This might be an easy question to answer for some but I have no idea.

When building your webpage or sales page, I notice that most if not all the pages have some sort of disclaimer at the bottom, TOS, and copyright info that you can click on and it takes you to another page that is filled with all the legal talk.

Should every webpage you build have these pages in place. If so, does everyone go to their own lawyer and have them customize all the legal talk for their webpage before they put it up or is it ok to basically copy/paste from another website and use it on yours.

Hope the question makes sense.

Thanks in advance for all the help and clarification.

    Hi,

    Privacy Policy, TOS, Copyright, etc. are very important pages and they are useful for the following reasons:

    - Credibility - if you have them, your site looks more professional
    - Google Quality Score - you will pass the human check of AdWords easily
    - Legal impact - you can be sure that you are not going to have legal problems with angry customers

  • First off, thanks for the quick help!

    That makes a lot of sense and I didn't even know it helped with google.

    So would I be writing these up from scratch with my own lawyer?

    Taking them from other websites that have similar pages?

    Or writing them myself? Which I would guess has no legal merit to them since I am not a lawyer

    Thanks for all your help!

    Ideally you should have your attorney create them. That's your best option which will make sure everything is legal and you're not infringing on anyone else's copyright.

    However, there are places that sell templates (I think). If you go this route, you can tweak the templates to fit your site... but you should also have your attorney look over them. (Just be sure that these templates are legal to use, as I vaguely remember someone using a template that actually was in violation of someone else's copyright.)

    Whatever you do, don't take them from other sites -- that's copyright infringement.

    cheers,
    Becky

  • I'm actually on google right now, thanks!

    I didn't know there would be free templates or if it was a good idea to use them for your own website.
