Terms of Use
Updated: July 2025, 10
■Terms of use (membership rules, etc.) should be created! ?
Terms of service are the terms of service provided by a business operator.
A collection of rules that all users should comply with and agree to.
The Terms of Service are unilaterally established "common rules for users" by the business operator.
This is effective for "services that are expected to have an unspecified number of users."
In fact, when providing web/online services, apps, membership services, etc.
In many cases, terms of use, etc. are created.
| [Cases where terms of use etc. are effective] ・When providing services on the web/internet ・When providing applications or cloud services ・When providing membership services |
In addition to the "Terms of Use," there are also "Membership Terms," "Service Terms," etc.
Titles and content appropriate to the actual case will be used.
■Points to consider when creating terms of use, etc.
① Avoid using templates easily, and write content based on the direction of the service/business.
There are various forms and templates for terms of use etc. on the web.
You can also view other companies' terms of use, but easy diversion is strictly prohibited.
There are almost no templates that perfectly match each specific case.
No matter how ``it seems to be suitable for your company'',
Be sure to consider the content and direction of your company's individual services and business,
Let's revise the content to cover future possibilities.
② Posting of terms of use, etc. and consent flow (screen configuration/transition) are important
Even if we take the trouble to establish terms of use, etc., due to the structure of the website bulletin screen and consent flow,
If you do not properly post it to users and obtain their consent to make it part of the contract,
There is a risk that it will later be determined that the terms of use, etc. have not been posted appropriately/consent has not been obtained.
"Make sure the full terms and conditions are displayed"
"You will not be able to proceed to the next application button unless you scroll through the full terms and conditions."
etc., it is necessary to take measures regarding screen configuration and transitions.
③ Verify the appropriateness of the content
In the first place, the contents of the terms of use etc. are ambiguous and can be interpreted in various ways,
There is no point in agreeing to the terms of use.
In addition, if the contents of the terms of use are excessively advantageous to the business operator (e.g., a comprehensive disclaimer clause),
It may be determined to be invalid under the Civil Code or the Consumer Contract Act.
When creating terms of use, etc., be sure to clearly define terms (so that everyone can understand them in the same way), and
Please use clear expressions and content that are as easy to understand as possible and leave no room for interpretation.
