Your Entire Business Could Be Destroyed Today If You Don't Have These Legal Documents

If you are an Affiliate Internet Marketer, or owner of a web
site running a business on the internet, you are in danger of
losing it all if you are not using the required legal documents!


Just one single complaint from one customer and your entire
business could be shut down for good!  Not to mention the
headache and huge costs of a possible court battle!


It's happened thousands of times before, and it will happen
again, you need to protect yourself against these lawsuits
today and ensure it won't happen to you!


But how You can get consultation with a lawyer, which can
cost anywhere up to 400 per hour!  You could pay for an online
service to write your legal forms, which can cost about 80 per
form, and if you run more than one website, this can turn into
thousands of dollars very very quickly!



Here is the legal documents you must have to start protecting
yourself and your business today!



1. Privacy Policy


- This essential document indicates how you collect and use
information about your visitors, without it you are opened to
problems from visitors and from Federal Government Enforcement
Agencies like the Federal Trade Commission.



2. Terms of Use & Disclaimer
 
- This document protects you in that it limits your
responsibility to the users of your website.  Without it, your
website could be shot down in an instant!
This document inclues: Licenses and Idea Submissions. Use of
the Site, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, Indemnification, Third Party
Rights, Miscellaneous...


For e.g, you can inform your visitors that:

MATERIAL ON THE SITE, INCLUDING TEXT, GRAPHICS, CODE AND/OR
SOFTWARE. They may print and download portions of material from
the different areas of the Site solely for your own non-
commercial use provided that you agree not to change or delete
any copyright or proprietary notices from the materials....


 


3. Affiliate Agreement
 
If you run an affiliate program , this form is ideal.  Allows
you to set the terms your affiliates must follow when
advertising and selling your products!



4. No-Spam Agreement


First of all, I consider spamming to be any activity whereby
you directly or indirectly transmit email messages to any email
address that has not solicited such email and does not consent
to such transmission. I also consider spamming to constitute
posting advertisements in newsgroups in violation of the terms
of participation in such newsgroup, that are off topic, or in
newsgroups that do not specifically permit advertisements.


I also consider it's spamming when advertisements are placed
on message boards or in chat rooms when they are not permitted
by the terms of participation in such message boards and chat
rooms.


In This essential document indicates, you have a strict policy
against spamming. You forbid the sending of unsolicited mass
Emails or unsolicited Emails of any kind in connection with the
marketing of your programs, products and services...


I suggest you to Protect yourself against possible spam abuse
and accusations and ensure your compliance with the latest Can-
Spam laws with this essential legal form!


 


5.Copyright Notice


Protects your content and graphics by outlining how visitors
are allowed to use them.  Without this you may find your
content and profits being stolen from you, you simply cannot be
without this simple addition to your site!


In this document you can inform your visitors that, they
acknowledge that the web page contains information and/ or
software, photographs, audio and video clips, graphics, links
and other material that are protected by copyright, trademark
or other proprietary rights of "your name" or third parties,
including but not limited to product names, logos, designs,
titles, and words or phrases which may be registered in certain
jurisdictions (collectively, the "Content").



They agree to comply with any additional copyright notices,
information, or restrictions contained in any Content available
on or accessed through . If they want to use any content of for
any reason they must obtain prior express written permission of
"you"...



6.Earnings Disclaimer


- This is a must have document if you sell marketing
information or 'How to Make Money' programs, or even just if
you run an affiliate program!  One famous internet marketer
could have used one of these before the FTC shut down his
operations a few years ago! Don't be the next one caught out!



If you are doing business on the internet, you are no doubt
doing business in the US, so no-matter where you live YOU MUST
COMPLY WITH FTC REGULATIONS!  If you continue as you are
without protecting yourself, you run the risk of losing
everything!


Remember, as your business and websites are seen by more and
more people everyday, it only becomes more and more risky to
not be legal and protected!



To inform other online marketers how to get protected, you
have my permmission to reprint this article in your newsletter
or on your web site provided you leave the resource box intact.
