Hi, thanks for your information, I don't know how things are in Australia, the truth is, and if they are like here in Spain, my interest is to create an online store and focus it on English-speaking sites, not in Spain. Well if I can sell in any part of the world and not have problems with the farm, it would be better hehe my idea is to have everything in the United States, along with the bank account and if the registered store in Europe works and only have to declare the IRPF.
Since you mention it, how can I make the privacy policy and terms and conditions? It is something that worries me along with the data protection law, I see that you know the subject if you can help me I would appreciate it
As far as I understood, you were concerned about the GDPR and it was the main reason why you thought of setting up a business in the USA (it would be interesting to know what was your decision on this matter).
Anyway, I'd like to note that the provisions of GDPR apply only to those who are aimed at the European market. In other words, if your customers were Europeans, then you would be subject to GDPR, regardless of where your business was registered.
It should also be borne in mind that for small businesses (up to 250 employees) compliance with GDPR is not a big problem. It's enough to draw up the Privacy Policies correctly (there are many free examples and even auto generators of such policies) and ensure that the principles of GDPR are followed.
Here is a shortlist of what should be included in the Privacy Policy:
- Company’s full contact details (at least, name, address, phone number, and email).
- What data you’re collecting and how you’re processing this data.
- How long the data will be stored. If you cannot provide a specific period, simply mention the criteria you use to determine such a period.
- If the data will be used, in any way, by a third-party (outside of the EU). If you’re not based in the EU, you’ll likely be transferring data in one way or another.
- If the data you collected will be shared. This may be with third-party providers/suppliers, for instance.
- Users’ rights to their personal information. You need to state the rights of the users to access, modify, erase, their data, and everything in between.
- User's right to withdraw consent.
Anyway, I would recommend getting professional legal help before deciding how and where to set up your business. I don't think that it would be much easier to run a US-registered business in your case.
