Download Monitor Terms & Conditions

Sites that share files often need proof that visitors have seen the rules first. This extension adds a required acceptance step to your downloads. A visitor ticks a checkbox to agree to your terms and conditions, and only then does the file become available. The checkbox text can link straight to your terms page, so people can read the policy before they agree.

The extension works inside Download Monitor, so settings sit in an interface you may already know. You can require acceptance for every download on the site or limit it to chosen files. It also protects direct download URLs, so a visitor cannot skip the agreement by opening a file link. This fits sites that distribute documents, software or other digital files under set conditions.

Features

• Required terms acceptance: Visitors must explicitly agree to your terms and conditions before a file becomes available, which puts your policy in front of every person who downloads.
• Custom checkbox text: Write your own message beside the acceptance checkbox, so the wording matches your site and your policy.
• Link to your terms page: The checkbox text can include a direct link to your Terms & Conditions page, so visitors can read the full policy before agreeing.
• Site-wide enforcement: Turn on terms acceptance for every download in your library at once, which keeps the rule consistent across all your files.
• Per-file enforcement: Apply the acceptance requirement only to specific downloads, leaving other files open when they do not need an agreement.
• Direct URL protection: Direct download links cannot be used to bypass the agreement, so a file stays conditioned on acceptance.
• Works inside Download Monitor: The extension connects to the Download Monitor plugin and uses its familiar interface for settings and configuration.
• No access modal: A no access modal is part of the functionality, giving visitors a clear message when they cannot get a file yet.
