RoslinCT Terms & Conditions: Legal Risks, Compliance Gaps, and Enforceability Issues Uncovered | Erayaha

## When We Examined RoslinCT’s Terms: Four Legal Risks That Could Cost Millions

Imagine a scenario where a single ambiguous clause leads to a GDPR fine of €20 million, or a vague liability waiver fails in court, exposing a company to seven-figure damages. Our analysis of RoslinCT’s Terms & Conditions reveals four key legal and logical issues that could result in substantial financial and regulatory exposure if left unaddressed.

1. Overbroad Data Collection and Privacy Ambiguity RoslinCT’s Terms reference a Privacy Policy but allow for broad data collection "as described" therein, without specifying lawful bases or explicit user rights. This ambiguity could violate GDPR (Art. 6, 13) and CCPA requirements, risking fines up to 4% of annual global turnover.

Legal Explanation

The original clause is vague and does not specify lawful bases for data processing or user rights, risking non-compliance with GDPR and CCPA. The revision clarifies the legal basis and user rights, reducing regulatory risk and enhancing enforceability.

2. Unenforceable Limitation of Liability The limitation of liability clause attempts to cap all damages at $100 and disclaim all liability, even for gross negligence or statutory breaches. Courts routinely strike down such overbroad waivers, especially where consumer rights or statutory obligations are involved. A failed limitation could expose RoslinCT to uncapped damages, litigation costs, and reputational harm.

Legal Explanation

The original clause attempts to disclaim all liability, including for gross negligence or statutory breaches, which is unenforceable in many jurisdictions. The revision preserves a reasonable limitation while carving out exceptions required by law, improving enforceability and reducing risk of judicial invalidation.

3. One-Sided Modification Rights Without Notice The Terms permit RoslinCT to modify the agreement at any time, with changes effective immediately upon posting. This lack of advance notice or user consent undermines contract enforceability and could be deemed unconscionable under U.S. and EU consumer protection laws, leading to contract voidance and regulatory penalties.

Legal Explanation

Immediate effectiveness of modifications without notice or consent is likely unenforceable and may be deemed unconscionable. Advance notice and explicit user acceptance for material changes are required by many consumer protection laws, enhancing enforceability and fairness.

4. Governing Law and Venue Clause Lacks Clarity for International Users The governing law clause mandates Arizona law and venue, regardless of user location. For international users, especially in the EU or UK, this may conflict with mandatory consumer protection statutes and data protection regulations, rendering the clause partially unenforceable and creating jurisdictional uncertainty.

Legal Explanation

The original clause disregards mandatory consumer protection and data protection laws applicable to international users, risking unenforceability and regulatory penalties. The revision acknowledges the primacy of mandatory local laws, reducing jurisdictional risk and improving compliance.
