Has your Website Had a Legal Audit?
If you or your company operate a commercial website, chances are there are a number of regulations that apply to your site. Most website owners are unaware of the many risks related to the legal
environment in which their websites operate. This can creates a
risky situation, and can generate expensive disputes.
At Pepper Law Group, we employ a detailed legal audit methodology which detects, analyzes, and treats the legal risks inherent in most commercial websites.
Examples of our analysis include:

- The ability of employees or third parties to claim ownership rights in the website's content
- How website links and metatags are used, and whether there is a potential for trademark infringement
- Whether certain protections need to be place based upon the website's target audience?
- The existence and nature of website terms and conditions and privacy policies and they're enforceability
- Liability from third party advertisers, content, and software providers
With the ever-changing legal landscape associated with the Internet, it is vitalthat companies remain vigilant and quickly address the various risks that affect commercial website owners every day. Talk to us today about an audit customized specifically for your website.
