This dataset consolidates the contractual documents of 382 service providers, in all their versions that were accessible online between October 4, 2012 and May 25, 2026.

This dataset is tailored for datascientists and other analysts. You can also explore all these versions interactively on [https://github.com/OpenTermsArchive/contrib-versions](https://github.com/OpenTermsArchive/contrib-versions).

It has been generated with [Open Terms Archive](https://opentermsarchive.org).

### Dataset format

This dataset represents each version of a document as a separate [Markdown](https://spec.commonmark.org/0.30/) file, nested in a directory with the name of the service provider and in a directory with the name of the terms type. The filesystem layout will look like below.

```
