Groups vs. Tags

Groups

Used to group one or more contracts together for a specific use case. An example is you may place the Terms of Use contract in both the United States Sign Up group and the Canada Sign Up Group. This provides two different contexts for presenting one contract (Terms of Use) along with additional contracts for the specific Group.

Tags

Tags can be used to dynamically identify which clickwrap(s) to present to a user. An example is if you have a single webpage that you display in multiple languages and need to pull in the appropriate language based on the language of the user. You can use tags to query for the appropriate contracts in the appropriate languages and present them dynamically to the user for acceptance.

NOTE: PactSafe recommends using Groups for easily organizing contracts into logical groupings. Tags should only be used, when necessary, for more complex use cases when clickwrap agreements need to be presented dynamically on a page.
