California businesses with websites that collect “personally identifiable information” of visitors must have a privacy policy in place and “conspicuously” displayed on their website pursuant to the California Online Privacy Protection Act. However, California businesses with websites are not required under California law to post a terms and conditions of use policy on their website. Nonetheless, most California businesses do, and for good reason.
The terms and conditions of use policy constitutes a contract that governs the relationship between your business and the visitors to your business’ website. If a visitor to your website should ever sue your business for anything arising out of his or her visit to your website, a court will consider the contractual provisions contained in the terms and conditions of use policy of your website. For that reason, while not required by California law, it is almost always a smart idea to have a terms and conditions of use policy in place from website inception, as well as to display it in an obvious location, such as next to the privacy policy on your website. Some of the most basic provisions in a terms and conditions of use policy include:
While there is a good amount of free material online which you may use to jumpstart your draft of a terms and conditions of use policy for your website, it is prudent to seek the advice of counsel. Counsel can either draft the terms and conditions of use policy for you based on your specific business/website needs; or at the very least, review your draft of your business’ terms and conditions of use policy. Smith Shapourian & Mignano, LLP is available to answer any questions or concerns you may have regarding your business website’s terms and conditions of use policy, as well as to litigate any disputes arising out of the policy.

"As much as I am shocked and ecstatic to have won the Powerball drawing, the real winner is the California public school system". No one would convince me that winning this lottery Powerball or mega millions is not something that changes the way and view of life's prospects. My name is Edwin Castro and I am from California, United States. I won the Powerball Lottery on Nov 7 2022 and I am coming to say a wonderful and big thanks to Dr Anokokudo for helping me with the winning numbers for the Powerball Lottery. I was really overwhelmed the day I contacted Dr Anokokudo to help me win the California Powerball Lottery when he instructed me what to do. The time came to play the lottery and I did and believe me, it was exhilarating. I won the Powerball $2.04 Billion and collected the lump sum of $997.6 Million and the November Powerball drawing raised a record $156.3 million for the California public school system. I am indeed thankful to Dr Anokokudo and others who helped me with his contact. Anyone who reads my comments should also try to contact Dr Anokokudo at [email protected] Comments are closed.
