This is better known as splash pages in captive portals.
Squid will happily send a custom error page along with the auth challenge.
The way browsers work these days prevents the page being displayed unless
the auth popup fails. To get real auth the easy way is to create a two-step
process with the AUP page available without auth. Then the acceptance link
going to a place with auth challenge.
