neutral  AllegroTrans: (To PG: terms and conditions is NOT a tautology); I would like to see what follows the heading but have some doubts as to whether this is mere "acknowledgement"; more likely to be acceptance, making the contract binding

agree  mrrafe: "Acceptance" in US law has legal significance lacking in "acknowledgment" or "recognition." It's the process by which an offer becomes a contract.

  -> Thanks. it's because you can say things in English like "I acknowledge what you said but I don't accept it" that I prefer "acceptance" like you.
agree  Josephine Cassar: Maybe 'confirmation' of general terms & conditions too? But yours is fine too
