In July, I wrote an article to submit to a project, but didn't hear back. So I decided to publish it as a zine. I write about common legal concerns that affect personal websites (Privacy Policy, Cookies, Copyright, Newsletters) and trying to give an overview that is laymen-friendly, not too in-depth, is simplifying some concepts for the sake of spreading awareness and giving some pointers for research. I can't give legal advice, as I am not a lawyer, just a student, and every website's situation is unique. I just know that there is often too much fear to even engage with possible legal obligations, and I wanted to take some of the insecurity and confusion out of it for people in the indie web. You can find the files for free here, and some deeper considerations as to why I wrote what I wrote here. For ease of access, I've attached the full zine to this post and a text-version can be found here. Enjoy! Reply via email Published 26 Aug, 2025 #2025 #bestof #data protection #top contact |
