Regulations and Legislation relating to online trading
You probably know most of the legal requirements that apply to your business premises and practices: you probably aim to comply with all of them. Your Website is no different: you need to comply with all the various rules, laws and guidelines that apply. If you don’t comply, you not only run the risk of having dissatisfied customers but you also face possible prosecution and penalties.
Every Website we build at FLAME:Media complies with all applicable legal requirements.
If you already have a Website, we can review it in detail to assess its compliance with legislation and regulations. We’ll tell you exactly what you need to do to comply, and can help carry out any work that is necessary.
