 | View Full Version : TOS - how? selbach 07-07-2007, 08:01 AM how to get a tos made? should I contact a lawyer to get one made? or is there somewhere I can find all I need to make one? Dougy 07-07-2007, 08:03 AM Contact a lawyer. Rasher 07-07-2007, 08:28 AM http://hostlegal.com/ already made ToS and AUP's and more. Johnny D 07-07-2007, 10:17 AM Or you could purchase eBizLegal Pro. :) JohnJ 07-08-2007, 11:06 PM If it's a TOS for a hosting company, I see no reason to contact a lawyer. Why would you want to pay a lawyer to do something that you could do in an hours time with the help of a friend? The easy way out: hijack another company's TOS :fork: selbach 07-09-2007, 02:28 AM If it's a TOS for a hosting company, I see no reason to contact a lawyer.

He's a minor, it's his parents that should worry. ;) selbach 07-09-2007, 02:33 AM He's a minor, it's his parents that should worry. ;) well... I aint a minor ;-) but ill take that as it aint legal :P uberhostNET 07-09-2007, 02:37 AM well... I aint a minor ;-) but ill take that as it aint legal :P I'm sorry mate, I was referring to H4B-John (the one who suggested stealing a TOS) as being the minor. JohnJ 07-09-2007, 02:13 PM well... is that not illegal? No, it isn't... unless some company just HAS to put a copyright on their TOS. uberhostNET 07-09-2007, 02:22 PM No, it isn't... unless some company just HAS to put a copyright on their TOS. Not true. http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/07/07/copyright-explained-i-may-copy-it-right/ Johnny D 07-09-2007, 02:52 PM Not true. http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2007/07/07/copyright-explained-i-may-copy-it-right/ Very useful & educational. Link will come in handy. :) JohnJ 07-09-2007, 02:56 PM With the permission of a company, you CAN use their TOS. If you don't want it word-for-word, then you can modify it. There are NO laws against a TOS because in this industry, 95% of these things are almost the same. Azavia 07-09-2007, 03:43 PM If you really want to use your provider's TOS, the best thing is just to ask them. If you ask I'm sure they won't mind, but you're safer asking.

HW-David 07-09-2007, 07:54 PM We didn't steal ours, but I must point something out... Even if you see that someone stole your TOS, what are you going to do? Sue them? Do you really think thats worth your money? MACscr 07-09-2007, 07:56 PM We didn't steal ours, but I must point something out... Even if you see that someone stole your TOS, what are you going to do? Sue them? Do you really think thats worth your money? Maybe not, but wouldnt you hate to be publicly embarrassed for stealing? |
