My service provider sent the following out in the latest newsletter. I
was not aware of this, so in case any of you weren't aware either, I
include it here:
REGULATION ISSUE
From today, companies in the UK must include certain information on
their Web sites and in their e-mail footers or they will breach the
Companies Act and risk a fine. The minimum information needed on any
business site includes the name, geographic address and e-mail address
of the business and the legal name of the organisation with which the
customer is contracting. Also, if the business is a company, the
registered office address and the registration number. If the business
is a member of a trade or professional association, membership details,
including any registration number, should be provided. If the business
has a VAT number, it should be stated - even if the Web site is not
being used for e-commerce transactions. Prices on the site must be clear
and unambiguous and state whether they include tax and delivery costs.
