What Colorado asks of a business with a website

Some homework before launch:

  • A federal rule (16 CFR Part 465) makes it unlawful to write, buy or sell fake reviews and testimonials, so the reviews on a business website have to be real. 16 CFR Part 465

This is general information, not legal advice. Your county, your town hall or an attorney can confirm what applies to you.
