What Wyoming asks of a business with a website

These are some of the Wyoming and federal rules a small business with a website runs into:

• A contact form collects personal information, and Wyoming has a data breach law with deadlines for notifying the people affected. W.S. 40-12-502
• Wyoming charges a mandatory statewide 4% sales and use tax, and counties may add voter-approved local pennies, so the total rate runs roughly from 4% to 8%. Wyoming Department of Revenue, Excise Tax Division

Rules change and details vary by business; this is general information, not legal advice.
