Websites And The Law
 |
Websites and the Law Is your website legal? How many of the following questions can you answer? What information are you legally required by law to put on your website? What are the laws on copying material from websites? What can you legally do with people’s personal data sent to your website? What if your domain name is too close to someone else’s? What if someone is diverting people from your website to theirs?… and do you know what the penalties are for non-compliance? This special report deals with all the practical legal issues which arise with websites, both those sites which sell goods or services and those which advertise. “Most companies in the UK have a website. Many do not follow the legislation”. You cannot afford to be one of them. Laws and regulations are being added all the time and the risk of non-compliance is growing with them. Many of the legal rules stem from the EU – from those governing distance learning to e-commerce and data protection. Did you know, for example, that if you wanted to set up a new website, the legislation is strewn across at least 10 different directives or regulations? |
