LO2 - Legal and ethical

Since my website includes an online shop it is important to protect the data of those using the shop. Security is required to protect the data of those using the online shop something that could help to protect peoples information is SSL (Secure sockets layer) It is typically used for email clients to create a secure link between the server and the user so that no one else can access the information on the page. SSL allows information such as login details and credit card numbers to be transferred securely.

In terms of copyright, I don't think that anyhthing I have used on my website needs permission to use as the images I used on the site I took myself and the Small Machines logo was given to me by the owner.

In terms of revenue I think that the site could make more money if toy shops and places that might stock small machines products were allowed to advertise on the website, this would allow the website to make more money from those advertisments. Places like 'The Entrtainer' toy shop on the moor or even bigger places like 'Toys are us' could advertise on the site.
