Before you publish: rules that apply in England

Some homework for Hall Green businesses before the website goes live:

• Organisations, including sole traders, that use personal information need to pay a data protection fee to the ICO, although many can rely on an exemption; the tier 1 fee is £52. ICO: data protection fee
• You cannot set non-essential cookies on your website before the visitor has consented to them, and that consent must be actively and clearly given. ICO: cookies
• When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling
