75%

of the 3,044 free scans considered in the last 30 days raised this finding. That is 2,282 scans across 2,268 distinct sites. 95% interval 73.1% to 76.7%.

What it means

No terms or conditions page is linked from the site. Terms are what you point at when a dispute starts, and their absence reads as a business that has not thought about one.

How to fix it

Publish a terms page that says what you sell, how refunds and disputes work, and which law applies, and link it from the footer of every page.

How to check it yourself

Open the site footer and look for a link labeled Terms or Terms and Conditions. If none appears there or elsewhere on the page, none is linked.

What fixed looks like

The footer of every page carries a link to a terms page covering sales, refunds and disputes.

How we measured this

Go Voltic scans a site and records which findings it raises. The share above is over every free four-page scan in the last 30 days that loaded at least one page, which is 3,044 scans. Deep scans of paid reports and of the research sweep read a site at a different depth and are a separate population, never in this denominator. It is not a survey and it is not an estimate: it is a count of what our own scanner found. Sites are counted once each in the distinct-sites figure, so a site scanned twice does not weigh double there.

The interval is a 95% Wilson interval. A share printed without its sample size reads as certainty and is indistinguishable from a guess, so both are always shown. Figures on this page were computed on 2026-09-08.

The same share sits beside every other finding on the benchmarks page, which also carries the whole table as CSV and JSON and says how to cite it.

The free scan reads four pages and reports every finding it raises, including this one. It takes about ten seconds and asks for nothing but the address.
