Frequently Asked Questions
Direct answers about pricing, risk detection, and practical policy review workflows.
Do I really need to read privacy policies and terms of service?
Yes. These documents define how your data is collected, shared, and used. Ignoring them can expose you to hidden tracking, data resale, or unfair terms.
What risks can be hidden inside Terms of Service?
Policies often contain clauses about extensive data collection, third-party sharing, arbitration limits, or account termination without notice.
Why are these documents so hard to understand?
Legal documents are written to be legally precise, not user-friendly. They often contain complex language and vague clauses that are difficult for non-lawyers to interpret.
What is TermsInspector?
TermsInspector is an AI-powered tool that analyzes privacy policies and terms of service, highlighting risks and key points in plain English.
Is TermsInspector free to use?
Yes. You can start with a free plan that includes a limited number of analyses each month.
How accurate is the AI analysis?
The AI is trained on legal and policy data and is designed to reliably identify risky clauses. However, it does not replace professional legal advice.
Do I need an account to use TermsInspector?
No account is required to use the browser extension, but creating one unlocks higher limits and premium features.
Can TermsInspector help with SaaS vendor reviews for teams?
Yes. Teams can use TermsInspector to standardize policy checks, compare risk across vendors, and document approval decisions before procurement.
Does TermsInspector replace a lawyer?
No. TermsInspector helps users identify risk quickly and understand key clauses, but legal decisions should still involve qualified counsel when needed.
What clauses does TermsInspector flag most often?
Common high-risk flags include broad third-party data sharing, arbitration and class-action waivers, unilateral policy updates, and unclear data retention terms.
Is there a comparison between TermsInspector and manual policy review?
Yes. TermsInspector includes workflow comparisons that show speed, consistency, and risk-coverage differences between manual review and AI-assisted review.
Can I use TermsInspector before creating a new account on a website?
Yes. A common use case is scanning Terms of Service and Privacy Policies during signup so you can decide before you agree.
