Does a "no matches found" result mean the document is safe?

No — it only means none of this tool's specific regex patterns matched; the scanner catches common wording for known concerning clause types, not every problematic clause a document could contain.

Does this give legal advice?

No — it flags pattern-based signals in plain English, like auto-renewal or forced arbitration language, so you know what to look at, but it isn't a substitute for a lawyer reading the actual terms.

Terms of Service Red-Flag Scanner

Paste a Terms of Service or Privacy Policy and get common concerning clauses flagged in plain English - data selling, forced arbitration, auto-renewal traps, broad content license grants. Signals, not legal advice.

How it works

The text you paste is checked against a fixed list of regular expressions, each tuned to a common concerning clause type — data selling, broad content licenses, auto-renewal traps, forced arbitration, unilateral changes, no-refund policies, liability waivers, and post-deletion data retention — and every match that's found is shown with the exact matched wording quoted alongside a plain-English explanation.
