-As of April 2018, BOINC already contains a [wiki:TermsOfUse 'terms of use' mechanism] for the BOINC client when creating a new account. If the file 'terms_of_use.txt' (filename is hardcoded) is in the root of the project directory, the contents of the file will be presented to the user when s/he creates an account. However, there is no persistent 'storing' of the datetime the user consented to the terms of use.

 The BOINC Web code does not have the ability to sign up directly (this statement has not yet been confirmed). If not, it would have to also use this terms-of-use mechanism.
