Running a website from Jewett: the Texas rules

Before your website goes live, it helps to have the basics of the business in order.

• A contact form collects personal information, and Texas has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. Tex. Bus. & Com. Code Section 521.053
• Texas charges a 6.25% state sales and use tax, and local jurisdictions may add up to 2%, for a maximum combined rate of 8.25%. Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts
• Texas has no state-level general license, but city and county permits still apply, so check the local county and city government where the business operates. In Jewett, that means asking Leon County and the City of Jewett. Official source
