RE: Updated Steemit.com Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

It is deeply flawed that one must agree to the terms before having a chance to read them.

Maybe not everywhere, but that’s what happens in an iPhone/Safari environment.

Anyone who previously accepted the ToS and Privacy Policy without being able to view them will be given a new prompt today to view and accept the latest terms.

That did not happen for me. Two places to check for agreeing and a submit button. Nothing else.

Sort:  

The latest changes were tested with iOS/Safari and iOS/Chrome on multiple device types. There are links for both the Terms Of Service and Privacy Policy, and they are viewable without actually accepting them first. Can you please list your device type and/or steps to reproduce?

See the screenshot below of how it looks on iOS/Safari. There are links to both documents available. To be clear, are you saying this is not the case for you?

I saw it as text rather than as hyperlinks. I suppose it’s possible I’m mistaken if others have not had that experience.

I cannot entirely rule out pilot error.

I honestly didn’t notice the links myself... but I knew I was accepting regardless! After I clicked thru I found the terms in the side menu and gave them a scan. I’m pretty sure I just overlooked the link, but adding one of those functionalities where it won’t let you accept unless you’ve clicked both links would probably be more thorough.

Are you able to provide a screen shot of what you saw? I tried on my iPhone and it worked fine. Also, what version of iPhone device are you using?

I didn’t seem to have any choice so I clicked on agree; did not screen shot it.

iPhone SE running on iOS 11.3.1

The user experience is bit janky , you can click on the highlighted green text of TOS and it opens in new window.

I was able to read them before agreeing, but not on Apple, and maybe there was an issue with the system yesterday.
