Do you already have your website active or your e-commerce ready to sell, but you still don't know the legislation applicable to websites and online stores? This is perfect because today we are going to talk about laws, rules and even good practices that you must follow to clearly inform visitors and guarantee user security.
Legislation applicable to websites
Let's start with the legislation applicable to phone number list websites, although we are not including in this group websites dedicated to online sales, which we will discuss in detail later.
Information on the use of cookies
Before we talk about the obligation to inform you about the use of cookies, it is important to explain that cookies are small files stored on users' computers and other devices with Internet access, via the browser, and which collect information related to their preferences (except personal data).
Cookies are used to improve the user's performance and browsing experience and are therefore used on many websites (including yours?). However, while consent was previously implicit, with the new requirements of the European Union (Law no. 46/2012) website owners are required by law to display a notice stating that they use cookies.
Therefore, if you do not have technical knowledge about how your website was built, but want to comply with the legislation applicable to websites, assume that you use cookies and place this indication on your website, so that the user can give their consent for the collection of data. And while we're at it, check that your cookies only store the strictly necessary data and nothing more than that!
