I will soon be releasing a simple fitness app, with an in-app purchase. No data will be saved anywhere other than the user’s device. I want to have basic T&C’s which pretty much say that the user needs to use the app responsibly - which they will need to agree to before using any features.
I have a generated set of T&Cs which tbh, look fine but I’m wondering if I should invest money in a solicitor to get some written up properly?
Hello, UK solicitor / consultancy owner here. Definitely worth getting a good set of terms and conditions together for your app (congratulations by the way) and having someone look over these. These can be iterated over time. Auto generated terms can be useful for quick solutions, but I wouldn’t rely on them for a product launch. If you’re in the UK, there are a range of options from using a commercial / tech law firm to working with legal consultancies (the latter can be more affordable and flexible and might be worth looking into if it’s just a quick review you’re looking for).
Thanks for your reply. I have a privacy policy I found online which tbf is more than enough for how basic the website is. It was just more the t&cs to discourage someone injuring themselves by misusing the app and wanting to sue. The app would be be available in all countries. What would a set of simple t&cs cost (£) in this usage case would you say?
Ps. There’s only a one-off in-app ‘unlock’ feature. No signups, no subscriptions or any other data kept.
