I thought this article was clear, concise and helpful in terms of what website owners should consider for their website… legally speaking. Published by a leading New Zealand law firm, they talk about the top 10 points on the list according to them, and I’d have to say, I tend to agree! So a summary of the top 10 points are:
- Register variations of your preferred domain name
- Do you need a customer contract
- Communicate trust - and back it up technically
- Do you need a copyright notice?
- Do you need a Privacy Statement?
- Do you need a Disclaimer?
- Define the legal jurisdiction you are operating within
- Exlusion of liability?
- Disputes procedure? Resolution process?
- External linking protection
