England rules for a business with a website
A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:
- 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
- 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

If you have one, keep it: we point it to the website. If not, say so in the sign-up and we sort out the options with you by email.
Who keeps the website up to date?
Our team does it for you: email what needs changing and we take care of it, along with hosting, SSL and backups.
Do we need to meet?
It all happens by email: you send your material and any changes, and you review the website on a temporary link before anything is published.
Can I add a page for the area I cover around Owermoigne?
Of course. Email us the places you serve (for example Crossways, Wool and Puddletown) and they go on a service area page.
