Legal Notice
- Website Terms of Use - or the publicly available aspects of the website.
- Terms and Conditions or Customer Relationship Terms. Some people call these Terms of Service, Terms of Use, or Terms of Sale. Whatever you call them, they manage the relationship with your customer. You also want the terms to be broad enough to cover the provision of both goods and services. They deal with issues like the use of the online store, the protection of the website and intellectual property, the disclaimer of warranties, the giving of guarantees, the limitation of liability, the applicable law, and the conclusion of the actual agreement.
- A Return Policy specifying the manner in which products can be returned.
- A Privacy Policy is also essential. It should specify in detail what personal information about your customers you collect and how you process it in order to fulfill their orders. It is also the mechanism by which you obtain the consent of your customers to process their personal information.
- A Security Policy sets out the security measures that you have in place regarding your online store.
- A Copyright Notice should appear in the footer of your online store to ensure that people are aware that all of your rights relating to your online store are reserved.
