# Configuration options:
# * <tt>:message</tt> - A custom error message (default is: "must be accepted").
# * <tt>:on</tt> - Specifies when this validation is active (default is <tt>:save</tt>, other options <tt>:create</tt>, <tt>:update</tt>).
# * <tt>:allow_nil</tt> - Skip validation if attribute is +nil+ (default is true).
# * <tt>:accept</tt> - Specifies value that is considered accepted. The default value is a string "1", which
# makes it easy to relate to an HTML checkbox. This should be set to +true+ if you are validating a database
# column, since the attribute is typecast from "1" to +true+ before validation.
# * <tt>:if</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
# occur (e.g. <tt>:if => :allow_validation</tt>, or <tt>:if => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step > 2 }</tt>). The
# method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
# * <tt>:unless</tt> - Specifies a method, proc or string to call to determine if the validation should
# not occur (e.g. <tt>:unless => :skip_validation</tt>, or <tt>:unless => Proc.new { |user| user.signup_step <= 2 }</tt>). The
# method, proc or string should return or evaluate to a true or false value.
