Yes, I usually read it so that I will know the dos and don'ts. It is very important to read that one. Whenever you entered a program that is the very first thing you will do. It is a must to read it. Reading the terms and services is very necessary. You will regret if you will be suspended from it if you have done something forbidden in the policy.

Well that depends on the website that I am registering with, if its not that important, I do not read Terms Of Service. I know for a fact, that most people do it as well. But when it comes to a situation where my financial information is at stake, I do read of of them one by one and repeat. I strongly believe that it is very important, even though it is waste of our precious time.

I always read the terms and conditions when I buy something if there are terms available because they are there to protect you and the seller.

I read through partially as it's always seemingly long. Most of the Terms of Service are pretty much similar so I don't think much of it.

Reading terms and services is very important for consumers. The initiative of it is to explain the contract content and to enlightened up people that may less to consenquences. Every product should have at least terms and service because that is one way of proof in which consumers can rely on.

I at least read the paragraphs about data privacy, such are the times we live in.

Never, I tried once but the length and amount of words to read is too much. Also all those technical terms sometimes are just so complicated.

Even I'm aware of the importance of reading the term of services or conditions prior to signing up to an agreement, I skip the part due to the adrenalin rush to start working on or just pretty impatient for that. I get the assumption that no harm will come to me, since at the back of my mind, there will be legal actions ready on the side if ever things go wrong.

To be honest, it is really important to read the terms of service. Then again is quite boring. I like to quickly skim through it and search for what is important to me. Besides the whole thing is very long and the words are so small. It could take hours to read through the whole thing. So I just like to read certain parts of it before I continue. So I guess you can say I partially read it. we all already know what to expect anyways.

I also don't read it.It's kind of boring to read the whole term because it's very long and besides if I already know the product I dont worry about it anymore.

I am not to much into reading the terms and services of any item or services. Until I had some trouble with a certain item that I come to realize how important it is to read these terms too. Though not the full entire message but in every item I buy I make sure to keep these documents and files for me to re check and evaluate the coverage of any issues that may arise in the future. Lesson learned so avoid encountering the same problem in the future. Take time to read them for best assurance and services.

I usually don't read the terms of service and I think most of us doesn't. It's long, boring and quite the same all the time. I would just scroll drown where it says "I accept" and then proceed to the next process. I would normally do my research first on do's and don't whenever I install a software, app etc that way you already have the idea on how things work and what to expect.

To be honest with you, I partially read the terms of service or sometimes non at all. It's very long and boring to read. I know there are a lot of important things that you have to learn from reading them but the inner side of me tells me not to.

Normally people are not willing to read the TOS before being suspended or facing any serious issue. Most of the people think of it as a waste of time. So they ignore and when they are in any kind of trouble regarding the account suspension, they feel the importance of getting introduced with the TOS.

Honestly I just read at the beginning and ended up installing it anyways. Hehe! As I've noticed generally the long written form of the Terms and Condition is the main issue of why people skip reading them. But apparently it is constructed purely to inform and warn customers and to protect themselves legally. So best thing to do is to try to read them and maybe it can save us a little trouble in the future.

I don't personally read terms of services because it's too long and time consuming. And sometimes the terms and services are just self explanatory. Without reading it, you know what it is trying to say. Not being intelligent or something, we just all know about it. And it's little boring reading it. And I do believe that 9 out of 10 peoples in this world don't read the terms and services. Especially the millennials.

Most of the time, I do not read the terms of service especially if it is long. I am forced to read it if what I am applying is quite strange. For example, the terms of service in paypal. Of course, I should read the whole terms of service because I am afraid that if I get mistakes, I will be having a problem in withdrawing my money. However, for other areas such as signing up for an email address, I do not read the terms and conditions anymore, believing that they are almost the same with others.

When I was buying a hosting package from Namecheap, I read TOS. Well, I did not read each line, but I did read TOS. Not just for web hosting, I read TOS everytime I create an account on a website. You should always play safe. I once registered on a writing site. The writing site had mentioned on its TOS that once the content is published, it cannot be deleted. However, I was not aware about this rule because I did not read TOS. When I tried to delete, myb account was blocked.
