The Difference Between Terms of Service, Terms & Conditions, and EULA (with Templates)
Founders often mix these documents. Pick the correct structure to avoid negotiation churn and user confusion.
| Document | Primary Audience | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Terms of Service | Web/SaaS users | Usage rules, liability, account lifecycle |
| Terms & Conditions | Generic broader label | Often identical to ToS; marketing variant |
| EULA | Installed software end‑users | License scope, IP, restrictions |

FAQ
Can I combine documents?
Yes—some SaaS consolidate into one “Terms” doc. Keep license clauses clear if distributing downloadable client tools.
Is EULA needed for purely browser SaaS?
Usually no; use ToS with IP license language.
