Got it ✅ — you’re asking about the Terms of Service content — what it means, what it should include, and how it’s published on a website (like postlistd.com).
Here’s a complete, clear guide 👇
⚖️ What Is a “Terms of Service” (ToS)?

- What users can and cannot do
- How the website operates
- What rights the company and users have
- Rules for payments, refunds, content, and privacy
It protects both the company and its users by setting fair, clear rules.

Here’s a standard outline of ToS content you would publish on your website:
1. Introduction

These Free Classified Ads Website Postlistd Terms and Conditions are designed for use on postlistd websites which provide classified ad services free of charge. Such sites may be broad ranging, covering a variety of goods and services; or may be more specific, targeting specific areas.
These website terms and conditions are designed for acceptance through use. Rather than being required to read them and accept them using a checkbox or similar, visitors to your website are simply deemed to have accepted the terms and conditions as soon as they start using the site. Provision is also made in this document for user accounts. An option is therefore included should you wish to make acceptance of the terms and conditions a part of the account sign-up process.
Important information about the website operator is provided, including company registration details, trading address, and details of any relevant regulatory bodies or associations. It is important to note that for certain trades and professions there may be additional information that you must supply. Members of regulated professions should include professional titles, links to professional rules and other important details. Such details are not included in this template and those working in regulated professions should seek professional advice.
Intellectual property rights are given important attention in this document. IP in user content (i.e. advertisements) is treated separately from the rights in the content owned by the website operator.
Under these terms, in common with most websites offering similar features, users retain the copyright (and any other IP rights) in their content, and grant a licence to you, the website operator, by submitting it to the site. Responsibility for the content of ads also remains with users.
Of further importance with respect to the posting of ads is the Acceptable Usage Policy. Applying to the use of the website in general, but in particular to ads, the policy sets out clearly the types of material and conduct that will not be accepted. Sanctions for breach are also included.
A number of options are included in this template that allow you to choose how much flexibility to give to your users when it comes to copying and saving material from your site, as well as establishing deep-links to pages within your site on other sites. More linking provisions included in the template may also help to prohibit users from establishing links to your site from sites publishing offensive or unlawful content.
An optional reference to third party advertising has been included (i.e. that not submitted by users), informing users that third party advertising may appear on the site and/or on the same page as their own ad, and prohibiting them from attempting to hide or remove it. A further option explains that the website operator is not responsible for the content of advertising, pointing out who is. Note that these provisions only represent a basic example and that more complex terms may apply depending upon the source of the advertising on your website.
Disclaimers and liability provisions in this document seek to protect website operators to the maximum extent deemed reasonable.
Further key clauses address internet security, data protection, privacy and cookies (integrating separate policies into the terms and conditions by reference), and communications. All parts of this template are designed to be compatible with consumer protection legislation including, but not limited to, the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
This template is duplicated in the Internet & E-Commerce group.
Optional phrases / clauses are enclosed in square brackets. These should be read carefully and selected so as to be compatible with one another. Unused options should be removed from the document.
