Generally, speaking, though one can draw inspiration from a copyrighted work one cannot copy the work, therefore you cannot copy any policy or contract that was written by someone else. If you are generating revenue from the site it behooves you to consider hiring an attorney who is able to create the necessary agreements and otherwise advice you how to best protect your interests.

My firm is dedicated to entrepreneurs and we offer substantially discounted fees (as in half price) for early stage startups. Please contact me at your earliest convenience.
