Rules that apply to a Dayton business website

A few rules apply to any Dayton business that sells or advertises online:

  • 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

This is general information, not legal advice; check with the Wyoming agencies, Sheridan County, the town of Dayton or an attorney.
