📋 How to Add Terms & Conditions and Liability Waivers to Your Course
If you're running a health, fitness, or coaching course, you probably know that legal disclaimers aren't optional — they're essential. Whether it's a liability waiver for your workout program or terms and conditions for your digital product, WithMe makes it easy to keep things covered. Let's walk through exactly how to set it up! 💪
🤔 Why Add Legal Disclaimers to Your Course?
Great question! Adding terms & conditions and liability waivers protects both you and your customers. Here are a few reasons creators add them:
Health & fitness courses — protect yourself from liability if someone gets injured following your program
Coaching & consulting — set expectations around results, refunds, and scope of advice
Digital products — clarify usage rights, intellectual property, and refund policies
Compliance — meet legal requirements in your country or industry
📝 Note:
WithMe doesn't provide legal advice. We recommend consulting a qualified attorney to draft your specific terms and waivers. What we can do is show you exactly where and how to display them!
✅ Option 1: Add Terms to Your Course Landing Page
The most common approach is to add your legal text directly to your course landing page. Here’s how you can do it:
Head to your WithMe Dashboard and navigate to Courses.
Select the course you want to edit and click Edit Course.
Go to the course description section on your landing page.
Paste your Terms & Conditions or liability waiver into the description editor.
Alternatively, you can upload them as an image in your landing page media and place them at the beginning of the page or anywhere they are clearly visible. You can also include a note in the text description stating that proceeding with the purchase indicates agreement to these terms.
To make the content easier to read, use headings, spacing, and bold text to highlight key sections.
Once done, click Save — and you're all set! 🎉
📝 Note:
Keep your waiver text clear and readable. Break it into short paragraphs with bold section headers so customers can easily find what they need.
💡 Best Practices for Creator Legal Disclaimers
Here are a few tips to make sure your legal bases are covered:
Be specific — generic templates are better than nothing, but tailored terms for your niche are best
Use both options — display your waiver on the landing page and require agreement at checkout for maximum protection
Keep it visible — don't bury your disclaimer at the bottom of a long page. Make it easy to find!
Update regularly — as your course evolves, make sure your terms stay current
Get professional help — a one-time investment in a lawyer can save you major headaches down the road
📝 Note:You can follow this approach for other products as well (Digital Product, Memberships, Community). Just Follow the above listed steps on the desired product.
Don't worry — setting this up takes just a few minutes, but it gives you and your customers peace of mind from day one. You've got this! 🚀
