Where/how do I change the link to "Terms of Service" in the registration screen?

rbrahmsonrbrahmson "You may say I'm a dreamer / But I'm not the only one"NY ✭✭✭

I created a different Terms of Service using the Basic Pages application and added links to it on the site. Now I noticed that the registration screen has a link to terms of service but I couldn't find where this page resides.
1. How do I change the link in the registration screen?
2. Where does the default registration screen reside?

Any ideas?

    Looking at the registerapproval view I see this code:

    $TermsOfServiceUrl = Gdn::Config('Garden.TermsOfService', '#');
    $TermsOfServiceText = sprintf(T('I agree to the <a id="TermsOfService" class="Popup" target="terms" href="%s">terms of service</a>'), Url($TermsOfServiceUrl));
    

    So you can simply add $Configuration['Garden']['TermsOfService'] = '/yourtermsurl'; to conf/config.php and that's it!

    Thanks @R_J , that answers question #1. But I'm dying out of curiosity about questions number 2 -- where is the source text for the default terms of service? It must be in a file somewhere in the system...
