This is our standard terms of use template. It is suitable for use on a wide range of websites.

The terms of use contain a licence of copyright to clarify the basis upon which users are permitted to use the website; they also limit (or at least attempt to limit) the liability of the website owner in respect of the use of the website. They include basic optional provisions covering registration procedures and user generated content. They also include provision for certain statutory disclosures that business websites need to make.
