Provide access to information

Wednesday, March 18th, 2009

The Foster’s Cascade Green beer web site presents a standard “Are you over 18?” question before allowing you to proceed to the content. Oddly however there is a footnote stating that “In entering this site you agree to the terms & conditions” but it doesn’t provide a link to view the site’s terms & conditions.

Agree to Terms and Conditions

If you decide to take the plunge and hope that you haven’t just agreed to handover your first born, the site itself has a “Terms & Conditions” link in the footer but clicking it takes you to the “Privacy Policy”.

I had a look around the site and could not find the “Terms & Conditions”. Here’s hoping Foster’s don’t turn up one day requesting my first born..

Lesson: don’t ask people to agree to something without giving them easy access to information related to that agreement.
