ToS;DR, a free open-source site, turns privacy-policy fine print into A-E grades you can actually read
eyishazyer · x · 2026-09-16
ToS;DR (Terms of Service; Didn't Read) is a free, open-source project that distills terms-of-service and privacy policies into simple ratings, answering what data a service collects, who it shares it with, how it can use your content, whether it tracks you across sites, and what happens to your data when you leave.
- Volunteers review each service and assign A–E grades; the individual findings behind each grade are visible, not just a score
- A browser extension shows a site's rating while you browse
- Previously featured by TIME, The Verge, WIRED and others
