As a website attorney, one of the more frequent questions that I receive is whether Website Terms of Use and Website Terms of Service are different. In most cases the answer is no. To put it simply, a website’s Terms of Use or Terms of Service is the contract between the website operator and its user(s). The Terms of Use or Terms of Service should contain numerous legally binding provisions between a website operator and its user(s). It is also essential that a website’s Terms of Use or Terms of Service are properly implemented on a website so that the court find them enforceable.

A website’s Terms of Use or Terms of Service will differ substantially from website to website, depending on the specific services or products that the relevant website is offering its users. There are far too many website operators who think that it is acceptable and sufficient to simply take someone else’s Terms of Use or Terms of Service and slap them on a website; history has taught us that the act of stealing someone else’s Terms of Use or Terms of Service is a recipe for disaster and can ultimately bind the website operator to unfavorable terms and undesirable consequences.

Do not leave yourself exposed! The internet and websites are not exceptions to contract law. It is essential that you and your website are protecting itself from the intentional or negligent conduct of the website’s users. It is equally important that you are limiting your liability and potential exposure in the event that you make a mistake (yes, the biggest websites and internet businesses in the world make thousands of mistakes every single day).
