Can’t add item into checkout_index_index.xml in Magento 2

I am using a theme purchased for my magento site and therefore have the onepage checkout. I would like to add the general conditions of sale on the last part but I cannot modify the template xml file. When I add the code to display the checkbox, the purchase tunnel crashes.

checkout_index_index.xml :

Before :

       </item>
                                                        <item name="shipping" xsi:type="array">
                                                            <item name="component" xsi:type="string">Magento_Checkout/js/view/summary/shipping</item>
