Die auf dieser Seite bereitgestellten Informationen sind ausschließlich allgemeine und oberflächliche Erklärungen dazu, wie Website-Betreiber ihre eigenen Allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen verfassen sollten. Dieser Artikel stellt keine verlässliche juristische Rechtsberatung oder tatsächliche Handlungsempfehlung dar, da wir die geschäftlichen Beziehungen zu Kunden und Besuchern nicht im Voraus beurteilen können. Wir empfehlen Website-Betreibern daher, sich bei der Erstellung der eigenen Allgemeinen Geschäftsbedingungen rechtlich beraten und unterstützen zu lassen.
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS - THE BASICS
Terms and Conditions (“T&Cs”) are a set of legally binding terms defined by website operators. The T&Cs establish the legal framework that relates to the activities of website visitors or customers while they visit or interact with the website. The T&Cs are intended to establish the legal relationship between the website visitors and the website operator.
Terms and conditions should be defined according to the specific needs of each website. For example, an eCommerce website that offers products to customers will require different terms and conditions than a website that only provides information (like a blog, landing page, etc.).
The terms and conditions offer website operators the opportunity to protect themselves from potential legal exposure. However, these can vary depending on local jurisdiction. Therefore, legal advice should be sought for your own legal area in order to avoid legal exposure.
CONTENTS OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Generally, terms and conditions cover the following topics: who is authorized to use the website; possible payment methods; a statement that the website operator reserves the right to make changes to the offer; guarantees provided by the website operator to customers; references to intellectual property or copyright issues; the website operator's right to block or terminate a member's account and much more.
