The Licence Layer of Our Terms Page: 19 Off-Site Links, 12 Hosts, 17 Distinct Link Texts
I work on OnePassApps, the team behind app.onepassapps.com. This is our own Terms page, read and counted today, 9 November 2026. Every link we publish carries tracking parameters. This post is about the other kind of link: the ones on our Terms page that point away from our own domain, at the licences and source policies behind the text our apps quote.

The aggregator is reporting on the terms page of OnePassApps, specifically the off-site links present on the page. The page contains 19 off-site links spread across 12 distinct hosts, with 17 unique link texts. These links lead to various licences and source policies that govern the use of text and data within the app. The majority of the links (eight) point to creativecommons.org, covering five different licence pages.
The remaining hosts link to upstream policies such as arXiv API terms, NIST public-information reuse policy, NSF digital policy, and others. The purpose of these off-site links is to clearly indicate the licensing and policy behind the text used in the app, providing transparency to the users.
