Course Overview
Ambiguity in e-commerce terms and conditions is resolved against the party that drafted it. Most contractual disputes about terms and conditions are decided by what was written, not what was intended. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about this area of legal and contractual practice under scrutiny. The course sets out a working method for e-commerce terms and conditions that participants can apply the week they return. Post-incident reviews keep identifying weaknesses in the legal and contractual practice discipline that were visible long before the incident. Participants apply terms and conditions to their own contract portfolio throughout, so the output is directly usable. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with e-commerce terms and conditions. Moving terms and conditions from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. The closing exercise tests whether the participant's plan for this aspect of legal and contractual practice survives a hostile question.
