Small Business Brochure (+ Contact Tools) Website Terms and Conditions
These Small Business Brochure Website Terms and Conditions are designed for use with simple brochure websites which also offer contact tools such as a contact form or live chat for users to contact the business. This template is best suited to websites operated by individuals or small businesses wishing to provide details of products and/or services online but without offering any e-commerce facilities.
The “How to Contact Us” section of the document includes an option to cross-refer to a separate Acceptable Usage Policy instead of listing rules applicable to messages and other content in the terms and conditions themselves.
These website terms and conditions are intended to be accepted through use. Visitors are deemed to have accepted them as soon as they start using your site. This is made clear at the start of the terms. References are also included to other terms which apply to the website itself, such as your privacy policy, as well as to the terms of sale or service which will govern sales (your on-premises or doorstep sales terms, for example). It is also expressly stated that nothing is sold via the website. It is important to note that these Terms and Conditions are not suitable for selling online.
Important information about the website operator is provided, including company registration details, trading address, and details of any relevant regulatory bodies or associations. For certain trades and professions there may be additional information that website operators are required by law to provide. Members of regulated professions should include professional titles, links to professional rules and other important details. Such details are not included in this template and professional advice should be sought by those working in regulated professions.
Intellectual property rights such as copyright are protected by these terms and conditions. Various options are included in the template to allow you to choose how many freedoms to give to your users when it comes to saving and copying material from your site. These options are grouped into two versions of the IP clause. The first is more restrictive; the second, more flexible with more options.
Further key provisions address links to and from the site, disclaimers, liability (with different provisions for consumers and business users), viruses and security, and acceptable use of the site.
Optional phrases / clauses are enclosed in square brackets. These should be read carefully and selected so as to be compatible with one another. Unused options should be removed from the document. Please note that while clause numbering is automatic, cross references to other clauses within the text do not update automatically and must be changed manually if the addition or removal of other clauses changes numbering.
This document is also available in the Internet & E-Commerce group.
