Our terms and conditions are one of the shorter ones, at just under seven pages. iTunes has almost 30 pages, in font size 11, mind you. Nevertheless, we want to make it as simple and understandable as possible, so that even non-lawyers can quickly get a feel for the content. We have nothing to hide and we want customers and interested parties to see that.
So we asked ourselves how we could simplify the necessary legal basis for cooperation. However, it is difficult to reformulate the terms and conditions without causing legal advice to be confused. We have therefore decided to add some explanations next to the relevant part of the terms and conditions, a kind of "law - German" translation, so to cameroon telegram screening speak. We try to summarize each paragraph briefly and concisely.
We hope that the additional explanations will help new and existing customers. And perhaps one or two of them will feel encouraged to check their contract terms to see if they are easy to read and understand.
And to avoid any misunderstandings: there were no changes to the terms and conditions themselves.
