Internet
Legal Audit
In the Internet Legal
Audit, we review
your use of Web sites, e-mail, newsgroups and related tools with an eye
toward potential legal pitfalls, particularly in the areas of privacy,
contracts and government regulations. The Audit includes our
recommendations for limiting liability. Additionally, it may include
considerations for limiting liability for employees' use of employer's
Internet and intranet access. Some of the areas we address, as
appropriate, in the Audit, include:
- Copyright
Ownership/Infringement: Reviewing your Web site and Web site
content, such as graphics, text, and downloadable documents or
programs.
- Trademark Ownership/Infringement:
Reviewing your use of another's mark in comparative advertising and use
of marks that may infringe another's mark such as use as or within a
domain name, in web page text, in a hypertext link, in framing, or in
meta tags.
- Privacy: Reviewing your use
of an individual's likeness, statements concerning persons, method of
collecting personal data, intended and actual uses of collected
information, policies involving collection, and notice to consumers
concerning personal data policies.
- Government Regulations:
Reviewing whether the Computer Security Act applies to your activities
and whether there are licensing requirements for your activities in
your industry, or whether there are registration or permit
requirements.
- Contracts: Reviewing your
existing contracts and the need for and use of web contracts such as
with ISP or host, Web site users, and consumers of products or
services.
