General terms and conditions

General Terms and Conditions (abbreviated to "General Terms and Conditions", also often referred to as "General Terms and Conditions", "General Terms and Conditions" or "General Terms and Conditions" in non-standard language) are all contractual terms pre-formulated for a large number of contracts which one party (the user) provides to the other party upon conclusion of a contract.

It does not matter whether the provision forms a separate external part of the contract (colloquially referred to as "the small print") or is included in the contractual document itself.
