Usual constructions of spin and Clifford groups, restricted to the case where the basic quadratic space is hyperbolic, are examined as those of group schemes over a commutative ring. Not surprisingly they yield indeed smooth and reductive group schemes, but the proof involes a lot of calculation and uses a connection with Jordan pairs. Maximal tori and their associated root data are also constructed explicitly.
