AppId is over the quota
Local country compliance is a question that many website owners may consider when their website deals with international clients, users and visitors to their website. This question cannot be given a definitive answer as its difficult to control access to your website, however general guidance can be suggested.
One of the most important regulations to consider with respect to other country laws and your website is your Privacy Policy. With respect to internet regulation and laws concerning the collection of information, it's the case that some countries will have no or little regulation. Other jurisdictions, particularly English speaking jurisdictions such as Singapore, the US, much of the EU and Canada do have privacy and security regulation which are similar laws to Australia.
With the nature of privacy over the internet, concerns will be the same in many countries so laws and requirements will be similar. Australia has a strict privacy policy requirements and so following Australia's policy will usually be a safe bet that if you will comply generally with most countries internet privacy requirements, however, you should always confirm this locally.
In many instances, a website will be doing business with visitors from the country of their home site. However, as a website owner, you cannot control where your visitors come from nor which countries and visitors view your website. You are best to have a strong privacy policy that has the potential to cover anticipated countries you may be likely to be doing business with.
When creating a privacy policy the safest bet is for a website to create their policy within the scope of the jurisdiction that they are in, as there is really no way of knowing or even controlling who will visit the site. Having a clearly outlined, strong and visible privacy policy that states exactly what information may be collected, the purpose, and security measures in place to ensure it is kept safe is generally the best approach.
Furthermore, if a website is engaging in the sale of a product or service with a customer from another country, the privacy policy and the terms of sale should clearly state that the sale of the product or service is governed by the laws of the country where the website is located. This is the best approach in terms of risk management; if a problem arises with the goods or services, then it will be determined by, and any action will occur in the courts of your jurisdiction or country in most instances.
