## Solution

Terms of Service (ToS) define the rules for using your site/service. Essential for: e-commerce, SaaS, membership sites. Include: user responsibilities, intellectual property, disclaimers, dispute resolution. Link from footer. Keep updated when practices change. For simple content sites, may be optional but still recommended.
