“Terns” likely refers to a misspelling of “terms.” In the context of legal agreements, especially online, “Terms and Conditions” (T&C) or “Terms of Service” (ToS) are crucial documents outlining the rules and expectations for users accessing a website, application, or service. These agreements are legally binding contracts that protect the business and inform users about their rights and responsibilities.
Terms and Conditions/Terms of Service:
