A disclaimer is a statement intended to limit your liability for the outcome of the use of your site. By including your disclaimer, the user agrees to the terms of your disclaimer, and while it can’t absolutely rule out the possibility of having a legal action raised against you, it still can go a long way in protecting you and your business.
This is why we’re introducing to you our Free Disclaimer Generator tool

Importance of having a Disclaimer Page
- It helps protect your business against legal claims.
- Disclaimers notify users that you will not be held responsible for damages arising from the use of your website, products, or services.
- If a legal claims against your site were filed, your disclaimer can provide you with the legal support you need to successfully defend against those claims.
- If you use affiliate links in your website, you might (by law) require a disclaimer. AdSense is not affiliate links, so if you only use AdSense and your AdSense account is personal, rather than a business one, then you probably don’t need a disclaimer page
Features of Disclaimers
As explained above, your disclaimer must be unique to your own business model or related to the purpose and objective of your website or application. Thus, the features of disclaimers will vary greatly from one another because of the content.
A nutrition website might have a medical disclaimer informing users to consult with their physicians before trying out their recipes, while a legal website might have a legal disclaimer informing users to check their country’s regulations before taking action, and so on.
Examples of features included in disclaimers could be:
- The accuracy of the content on your website
- A disclaimer will protect you if inaccurate content causes a loss to a third party
- Protecting your business against what is not claimed
- Copyright and Trademarks
- Transmission of viruses to the visitor’s computer
- Physical injury from products sold
- Any issues can be covered in the disclaimer that you choose to add
