ClickTerm is a clickwrap agreement platform that helps website creators capture legally binding user consent with verifiable audit trails and signed Certificates of Acceptance.
What is ClickTerm?
ClickTerm is clickwrap software that turns a user’s “I Agree” action into a legally defensible record. It takes as input your legal agreements (Terms, Privacy, EULA, etc.) and produces tamper‑evident acceptance logs with timestamps, device metadata, IP address, and the exact document version. The platform runs on web and mobile apps via lightweight SDKs and a REST API, and is built and operated under GDPR in Frankfurt, Germany.
Key Features
- Immutable Proof of Consent — Every acceptance is recorded with IP, device fingerprint, browser, and timestamp in immutable storage, signed with PAdES digital signatures.
- UI Compliance — Built‑in modal ensures the full agreement text is displayed and requires active clicking; no pre‑checked boxes.
- Versioning & Re‑acceptance — Publish new terms instantly; ClickTerm automatically triggers re‑acceptance flows for returning users.
- Audit Trails — Searchable event log retrieves any acceptance record in seconds by user, date, or agreement.
- SDKs & REST API — Integrate in under an hour with JavaScript, Android (Java), React Native, or direct REST API calls.
- Certificate of Acceptance — Each accepted event generates a PAdES‑signed certificate you can download and present in court.
- GDPR‑Compliant Hosting — Data resides in AWS eu‑central‑1 (Frankfurt) with 256‑bit AES encryption and 99.99% uptime SLA.
- Usage‑Based Pricing — Free tier offers 500 events per month forever; paid tiers start at €25/month with volume discounts.
Who is it for?
- Website creators who need to display Terms of Service or Privacy Policies and want legally binding consent without building compliance infrastructure.
- SaaS product owners who require EULA or Acceptable Use Policy acceptance during signup, with automatic version updates.
- Legal teams who want to self‑serve agreement updates from a dashboard, eliminating engineering tickets for every policy change.
- Platform operators handling sensitive user data (GDPR, eIDAS, CCPA) who need retrievable, court‑ready acceptance records.
Use cases
- Terms of Service acceptance — Embed the clickwrap modal in your signup flow; every new user sees the current terms and their acceptance is recorded with a certificate.
- Data Processing Agreement (DPA) consent — Have existing users re‑accept updated DPAs via automatic re‑acceptance flows when you publish a new version.
- Non‑Disclosure Agreement (NDA) signing — Use the same SDK to capture NDAs with vendors or contractors, with full audit trail and downloadable certificates.
How does it work?
- Create an app in the ClickTerm dashboard – get an App ID and Key.
- Build a template – write your agreement in the built‑in editor, add placeholders, and publish.
- Show the modal – include the SDK and call
ClicktermDialog.show()in your frontend; the user sees the full agreement text and clicks “I Agree”. - Verify & record – send the signature to your backend, call the Verify API, and receive a PAdES‑signed Certificate of Acceptance.
Pricing
ClickTerm operates on a freemium model: a Free tier (500 events per month forever, no credit card required), Premium (€25/month + usage, volume discounts, white‑label branding), and Enterprise (custom SLAs, dedicated support, invoice billing). Usage is billed progressively across tiers, with higher volumes paying as low as €0.02 per event.
