Registration and privacy basics for South Kyme

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 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
• Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine.

1. Sign up online in roughly 5 minutes, then email us your logo and a few photos.
2. You get a temporary link within 3 working days, so you can click through every page and ask for changes by email.
3. Once you say it is ready, you pay the first month and we publish it on your domain.

Once the site is live, the technical side stays with us, and the changes you email in are included.
