As with anything, it seems, your website is not free from having to comply with rules and regulations of some description. And once you start looking it can be a bit of a minefield. I have started a list of regulations, legislations, guidelines and acts that should at least be considered. This is by no means an exhaustive list and I won't be able to go into them all in detail, but I will do my best to provide you some information on them. This also doesn't look at industry specific regulations.
Legislation & Regulation- Data Protection Act 1998
- The Privacy & Electronic Communications Regulations
- The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA)
- E-Commerce Regulations 2002
- W3C Validation (XHTML, HTML & CSS)
- Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2
- Companies Act 2006
