Inside your terms

What the law fixes, what you set, and where your terms live

Terms and conditions are the contract between your store and each buyer: how an order is made, paid for, delivered and settled. Consumer law fixes some of their lines in each region; your draft keeps those and lets you set the rest.

Every consumer law draws a line your terms cannot cross. Each card shows the lines your draft keeps fixed for that region and the line your terms may set.

European Union

The Consumer Rights Directive and the Sale of Goods Directive: 14 days to withdraw, two years for goods that do not conform, and the law and courts of the customer’s own country.

United Kingdom

The Consumer Rights Act 2015 and the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013: goods as described, a 30 day right to reject faulty goods, and 14 days to cancel.

United States

State law decides how far products can be sold as is. Arbitration and a class action waiver are an option you choose, never a default, with a plain warning.

Canada

Provincial consumer protection law, including cancellation when an online order is 30 days late, and Quebec’s rules on quality, courts and class actions.

Brazil

The Consumer Defence Code: 7 days to withdraw from an online purchase, deadlines for defects, no limits on liability to consumers, and courts where the customer lives.

Thailand

The Consumer Protection Act and the Direct Sales and Direct Marketing Act: 7 days to cancel by written notice, a refund within 15 days, and no exclusion for death or injury.

Australia

The Australian Consumer Law: rights to acceptable quality that no term can exclude, a refund or replacement for a major failure, and repair for a minor one.

Everywhere else

The core of every draft: no limit on liability for death, injury or fraud, products that match their description, and a cap only where the law allows one.

What are terms and conditions for an online store?

Terms and conditions, also called terms of service, are the contract between your store and its buyers: how an order becomes a contract, how payment and delivery work, how far your liability goes, and which law settles a dispute.

Does my online store need terms and conditions?

Yes, in practice. Consumer laws in the EU, the UK, Brazil and elsewhere require you to tell buyers before they order who you are, the total price, delivery terms and any right to withdraw, and clear terms are where that information lives. Without them, any limit on your liability or choice of law has nothing to rest on. They sit beside your privacy policy, which covers the personal information you collect, and your refund and shipping policies.

Where should I link my terms and conditions?

In your store's footer, at checkout next to the button that places the order, and on the page where customers open an account. Customers should be able to read them before they pay, and save or print them.

How does this terms and conditions generator work?

You answer questions about your business, where your customers are, what you sell and how your store works. Each answer switches clauses on or fills them in, and the terms redraw beside the form as you type. When you are done, copy the text or download Markdown or HTML.

Is the terms and conditions generator free and private?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no email to give, and you can draft, copy and download as often as you like. The terms are put together in your browser: nothing you type is sent to Tanqory or anyone else, and nothing is saved when you close the page, so copy or download your draft before you leave.

Can my terms take away a customer's right to cancel or to a refund?

No. In the EU and the UK, consumers can withdraw from most online purchases within 14 days, and in Brazil and Thailand within 7. Rights to goods that match their description, and in Australia the rights under the Australian Consumer Law, cannot be excluded either. The draft states these rights and keeps every limit inside them.

Should I add an arbitration clause for US customers?

Only after talking to a lawyer. Individual arbitration with a class action waiver is common in US terms, and the generator can add one with a 30 day opt out and a small claims exception. Some states limit these clauses in consumer contracts, and they do not apply to customers outside the US.

Is the generated text legal advice?

No. It is a starting point in plain words, drafted from your answers. Laws change and every business is different, so have a lawyer review your terms before you publish them, and again when you sell something new or start selling to a new country.
