Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? ... but WordPress.com does offer free blog hosting (well, they do show some adds, sometimes). Perhaps the ToS would in some cases not be considered a contract, if a blogger pays Automattic nothing, and Automattic has shown no adds |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? Concerning the conditional at the beginning (i.e. "If these terms and conditions are considered an offer"): On the page you linked, utsa.edu/purchasing/contracts/definition.cfm, I read that "Both parties must give something of value and receive something of value. If only one party receives value from an arrangement, the arrangement is generally defined as a gift rather than an enforceable contract." ... |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? Perhaps it'd be interesting to know, that I live in Sweden (in northern Europe), not in the US. |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? (Concerning plain language TOS — are there any companies that actually use "home made" simple (and short?) plain language TOS? As far as I've read, sometimes people recommend against not using weird legal mumbo-jumbo, and say that "normal language" has virtually no effect in courts) |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? If the service does take off, then yes, I'll consult with a laywer. SnapTerms.com seems interesting — but I live in Sweden; I suppose it might be preferable that I consult with Swedish lawyers. |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? Thanks, that's good advice — as of right now. However, there are 3 things I haven't told you: 1) I have 0 users, and I don't know if anyone will ever use the serice I'm building. So it feels a bit early to spend money on lawyers right now — it's more like a hobby project right now. And, 2) initially, I'm not going to charge people any money for using the service, which makes me feel a bit safer. And 3) I live in Sweden, not in the US, and the Swedish justice systems seems ... more just :-) than the one in the US with software patents and weird stuff. |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? Anyway, the phrase is good for me, so I'll include it in my terms, even if I might not understand it or its implications to 100%. |

Terms of Use: Meaning of “If these terms … are considered an offer, acceptance is expressly limited …”? Okay, I hope I understand now. Actually, at first, I didn't know what a contract is. But this Wikipedia section: Offer_and_acceptance, and this: Intention_to_be_legally_bound, were useful. |

Where to start writing a Terms of Service / Privacy Policy? I found it: this answer says that "there are certain warranties that are implied in the sale of a product." |

Where to start writing a Terms of Service / Privacy Policy? Alex, why do you assume "your stuff is already ... no waranty, no liability"? I think I've read in some answer on this website, that if the startup charges money, it cannot disclaim exactly all warranties? |

How to find a client that would pay for your development in exchange for a license? @mikeg, check the answer by Nick Stevens, "We went to those clients and spent time understanding their problems, until we were sure we knew them better than the client did" |
