How to create a javascript "legal disclaimer" window that populates upon receiver opening up file?

I am trying to format my pdf file so that when pdf is opened by the receiver, they have a popup window legal notice they need to click to accept prior to accessing file. It reads as a javascript window-- see image below. How do you create this?

Don't forget people can turn off JavaScript. This may be a useful reminder but cannot be a verifiable contract.

      other alternatives could include using layers or form fields. But all approaches will require the use of JavaScript.
