Terms of service is the agreement that sets the rules for using your product: what users may and may not do, your liability limits, and how disputes are handled. For a Newsletter, getting it right matters: Sending a newsletter means collecting subscriber emails and, often, tracking opens and clicks, which puts you under consent and unsubscribe rules such as CAN-SPAM and the GDPR. This free terms of service generator asks a few questions about your Newsletter and assembles a tailored document you can copy or download in seconds.
Why your Newsletter needs a terms of service
Clear terms of service protect you by setting expectations, limiting liability, and giving you grounds to suspend abusive accounts.

What a Newsletter terms of service should cover
A good terms of service for a Newsletter is specific to how your product works. At a minimum, address:
- How subscribers sign up and confirm consent to receive email
- Open and click tracking, if your email service provider uses it
- A one-click unsubscribe link in every message
- Acceptance of the terms and who may use the product
- Acceptable-use rules and prohibited behavior
- Payment, refund, and cancellation terms if you charge
- Limitation of liability and governing law

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a privacy policy just for a newsletter?
Yes. Even a simple newsletter collects email addresses and, through most email service providers, tracks opens and clicks. Disclose this, get clear consent to send email, and include an unsubscribe link in every send.
Do I need terms of service if I already have a privacy policy?
They serve different jobs. A privacy policy explains data handling; terms of service set the contract for using your product. Most apps benefit from having both.
Can I edit the generated terms of service?
Absolutely. Export the document as Markdown or HTML and adjust the clauses to match how your product actually works.
