Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge (CCAK) — Question 73

A contract containing the phrase “You automatically consent to these terms by using or logging into the service to which they pertain” is establishing a contract of:

Answer options

• A. exclusion.
• B. adhesion.
• C. exclusively.
• D. execution.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, adhesion, as it refers to contracts where one party has significantly more power than the other, often resulting in non-negotiable terms. The other options, A (exclusion), C (exclusively), and D (execution), do not accurately describe the nature of contracts that dictate terms through unilateral consent upon usage.
