📝 Free Terms of Service Generator

Create a professional Terms of Service (ToS) agreement for your website, SaaS, e-commerce store, or app. Limit your liability, protect your intellectual property, and set clear rules for your users.

Why Your Business Needs a Terms of Service

A Terms of Service (ToS) is the binding legal contract between you and your users. Unlike a Privacy Policy it is rarely required by statute, but without one you have no formal right to ban abusive users, no documented ownership of your content and code, and no cap on what a single dispute could cost you.

  • Limit liability: if your software has a bug that costs a client money, or an order ships late, a warranty disclaimer and liability cap keep your exposure to a defined amount rather than an open-ended claim.
  • Reserve the right to terminate accounts: clear rules of conduct let you suspend or delete accounts that abuse the service, without arguing about it afterwards.
  • Protect intellectual property: state that your code, logos, written content and design remain yours and may not be scraped, copied or resold.
  • Fix the governing law and venue: if someone sues, the dispute is heard where you are, under a legal system you chose, instead of wherever the user happens to live.
  • Set payment and refund terms: for paid products, the ToS is where billing cycles, renewals, refunds and chargebacks are defined once, in writing.

How the generator works

You answer a short set of questions about your business — its legal name and country, whether you sell goods, subscriptions or a free service, whether users can post content, how disputes should be resolved — and the generator assembles the matching clauses into a complete document. Sections you don't need are left out rather than padded with boilerplate.

The output is plain text you can paste into your site, plus HTML if you prefer to embed it. Re-run it whenever your business changes; there is no account, so nothing is stored on our side.

The document is a starting point drafted from common clause patterns, not legal advice. If you handle payments at scale, operate in a regulated sector, or sell to consumers in several countries, have a lawyer review the generated terms before you publish them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. The generator is free to use with no signup, no usage limit and no watermark on the document it produces.
Yes, when properly implemented. A "clickwrap" agreement — where users must actively check a box or click "I Agree" before accessing the service — is highly enforceable in court, even if the user admits they didn't read the document. "Browsewrap" agreements (simply posting a link in the footer) are harder to enforce.
Yes. "Terms of Service" (ToS), "Terms and Conditions" (T&C), and "Terms of Use" (ToU) all refer to the same type of legal contract between a service provider and its users. SaaS companies tend to use "Terms of Service," while e-commerce stores often say "Terms and Conditions." The legal effect is identical.
Unlike a Privacy Policy (which is mandated by GDPR/CCPA), a ToS is generally not required by law for most informational websites. However, if you sell products, offer subscriptions, accept user-generated content, or operate a SaaS platform, a ToS is essential to limit your liability, protect intellectual property, and establish governing law.
A comprehensive Terms of Service should include: acceptable use rules, intellectual property notices, limitation of liability, disclaimer of warranties, account termination rights, payment and refund terms (if applicable), dispute resolution and governing law, and a clause reserving the right to modify the terms. Our generator covers all of these.
No. Copying is copyright infringement, and the copied ToS was drafted for a different business model, jurisdiction, and risk profile. It provides no legal protection for your specific situation. Use a generator that customizes the document based on your actual business practices.
A limitation of liability clause caps the maximum amount of damages a user can claim against you. For example, it might state that your total liability will not exceed the amount the user paid in the last 12 months. Without this clause, a single lawsuit could bankrupt a small business.
The most legally enforceable method is a clickwrap agreement: require users to actively check a checkbox (e.g., "I have read and agree to the Terms of Service") before they can register, purchase, or use your service. Display the full ToS or a clear link next to the checkbox.
A Terms of Service governs the relationship between you and your users — setting rules for using your platform, limiting your liability, and protecting your IP. A Privacy Policy specifically addresses how you collect, use, store, and protect personal data. Most websites need both documents. Generate yours with our free Privacy Policy Generator.
Update your ToS whenever you: change your business model, add new features (especially AI-powered ones), modify pricing or refund policies, expand to new jurisdictions, or when new regulations take effect. At minimum, review annually. Always notify existing users of material changes.
Yes, even for free services. A ToS protects you from liability claims (e.g., if a user relies on your free tool and suffers a loss), gives you the right to terminate abusive accounts, and establishes intellectual property ownership. Free doesn't mean risk-free.
