Running a website from Kirby: the Wyoming rules

Having a website brings no special license, but a few apply to many Kirby businesses:

• A business that conducts business in Wyoming and holds computerized personal identifying information about a Wyoming resident must investigate promptly after becoming aware of a breach and, if misuse has occurred or is reasonably likely, notify the affected Wyoming residents as soon as possible. W.S. 40-12-502
• Wyoming charges a mandatory statewide 4% sales and use tax, and counties may add voter-approved local pennies, so the total rate runs roughly from 4% to 8%. Wyoming Department of Revenue, Excise Tax Division
