# What is ClickTerm?

> ClickTerm is a clickwrap agreement management platform that helps you collect, track, and prove legally-binding consent.

ClickTerm is a **clickwrap agreement management platform**. It helps businesses collect legally-binding consent from end users by presenting terms, policies, and agreements directly inside your application — and proving that consent was given.

## What ClickTerm does

* **Present legal documents** — Show Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policies, NDAs, or any agreement to end users inside your app via a customizable dialog
* **Record consent events** — Track who accepted what, when, on which device, and from which IP address
* **Prove acceptance** — Generate tamper-proof Certificates of Acceptance (PDF) for legal and compliance purposes
* **Manage versions** — Update your legal documents over time with full version history and automatic re-acceptance flows
* **Support multiple templates** — Create and manage separate templates for each type of legal document

## Key concepts

| Concept                       | Description                                                                     |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Template**                  | A legal document (e.g., Terms of Service) managed in the dashboard              |
| **Version**                   | An immutable snapshot of template content, with major/minor versioning          |
| **Clickwrap event**           | A record of a user's interaction (accepted, declined, pending)                  |
| **Certificate of Acceptance** | A signed PDF proving a specific user accepted specific terms at a specific time |
| **Integration (App)**         | A connected application (web or mobile) where clickwrap flows run               |
| **Placeholder**               | A dynamic field (name, email, company) that gets filled at runtime              |

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a template">
    Write your legal document in the ClickTerm dashboard using the rich text editor.
    Add placeholders for user-specific data if needed.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish a version">
    Publish your template to make it available. Choose an effective date — the version becomes active when that time arrives.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Integrate with your app">
    Add the ClickTerm SDK (Web or Android) to your application. The SDK presents
    the clickwrap dialog to your end users.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Collect consent">
    End users accept or decline the terms. The SDK captures the event and returns
    a Signature to your backend for verification.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Verify and store">
    Your backend verifies the Signature with the ClickTerm API. A Clickwrap Event
    and Certificate of Acceptance are created automatically.
  </Step>
</Steps>
