Although it's certainly not the best user experience, I've seen many terms-of-service checkboxes with links to the terms of service. E.g.

<label>
  <input type="checkbox" />
  I agree to the <a href="tos.html">terms of service</a> for using this product.
</label>

I imagine if I poked around the sites I used I'd be able to turn up quite a few URLs illustrating this.
