How to create a Terms and Conditions field

268 views January 1, 2019 April 9, 2019 admin 4

We recommend using the Terms and Conditions whenever you collect users’ data in forms on your websites, blogs, or e-commercials. The terms and conditions is not a legal requirement, but it acts as an agreement between you and the user. When you have the user’s consent for a policy or an agreement, then their data can be shared without leading to any legal disputes, privacy concerns or security risks.

So, if you want to add terms and conditions to your form, but you do not want it to take up an entire page, you need to add a Text Area field with the ‘Read Only‘ option. This way the form entry will save a copy of the terms & conditions and its text won’t be editable by the user. The terms can be a policy, disclaimer, warranty, ownership, privacy, etc.

Just follow these steps:

  1. Drag and Drop the Text Area field in the Form Builder to your form in the spot you’d like to add it to.
  2. Check to make the field “Read Only”
  3. Appropriately label your field
  4. Paste your text into the Default Value field

Allow your users to agree or disagree with your terms and conditions

Finally, in case you want to allow your users to agree or disagree with your terms and conditions, you need to add a Checkbox field with the “I accept the Terms and Conditions” option.

Just follow these steps:

  1. Drag and Drop the Checkbox field in the Form Builder to your form in the spot you’d like to add it to. Usually, below the “Terms & Conditions” text.
  2. Appropriately label your fieldwith ‘Agree or disagree with T&C’
  3. Hide the label by adding the Container CSS Class: sr-only
  4. Into Checkboxes, just enter one line:

I accept the Terms and Conditions

If you want to change the “Status of Consent“, just replace that line by:

I accept the Terms and Conditions|Agreed

The Status of Consent shows whether the user has agreed to the terms and conditions or not. E.g., Agreed, subscribed, signed up, etc.
