The legal basics for Albrighton businesses online

Some homework for Albrighton 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
  • 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

Details vary by business, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
