Code examples
Good example
<link rel="terms-of-service" href="/legal/terms">Points to the terms governing use of the current page or service.
Avoid this example
<link rel="terms-of-service" href="/legal/privacy">Labels a privacy policy as terms of service. Use the relation that matches the target document.
Recommendations
- 01Link to the terms that applyUse the document or section that governs this page. Avoid a generic legal index when a direct link exists.
- 02Keep a visible terms linkThe head relation supplies metadata. Users still need a visible, accessible route to the terms before they agree to them.
- 03Keep versions clearWhen terms change, identify the effective version and preserve older versions when users may need to review them.
