UK legal requirements for your commercial web site
Running a commercial web site from a UK base? You need to be aware of changes to the UK's e-commerce regulations that were introduced at the end of last December without much publicity. Your web site now needs to provide: * Name of provider * Email address at which you can be contacted * Registered office and geographic information * Regsitration number and place of registration * VAT number if you're VAT registered * Prices with clear VAT and delivery costs information Other regulations apply to Email, SMS, Caching, online contracts, liabiities, etc. I'm no expert on these matters - so have a look at out-law.com A quick check confirms that, yes, we have all that information here, and more too. Really, the new law is bringing things into line with best, reputable practise. There's a raft of other regulations too - the disability discrimination act, copyright, libel, racial and religious discrimination, decency, distance selling regulations and so on ... all need to be taken into account too. More resources under the commecial aspects of running a website which you and all your developers and content providers ought to be aware of.
