Technically, the "Terms & Conditions" page is a content page. Like other content pages, it can be managed via the Pages section of the Admin area (Content -> Pages).

Initially, the "Terms & Conditions" page contains dummy text:

Before you make your store available to visitors, you should edit the dummy content of the "Terms & Conditions" page, replacing it with your actual terms and conditions statement. See:
