How is the acceptance of the offer on the site implemented?

Question

Law in IT

When registering on the site, there is a check box that indicates that the user accepts the terms and conditions of using the site. While the checkbox is not selected, the "Register" button is inactive and cannot be clicked. When the checkbox is selected, the "Register" button becomes active, the user can complete the registration. When you click on the "Register" button, a request is made to the backend.

Is such a restriction on the availability of the "Register" button in the UI sufficient for the correct implementation of the user's acceptance of the terms and conditions for using the site? It turns out that the fact that the request to the backend for registration has been completed implies that the user has agreed to the terms and conditions. On the backend, nothing is explicitly stored that the user has agreed to the rules. The fact that there is a user record in the database table implies that the user has agreed to the terms and conditions.

Or the fact of agreement with the terms and conditions of using the site must be somehow explicitly transmitted in the body of the request to the backend (for example, a flag with a value of true), and the database must explicitly have a table or a field in the table to store the fact that the user has accepted the conditions and rules?

Answer 1

Usually they do this: "By continuing to use ..., you accept the terms of use." No check marks or agreements, only a white link 6 pt on a white background in the bottom corner of the page to the text of the offer.
