Specified Commercial Transactions Act disclosure page checklist for Japanese online shops

What it does

Lists which mail-order disclosure items are present on a Japanese shop's disclosure page and what a human still needs to review.

• Checks seller name, representative, address, phone, e-mail, price, extra fees, payment method, payment timing, delivery timing, returns and cancellation, and the defect policy
• Handles conditional items: subscriptions, software operating environment, offer deadline, quantity limits
• Gives each item a status (present, label only, disclosed on request, on request although not omittable, placeholder text, not found) with the line number and the text it found
• Flags vague returns wording ("case by case") and values that only point to another page
• Includes a reference table based on the Consumer Affairs Agency mail-order guide, with which items may or may not be omitted under a disclosure-on-request clause

How to use

python scripts/tokushoho_check.py https://shop.example.jp/law --md result.md --dump-text lines.txt
python scripts/tokushoho_check.py saved-page.html --subscription --digital

A URL is fetched with a single GET request; nothing is submitted. For JavaScript-rendered pages, save the HTML from a browser and pass the file.

Requirements

• Python 3 (standard library only)
• Network access when checking a URL

Caveats

• Not legal advice. It never says compliant or illegal; it reports presence and items to review. Confirm with the official guidance or a professional.
• Matching is label-based, so menus or unrelated text can be picked up; the agent checks each line number against the page text.
• The final order confirmation screen is not checked by the script.
