getLastAcceptedTOS — Checking SiteLock Terms of Service acceptance status

Upon accessing their SiteLock Dashboard for the first time, the user must accept the SiteLock Terms of Service (TOS) before proceeding. The user is presented with the current version of the Terms of Service and must check a box accepting the terms. Users will also be asked to accept the Terms of Service when a new version is released.

SiteLock partners can check on Terms of Service status of their accounts, including the acceptance date and TOS version by using the getLastAcceptedTOS method.

The API endpoint is:
