http://tosdr.org/legal.html (linked from the bottom)

But there are no specific terms around the service we provide to you. The only thing is a disclaimer: "this is not legal advice" this is just our opinions.

It's like reading an article or a book. You don't need to accept ToS to do that ;-)

One other example would be to use Free Software. If you download and use, e.g. GNU/Linux, you are not accepting any ToS. (For instance, only modification and distribution of copies is regulated by the GNU GPL. Merely using the program is not).



I think you should assess and rate your own legal page using the same standards you apply everywhere else. If there is no ToS (as you point out here), you should say that.

If nothing else, it's a usability issue. I assume that tosdr.org has a good ToS, so if I want to see what an A-rated ToS looks like (according to your ratings) I should navigate to your page and your browser extension should tell me.
