How to get Terms & Conditions consent in a GDPR-compliant way

In order to have your members agree to your Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy, or any other legal document, you'll need to create a custom signup field.

Here are the steps to set this up:

2. Add this wording to a new Terms & Conditions page on your website (or simply upload a PDF version of the wording to your website).
