Free app terms and conditions generator

How the app terms and conditions generator works

Fill in a guided 6-step form about your app and business. The generator writes terms & conditions plus a privacy policy from those answers so you can publish a consistent pair of legal pages.

1. Enter app and owner details

   Provide the app name, contact email, address, consent age, and whether you are an individual developer or a company.

2. Set product and platform options

   Choose free, open source, freemium, ad-supported, or commercial, then select Android, iOS, KaiOS, Windows, and/or Web.

3. Disclose AI, location, and SDKs

   Toggle location tracking, AI features, and data deletion wording, then include third-party services your app embeds.

4. Copy terms or privacy output

   Use the result pills to open terms or privacy, then copy preview text, HTML, or Markdown into your site or store listing.

• Google Play and Apple App Store listing URLs
• In-app settings screens that link to legal pages
• Web apps that need Terms of Use and Privacy Policy together
• Teams standardizing drafts before counsel review

What app terms cover, with an example

Terms of service (also called terms of use or terms and conditions) explain the rules for using an app, who operates it, and how users can contact the owner. Depending on the product, terms may also describe subscriptions, acceptable use, account closure, user content, and dispute handling.

For example, a freemium fitness app with an account, analytics SDK, and paid subscription should identify its operator, list the actual platforms and services, and explain the subscription and account rules that apply. This generator creates a starting draft from your answers; it cannot infer product rules you have not entered.

What terms and conditions are for

Terms and conditions, sometimes titled terms of use or a terms of service, are the rules for using the app: who may open an account, what conduct is forbidden, how subscriptions and cancellations work, and the limits of your liability. They are written as a contract-style page. A privacy policy is the companion document about data. Users and store listings often expect both. This generator drafts the terms from the facts you enter and can draft a privacy policy beside them. The result is HTML or Markdown you copy. It is a draft for review, not a signed opinion and not a guarantee that a court or a store will accept the wording.

Templates on the wider web often paste a limitation of liability, a disclaimer of warranties, and a governing-law clause that names a jurisdiction you do not operate in. Those clauses fail when they do not match the product. A consumer app, a business tool, and a marketplace do not share one liability story. Fill the wizard with the commercial facts you actually offer: whether there are paid plans, whether users post content, whether you provide advice, and which region’s courts you intend to name. Then have counsel read the draft before it is the contract you point to at signup.

Accounts, acceptable use, and user content

If the app has accounts, the terms should say how an account is closed and what happens to content when it is. If the app has no accounts, do not leave a password clause in the draft because the template had one. Acceptable-use rules should name the harms you care about: illegal content, attempts to break the service, scraping that you prohibit, harassment. A rule you will not enforce trains users to ignore the rest. User-generated content needs a license that is broad enough for you to host and display the content and narrow enough that you are not claiming to own the user’s work. Spell that license in words a developer can implement. A moderation right you do not have the tooling to use should not be promised as a safety system.

Payments and trials need dates. “Billed periodically” is weaker than the period, the price, and how a cancellation takes effect. If a store bills on your behalf, say that the store’s payment terms also apply and do not invent a refund policy the store will not perform. Free apps that never charge should not include a refund schedule. Contradictions between the terms and the paywall screen are what users screenshot.

Liability limits and the privacy companion

A liability clause allocates risk. Some laws restrict how far a consumer contract can go, especially for personal injury or for statutory rights that cannot be waived. The generator can produce limiting language. It cannot know whether that language is enforceable for your users. Do not raise the cap, or remove it, as a styling choice. Decide with counsel. Warranty disclaimers are the same kind of clause. If you do provide a specific uptime or a professional service, do not disclaim the thing you sell.

Keep the terms and the privacy policy aligned. The terms might say you may remove content. The privacy policy should say what happens to the personal data attached to that content. The terms might forbid collecting data from children. The privacy policy should describe the same boundary. Edit those documents on their own pages so each one is complete: this page for the rules of use, the privacy-policy generator for the data account. Publishing one and linking a stale copy of the other is a common, avoidable mismatch.

Governing law is a choice, not a decoration

The draft can include a governing-law sentence because contracts usually have one. The place you name should be a place you have a reason to name: where the company is established, or where your users are, after counsel agrees. Naming a random popular jurisdiction because other templates do it does not make disputes cheaper. If you are not ready to choose, leave a clear blank and do not publish the page with a placeholder city still in the sentence. The same care applies to the contact address. A terms page that points at an inbox nobody reads is a broken promise, even when the liability clause was reviewed.

Subscriptions, trials, and store billing

If the app sells a subscription, the terms should name the price, the period, whether a trial converts to a paid plan, and how cancellation works. “Cancel anytime” is incomplete if the paid period continues until a date the user cannot see. When an app store bills the user, say so, and do not promise a refund path the store will not perform. If the app is free and has no purchases, delete the billing sections rather than leaving a generic refund schedule that describes a product you do not sell. The same rule applies to user accounts: keep the clause only if an account exists. A draft that describes the product you wish you had is harder to defend than a short draft that describes the product you shipped.

How to review the draft

Read it as a new user. Every obligation you impose should be visible before signup if you intend to rely on it. Every obligation you accept should be one you can perform. Delete sections about features you do not have. Add sections about features that create risk, including user-to-user messages and location sharing. Name a contact that reaches a person. Choose a governing law you have a reason to choose. Date the version and host it at a stable URL next to the privacy policy.

The form runs in the browser. Save the Markdown or HTML in your own repository so a later edit can be diffed. A terms page that changes without a date is hard to defend and hard to explain to existing users. When the change is material, tell users in the product, not only by swapping the file. This tool will not email them. It only writes the draft you asked for.
