We've expanded our Policy Builder with a new section for legal notices—perfect for sellers who need to display required business information.

What's New:

  • New "Legal Notice" option in your Policy Builder

  • Dedicated space for mandatory business disclosures

  • Automatically displays in the footer on your shop once added

  • Supports compliance requirements across different countries

Different Names, Same Purpose: Depending on where you're located, this might be called:

  • Impressum (Germany, Austria)

  • Legal Notice or Imprint (UK)

  • Mentions Légales (France)

  • Aviso Legal (Spain)

  • Informazioni Legali (Italy)

  • 特定商取引法に基づく表記 (Japan)

Why This Matters:

  • Meet legal requirements in the EU, Japan, and other countries that mandate business disclosure

  • Avoid potential fines when selling internationally

  • Build customer trust through transparency

  • Keep all your shop policies organized in one place

Important: Laws vary by country and business type. We've created the space, but can't provide legal advice on what to include. Check with a lawyer or your local business authority to ensure you're meeting your specific requirements.

Getting Started: Head to Shop Policies in your admin and you'll see the new Legal Notice option alongside your other policies. Not sure what to include? Our help article breaks down common requirements with examples: https://www.bigcartel.com/resources/help/article/create-legal-notice
