Before you publish: Vermont and federal rules

A website doesn’t need a special license, but the business behind it follows the same Vermont rules as any other.

• A contact form collects personal information, and Vermont has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. 9 V.S.A. Section 2435 (Vermont Security Breach Notice Act)
• Vermont’s sales and use tax rate is 6%, and some towns add a 1% local option tax on top of it. Vermont Department of Taxes
