Terms of Service Generator

Overview

Scans a website or application to understand the business model, user interactions, data collection practices, and third-party integrations, then generates a comprehensive terms of service document with 16 sections. Includes GDPR and CCPA compliance provisions, plain English summaries after each section, and [VERIFY] tags for assumptions that require human confirmation.

The generated ToS adapts its language and provisions based on the detected business type (e-commerce, SaaS, marketplace, content platform, mobile app, etc.).

Legal Disclaimer: This skill generates template documents for informational and educational purposes only. Generated terms of service are not a substitute for legal advice. All documents should be reviewed by a licensed attorney before publication. Regulatory requirements vary by jurisdiction and business type. No attorney-client relationship is created by using this tool.

Prerequisites

  • A live website URL or local codebase to analyze
  • Knowledge of the business entity name and jurisdiction
  • Understanding of whether the service involves payments, user accounts, or user-generated content

Instructions

  1. Analyze the website or application. Use WebFetch to scan the target URL. Identify:

    • Business type (SaaS, e-commerce, marketplace, content, API, mobile app)
    • User interaction patterns (accounts, purchases, subscriptions, content uploads)
    • Data collection mechanisms (forms, cookies, analytics scripts, payment processors)
    • Third-party integrations (Stripe, Google Analytics, social login, CDNs)
    • Geographic indicators (language, currency, server location)
  2. If a codebase is available instead, use Glob and Read to scan for:

    • Cookie/tracking implementations
    • Authentication flows
    • Payment integrations
    • User data models
    • API endpoints that accept user input
  3. Gather business details from the user:

    • Legal entity name and type (LLC, Corp, sole proprietor)
    • Business address and jurisdiction
    • Contact email for legal notices
    • Minimum user age requirement
    • Whether the service is free, paid, or freemium
  4. Determine applicable compliance frameworks:

    • GDPR — if serving EU/EEA users (detected via language, .eu domain, Euro pricing)
    • CCPA/CPRA — if serving California users or meeting revenue/data thresholds
    • COPPA — if the service could attract users under 13
    • ADA/WCAG — if a US-based public-facing service
    • PCI-DSS — if processing payment card data
    • CAN-SPAM — if sending marketing emails
  5. Generate the 16-section Terms of Service:

    # Section Covers
    1 Agreement to Terms Acceptance mechanism, effective date
    2 Description of Service What the service provides
    3 User Accounts Registration, security, age requirements
    4 Acceptable Use Policy Prohibited conduct, content standards
    5 User-Generated Content Ownership, licenses, moderation rights
    6 Intellectual Property Company IP rights, trademarks, DMCA
    7 Payment Terms Pricing, billing cycles, refunds (if applicable)
    8 Free Trials & Subscriptions Trial terms, auto-renewal, cancellation
    9 Privacy & Data Collection Reference to privacy policy, GDPR/CCPA summary
    10 Third-Party Services Links, integrations, disclaimers
    11 Disclaimers & Warranties "As-is" provision, warranty limitations
    12 Limitation of Liability Liability caps, excluded damages
    13 Indemnification User indemnification obligations
    14 Termination Grounds, notice, effect of termination
    15 Governing Law & Disputes Jurisdiction, arbitration, class action waiver
    16 General Provisions Modifications, severability, entire agreement, contact
  6. Add plain English summaries. After each section, include a blockquote: > **In Plain English:** {simple summary of what this means for users}

  7. Insert compliance-specific provisions:

    • GDPR: Data processing legal basis, right to erasure, DPO contact, data portability
    • CCPA: "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" rights, opt-out mechanism
    • COPPA: Age verification, parental consent mechanism
  8. Tag all assumptions. Place [VERIFY] before any clause based on inferred information:

    • [VERIFY: assumed SaaS model based on subscription pricing detected]
    • [VERIFY: jurisdiction set to Delaware — confirm with business owner]
    • [VERIFY: assumed no users under 13 — confirm age policy]
  9. Write the output file using the naming convention below.

Output

Generate a single Markdown file named TERMS-OF-SERVICE-{company}-{YYYY-MM-DD}.md with:

# Terms of Service

**Last Updated:** {date}
**Effective Date:** {date}

Error Handling

Error Cause Solution
Website unreachable URL is down or behind auth Ask user for a description of the service or local codebase path
Cannot determine business type Minimal website content Ask user directly about their business model
Payment detection ambiguous Cannot tell if free or paid Ask user to confirm pricing model
International complexity Multiple jurisdictions detected Generate provisions for all detected jurisdictions, add [VERIFY]
Dynamic content not scannable SPA with client-side rendering Ask user to describe features or provide sitemap
Missing company details User did not provide entity info Use [VERIFY] placeholders, list in summary
