Website Terms of Use - Sale of Goods (B2B)

These E-Commerce Sale of Goods Website Terms of Use are designed for online retailers operating e-commerce websites that sell goods to business customers.

They should be used alongside the Website Terms of Sale - E-Commerce Sale of Goods (B2B). This template governs use of the website itself, not the sale contract.

Covers website use and account sign-up

These terms are designed to be accepted through use, so visitors are deemed to accept them as soon as they start using the site.

Optional wording is also included for acceptance as part of the account sign-up process.

Includes anti-scraping and IP protection

This version includes a clause prohibiting scraping and text and data mining, including practices commonly used in the development and training of AI models. The clause is intended to make such activities a direct breach of the website terms of use.

It also includes provisions protecting intellectual property rights and optional wording on:

• saving and copying material from the site;
• deep-linking to pages within the site;
• restricting links from sites publishing unlawful or unsavoury content.

Includes operator information and regulated-profession caveats

The terms include important information about the website operator, such as company registration details, trading address, and details of any relevant regulatory bodies or associations.

For certain trades and professions, additional information may be required by law. For example, investment businesses must identify themselves as such, and members of regulated professions may need to include professional titles, links to professional rules, and other relevant details.

Those regulated-profession details are not included in this template, and professional advice should be sought where relevant.

Also covers key website protections

Further provisions deal with disclaimers and liability in relation to use of the website itself, not the sale of goods.

The terms also address internet security, acceptable use, privacy and cookies, data protection, and opting in and out of marketing communications.
