Consumer contracts too often present clauses that are potentially unfair to the subscriber. We present an experimental study where machine learning is employed to automatically detect such potentially unfair clauses in online contracts. Results show that the proposed system could provide a valuable tool for lawyers and consumers alike.

Abstract
Consumer contracts too often present clauses that are potentially unfair to the subscriber. We present an experimental study where machine learning is employed to automatically detect such potentially unfair clauses in online contracts. Results show that the proposed system could provide a valuable tool for lawyers and consumers alike.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
