Legal background

A UK business website should publish terms governing how visitors use it, what they may and may not do with the content, who owns the IP, and the limits of your liability. Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 and Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977, certain limitations are unenforceable; this template stays inside the enforceable line.

Sample excerpt

A short preview of the kind of clauses your generated document will contain. The full document is tailored to your inputs.

1. Acceptance. By accessing this website, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the site. 2. Permitted use. You may view, print and download content for your personal, non-commercial use only. You may not: (a) copy, reproduce, republish or distribute any material without our prior written consent; (b) use any data-mining, robots, scrapers or similar tools; (c) upload any content that is unlawful, defamatory, infringing or harmful; (d) attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the site or its systems. 3. Intellectual property. All content (text, graphics, logos, software) on this site is owned by or licensed to [Company Name] and is protected by UK and international copyright, trade mark and other intellectual property laws. The trade marks and logos may not be used without our prior written permission. 4. Liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all liability for indirect, special or consequential loss arising from use of the site. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under English law.

Frequently asked questions

Are these the same as Terms of Service for my SaaS?

No. These are general website T&Cs — for the marketing site and casual browsing. If you sell a SaaS or e-commerce product, you also need product-specific terms (subscription terms, refund policy, SLA). Our Terms of Business covers B2B SaaS.

Do I need these if I have a Privacy Policy?

Yes — different purposes. Privacy Policy = how you handle personal data (UK GDPR). Website T&Cs = the contract between you and visitors using your site (intellectual property, liability, acceptable use).

Will the liability cap actually hold up in court?

For B2B sites and visitors in commercial contexts, yes — UCTA permits reasonable caps. For consumers (Consumer Rights Act 2015) some carve-outs apply (e.g. you can't exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by your negligence).

These templates are general legal information, not bespoke legal advice. For high-value or unusual matters, ask a solicitor to review.
