Hello of band of web wizards!
I am looking for a resource for current website legal requirements for
the
USA and UK. I did the typical Google search and found a site for the
UK,
but it's second-hand info. I don't have a definitive resource for the
USA.
Specially, I am looking to write privacy statements, legal
non-mumbo-jumbo,
and check current accessibility issues. I also want to be compliant
of any
other laws I may not know details about, such as the one about asking
before
you put someone's name/email on an email newsletter subscription.
Any suggestions? I'm probably missing something downright obvious.
