content created by users is public to other users, a DMCA notice clause (or Copyright Infringement ) section is helpful to inform users and copyright authors that, if any content is found to be a copyright infringement, you will respond to any DMCA takedown notices received and you will take down the content.

A Limit What Users Can Do clause can inform users that by agreeing to use your service, they’re also agreeing to not do certain things. This can be part of a very long and thorough list in your Terms and Conditions agreements so as to encompass the most amount of negative uses.

If you operate a SaaS app, a “Termination clause” will be very important. The relationship with your customers can end for any number of reasons, from a customer changing careers to a new and better SaaS option becoming available or just general dissatisfaction with a service.

But as the owner of the app, you should have a way to actively end a relationship with a customer under certain circumstances.

SurveyMonkey has included sections in their Terms of Use that outline what happens in the event of termination of service by either party. Note how the issue of a refund is addressed, as well as what happens with content that belongs to a user upon termination of the user’s account:

If you sell products (physical or digital), you’ll want Terms and Conditions for your store. Having this agreement in place will help you:

Dictate how different aspects of transactions will be handled
Inform users about acceptable payment terms
Inform users about your shipping policies
Inform users about your returns and refunds policies. You can also do this through a separate agreement, called a Return and Refund Policy, that you can reference in the Terms & Conditions agreement.
Let’s look at an example: the Limitation of Liability of Your Products clause.

No matter what kind of goods you sell, best practices direct you to present any warranties you are disclaiming and liabilities you are limiting in a way that your customers will notice.

You’ve probably noticed that these clauses in contracts are always in blocks of all-caps text and really do stand out from the rest of the document.
