The legal basics for Cheswardine businesses online

Selling or advertising online does not change the rules, but a few rules often come up:

  • A limited company has to be registered with Companies House before it starts trading; registering online costs £100. GOV.UK: register a limited company
  • You must not send marketing emails or texts to individuals without specific consent; there is a limited exception for your own previous customers, often called the soft opt-in. ICO: email marketing

Every business is different, so treat this as general information, not legal advice, and check the official pages linked above.
