Clickwrap agreements permit companies to engage in a contract with customers without negotiating with each user individually. To be a considered legitimate, the contract must: Be reasonably and prominently visible to all users. Require active, affirmative consent. Be easily understood by the average user. Be enforceable. Clickwrap agreements are a digital offshoot of shrink wrap licenses. In the last century, when most software was installed locally, shrink wrap licenses were commonly used by software vendors to protect their intellectual property. When the customer removed the plastic shrinkwrap that protected a new software floppy disk or compact disk, they were contractually indicating they agreed with the software vendor’s terms of service. Use cases for clickwrap agreements Today, online users encounter clickwrap agreements regularly. Some examples include: Asking website visitors to acknowledge that the website they are visiting uses cookies. Completing an online registration form. Installing a mobile app. Purchasing a cloud service. Connecting to a wireless network. Clickwrap agreements and the law   Clickwrap contracts are often used in situations where the same boilerplate contract needs to be offered or signed hundreds, thousands or millions of times. Common uses include contracts that support online privacy policies or terms and conditions for accessing member-protected website content.   It is a best practice to call out the existence of the contract through a pop-up window that has a checkbox and contains language such as “I agree to the terms and conditions.” There should also be a hyperlink to a webpage that documents the full agreement the user is accepting.   Most of the time, clickwrap and shrink wrap agreements are made and never mentioned or thought of again. If the terms of the contract are violated, however, there can be serious legal and financial consequences.   Should there be a need to defend a clickwrap agreement in court, the entity that issued the contract needs to have sufficient documentation to prove when and where the agreement was signed.

Clickwrap agreements permit companies to engage in a contract with customers without negotiating with each user individually. To be a considered legitimate, the contract must: Be reasonably and prominently visible to all users. Require active, affirmative consent. Be easily understood by the average user. Be enforceable. Clickwrap agreements are a digital offshoot of shrink wrap licenses. In the last century, when most software was installed locally, shrink wrap licenses were commonly used by software vendors to protect their intellectual property. When the customer removed the plastic shrinkwrap that protected a new software floppy disk or compact disk, they were contractually indicating they agreed with the software vendor’s terms of service. Use cases for clickwrap agreements Today, online users encounter clickwrap agreements regularly. Some examples include: Asking website visitors to acknowledge that the website they are visiting uses cookies. Completing an online registration form. Installing a mobile app. Purchasing a cloud service. Connecting to a wireless network. Clickwrap agreements and the law   Clickwrap contracts are often used in situations where the same boilerplate contract needs to be offered or signed hundreds, thousands or millions of times. Common uses include contracts that support online privacy policies or terms and conditions for accessing member-protected website content.   It is a best practice to call out the existence of the contract through a pop-up window that has a checkbox and contains language such as “I agree to the terms and conditions.” There should also be a hyperlink to a webpage that documents the full agreement the user is accepting.   Most of the time, clickwrap and shrink wrap agreements are made and never mentioned or thought of again. If the terms of the contract are violated, however, there can be serious legal and financial consequences.   Should there be a need to defend a clickwrap agreement in court, the entity that issued the contract needs to have sufficient documentation to prove when and where the agreement was signed.

Clickwrap agreements permit companies to engage in a contract with customers without negotiating with each user individually. To be a considered legitimate, the contract must: Be reasonably and prominently visible to all users. Require active, affirmative consent. Be easily understood by the average user. Be enforceable. Clickwrap agreements are a digital offshoot of shrink wrap licenses. In the last century, when most software was installed locally, shrink wrap licenses were commonly used by software vendors to protect their intellectual property. When the customer removed the plastic shrinkwrap that protected a new software floppy disk or compact disk, they were contractually indicating they agreed with the software vendor’s terms of service. Use cases for clickwrap agreements Today, online users encounter clickwrap agreements regularly. Some examples include: Asking website visitors to acknowledge that the website they are visiting uses cookies. Completing an online registration form. Installing a mobile app. Purchasing a cloud service. Connecting to a wireless network. Clickwrap agreements and the law   Clickwrap contracts are often used in situations where the same boilerplate contract needs to be offered or signed hundreds, thousands or millions of times. Common uses include contracts that support online privacy policies or terms and conditions for accessing member-protected website content.   It is a best practice to call out the existence of the contract through a pop-up window that has a checkbox and contains language such as “I agree to the terms and conditions.” There should also be a hyperlink to a webpage that documents the full agreement the user is accepting.   Most of the time, clickwrap and shrink wrap agreements are made and never mentioned or thought of again. If the terms of the contract are violated, however, there can be serious legal and financial consequences.   Should there be a need to defend a clickwrap agreement in court, the entity that issued the contract needs to have sufficient documentation to prove when and where the agreement was signed.

If the terms of the contract are violated, however, there can be serious legal and financial consequences.   Should there be a need to defend a clickwrap agreement in court, the entity that issued the contract needs to have sufficient documentation to prove when and where the agreement was signed.
