However, while every website has its unique personality, all business websites need to comply with certain minimum requirements. These will include having some minimum Terms of Website ,an Acceptable Use Policy they will also need to set out a Privacy Policy and provide a suitable Notice on the Use of Cookies .

If you wish to use them without taking advice first, then you do so entirely at your own risk. These documents are of general application and it is likely that you will need specific terms and conditions to address how your business actually works.
