How legal acceptance works

Understand when Cendaro records Terms of Service and Privacy Policy acknowledgement.

Updated May 2, 2026For: Owners · Managers · Team members

Legal acceptance records help Cendaro show which user acknowledged the current Terms of Service and Privacy Policy version, language, workspace, and timestamp.

What is recorded

When a legal acceptance is captured, Cendaro stores an acceptance record for the relevant document, version, language, user, workspace when available, and acceptance time.

  • Terms of Service document type: terms_of_service.
  • Privacy Policy document type: privacy_policy.
  • Current launch document versions use 2026-05-25.
  • Language is recorded as en or fr depending on the acceptance context.

Where acceptance appears

  • Signup and account creation flows can include the legal acceptance checkbox.
  • Invite acceptance can require the invited user to agree to the Terms of Service and acknowledge the Privacy Policy before joining a workspace.
  • Workspace creation or onboarding may also record acceptance when the flow asks for it.

What the checkbox means

The standard checkbox says: I agree to Cendaro's Terms of Service and acknowledge the Privacy Policy.

  • Terms of Service links to /terms.
  • Privacy Policy links to /privacy.
  • The checkbox should not be pre-checked.

Existing users are not blocked

Cendaro should not block normal login only because an existing user does not yet have a historical legal acceptance record. Acceptance is captured at signup, invitation, onboarding, or another explicit acceptance step instead.

Why acceptance records matter

  • They help owners and Cendaro operators understand which legal document version was acknowledged.
  • They support launch readiness and compliance review without exposing passwords or customer-entered data.
  • They make bilingual acceptance clearer by recording the language used at the time.

What acceptance does not do

  • It does not replace customer communication consent.
  • It does not create permission to send marketing messages.
  • It does not change workspace roles, billing access, or team permissions.
