It says its targeting "commercial," and websites that offer services online. Are you selling anythign online If not, than this doesnt affect you... yet. It will affect you when you decide to start selling something online. So read up. If you are a web host, broadcast, or database firm you are only responsible for your privacy policy. You are not held responsible for anyone that you are hosting under you. But do inform them of this new law. What do you have to do You have to that the information you collect online from visitors matches up with your privacy policy. This means that you will have to be reading and reviewing your policy often to make sure that you dont come across any problems with users and how you use the information you are given. You will also have to make that privacy policy link more visible. Cause if the users cant see it or find it than to them it most likely doesnt exhist. So no more of those fine print privacy policy notes at the bottom of websites. How long do I have The law is in motion now. It started July 1st, 2004. You should look into moving that privacy policy link up with the rest of your links.
