Websites operating in the United States are obligated to adhere to a range of legal obligations, including:
Data Security: Ensuring data security is imperative to comply with data protection laws and establish trust with site visitors.
Accessibility: Websites are required to follow disability laws related to public accommodations, encompassing online platforms. Failure to comply could result in legal action and harm the reputation of a brand.
Privacy Policy: Websites that gather, store, process, or handle personal data of visitors must have a privacy policy in place.
Cookie Consent: Data privacy regulations mandate that websites inform users and obtain their consent before placing cookies on their devices.
GDPR: US-based websites that capture and process personal data of EU residents must adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This involves obtaining explicit consent from EU users before collecting their data.
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA): This data privacy law impacts the privacy and notification standards for websites accessible by California consumers.

ADA Website Compliance Deadlines

ADA Title II Update their requirements for 2024: All State & Municipal Websites Must be WCAG Compliant by 2026/27.  In April 2024, the Department of Justice completed their revision of ADA Title II pertaining to the accessibility requirements for states, cities, and towns. It is now established that all websites, software as a service (SaaS), mobile applications, and digital documents must comply. Therefore, all governmental bodies, public schools, libraries, parks and recreation departments, among others, are mandated to adhere to the current WCAG standards by 2026 for entities exceeding 50,000 individuals and by 2027 for those with fewer.
