Many aspects of the Australian Consumer Law can be relevant to the everyday activities of individuals and businesses, such as misleading and deceptive conduct, unfair contract terms or consumer guarantees. If you run a business that sells, markets or advertises to consumers, it is essential for you to understand your obligations under the Australian Consumer Law, the steps you should take to comply with the legislation, as well as the consequences for non-compliance.
With the advertising and marketing landscape now extending to social media, it can be increasingly difficult for a business to understand what conduct is and isn’t permissible when selling their goods and services. LegalVision’s consumer lawyers can answer your questions and explain, in simple terms, how your business can legally advertise and market to customers.
