Disclaimer Generator

A website disclaimer is not legally required but having one on your site is good practice. A disclaimer is just as important as a Terms and Conditions agreement and Privacy Policy. It helps to add another layer of protection to your business. Here are just a few reasons to add a disclaimer:

• Limits liability: A disclaimer acts as a warning so that anybody reading it will be aware of any risks involved when using your website and the information contained on it. It reduces the chance that a user can make a claim against you for damages caused through the use of information or services on your site.
• Not taking place of professional advice: Adding a clause which covers that you are not a professional and/or that the content on your site should not take the place of professional advice will help protect you.
• Content ownership: Having a disclaimer helps protect your intellectual property and may prevent others from using your content without your permission.
• Content accuracy: Although you undoubtedly do your best to provide accurate and up to date information there is always the chance that some of the content on your site may be either outdated or incorrect. Including in your disclaimer that you cannot guarantee the accuracy of all of the content on your site, you help reduce your risk.
• Third party liability: If you include any links to third party websites on your site then you do not want to be held responsible for the content on those websites. By adding this clause to your disclaimer you are letting users know that when they click on external links you are not liable in any way for the content found on the third party website.
• Consent: Include a clause that informs your users that if they do not agree to your disclaimer then they should not continue using your website.

No, a disclaimer is not actually a legal requirement like a Privacy Policy is. However a disclaimer is an important legal agreement to add to your website in order to help limit any liability. Some affiliate programs also require you to disclose your use of affiliate links.

Content. You need to let your users know that the content on your website is meant only for informational purposes. That although you have done your best to provide accurate, up to date information, there may be errors present. And finally that the information you are providing is not professional advice and is not meant to replace professional advice either.

Yes. A terms and conditions agreement does not replace a disclaimer and vice versa. Disclaimers are specifically targeting liability whereas a terms and conditions agreement is a general set of rules governing your website and how your users are to use that site.

Disclaimers help limit your risk of liability and they serve as a warning to your users. A website without a disclaimer leaves itself open to potential liability.
