         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong><em>According to </em></strong><a href="https://formswift.com/static-state/release-of-liability">https://formswift.com/static-state/release-of-liability </a><strong><em>  Terms of Service are defined as follows: </em></strong>A Terms of Service, or TOS, is a set of rules that a user must agree to before they can engage in services or use a product. It can also serve as a disclaimer under certain conditions, such as for website use. A properly executed Terms of Service is legally binding for both parties.<br><br></div><div>A Terms of Service agreement usually has many different sections, such as definitions, user rights and responsibilities, and disclaimers. Terms of Service can change often, and they will need to be re-accepted as changes are made to the agreement.<br><br></div><div>It is important to any company or business to include as much information as possible in their Terms of Service to avoid problems in the future. Getting legal counsel for the Terms of Service can ensure no major points have been missed and that the Terms of Service is legally binding to users. <br><a href="https://media2.giphy.com/media/3oz8xrH3ke21Lxri0w/giphy.gif?cid=e1bb72ff5a774830762e584f594b0734">https://media2.giphy.com/media/3oz8xrH3ke21Lxri0w/giphy.gif?cid=e1bb72ff5a774830762e584f594b0734</a></div>]]></description>

         <title>What are ToS agreements?</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div><figure class="attachment attachment--preview"><img src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/TevmQQ99sqZFe/200w_d.gif?cid=e1bb72ff5a774b66444551317724333b" width="200" height="112"><figcaption class="attachment__caption"></figcaption></figure></div><div><br></div><div>Terms of service perform two essential functions. The first is to educate your customers on the rules of using your products and services. The second is to <a href="https://formswift.com/static-state/release-of-liability">protect your company from lawsuits </a>. The TOS is a simple enough document to draw up, whether you’re using a free terms of service generator or working from a sample. Terms of service should be one of the first documents issued to your clients, and you should be sure to get it read and signed by each client before proceeding with their business.<br><br></div><div>As I read the information on <a href="https://formswift.com/static-state/release-of-liability">https://formswift.com/static-state/release-of-liability</a> website about ToS agreements, I realize that most people don’t understand what they are agreeing or disagreeing to.  I like how clear and concise they explain it.  It’s very interesting how good ToS agreements define the terminology (they assume you don’t know), each state requires different items that should be included, in the article it is suggested that items that are not allowed should be included instead of what is allowed.  Form Swift suggest keeping the ToS short and simple covering main or most important facts so that there are no infringement rights abused.  <br><br></div><div>According to Quizlet (<a href="https://quizlet.com/subject/terms-of-service/">https://quizlet.com/subject/terms-of-service/</a>) the World Trade Organization (WTO) has 159-member countries.  “They are designed to monitor and enforce trade agreements, can decide trade disputes, encompasses areas like service and intellectual property rights.  Also, agreements are based on the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT), helps reduce worldwide tariffs and other barriers using rounds or negotiations that resulted in lowering barriers.”  As I read these statements, I realize that because of the vast improvements with the worldwide web, Terms of Service are important to protect yourself and your rights as a creator, provider/or user of the site, item, or information.  Quizlet is a great resource for defining terms and assist with quizzing students, no matter what age.<br><br></div><div> So many infringement rights cases are filed daily.  One of the most notable cases is AOL.  According to <figure class="attachment attachment--preview"><img src="https://tse4-2.mm.bing.net/th?id=OIP.IYsdiOC2gRpe4HBBJQJBhwHaFj&amp;pid=Api" width="474" height="355"><figcaption class="attachment__caption"></figcaption></figure><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms%20of_service">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terms of_service</a>, in 1997 AOL sold their subscribers information to third party companies.  These companies began calling subscribers of AOL.  There are many more examples of cases were companies that offer subscriptions sell customers information to third party companies.<br> </div>]]></description>
