Terms of Service

Introduced by Marco Lippi et al. in CLAUDETTE: an Automated Detector of Potentially Unfair Clauses in Online Terms of Service3 May 2018 archive 2025-07-28

The Terms of Service dataset is a law dataset corresponding to the task of identifying whether contractual terms are potentially unfair. This is a binary classification task, where positive examples are potentially unfair contractual terms (clauses) from the terms of service in consumer contracts. Article 3 of the Directive 93/13 on Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts defines an unfair contractual term as follows. A contractual term is unfair if: (1) it has not been individually negotiated; and (2) contrary to the requirement of good faith, it causes a significant imbalance in the parties rights and obligations, to the detriment of the consumer. The Terms of Service dataset consists of 9,414 examples.
