Keeping Your Vacation Rental Website Compliant

Is your website CCPA compliant? The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) is a state statue to enhance privacy rights and consumer protection for residents of California. Even if your company is based in another state, your website could still be serving people in the state of California which would mean you may still need to comply. Along with avoiding lawsuits, many businesses are taking steps to ensure they comply to prepare for when it is required in their own state.

Rather than just assuming your web developer has taken this all into account, it’s important to confirm that your website’s privacy policy is meeting all the requirements. Since many of these will take corporate level adjustments to how your business operates, a compliant website will be an ongoing discussion with business owners and their website developer. As vacation rental companies grow and reach a larger audience, you can be marketing to an individual in a location with a regulation in place to ensure their privacy.

Website Accessibility is another hot topic in the web community. You want your website to meet all the proper standards as well as allow people to access your site without interruptions. Guidelines are put into place for websites to follow so that people with disabilities can use them. This will involve an ongoing process including proper image descriptions, video captioning, and proper heading tags, to name a few. Ensuring equal accessibility to all coming to your website can go a long way to show your concern for visitors.

Make sure you are securing your business’s future by partnering with a web development company that can help implement these standards and be available to make proper updates. Providing a website that adheres to the latest regulations while also being appealing and user-friendly is not out of reach when you choose the right company.
