How to Add Terms and Conditions to a Wix Site

Adding a Terms and Conditions agreement to your Wix website is a smart move, whether you run an ecommerce site or a personal blog. These agreements are where you inform the public and your users about the rules, restrictions and guidelines for using your Wix site.

Not only can they help limit your legal liability, but they can also answer questions your users may have about your site without them needing to contact you.

Adding a Terms and Conditions agreement to your Wix site is quick and easy, and we'll show you how below. If you don't yet have a Terms and Conditions agreement, you can use our Terms and Conditions Generator to create your own in just a few minutes.

When Should My Wix Website Have a Terms and Conditions Agreement

While not legally required, a Terms and Conditions agreement is one of the most important legal agreements your Wix site can have.

Nearly every Wix site (and non-Wix sites alike) can benefit from having this agreement, whether you run a blog, sell a service or promote your brick and mortar company.

To show the typical scope of one of these agreements, take a look at Table of Contents from Spotify's Terms of Use. Note that "Terms of Use" is another name for a Terms and Conditions agreement:

As you can see, this agreement includes sections that outline how the service must be used, details about intellectual property rights, how customer support and questions are handled, and how problems and disputes are addressed. This is all important information that benefits you greatly by providing it to your users.

If you're looking to increase your site's professionalism and transparency while helping limit your legal liability, it's time to add a Terms and Conditions agreement.
