Frequently Asked Questions
The website legal audit starts at $2,000. The final cost will depend on how complex your website is, including how many pages and plugins you have.
The biggest advantage to the Website Legal Audit service is that you get your legal pages customized by a lawyer, specifically for your business. We will look at the various plugins, services, and how you use the information collected on your website so that we can customize the privacy policy and terms of use for your site.
Yes, we will need an administrator account for your website so that we can review the underlying website code, the plugins on your site, and add or edit the necessary legal pages. After we finish, we recommend that you remove our access for security purposes.
Springboard Legal will provide you with a report that details the actions we took – add or updating the legal pages, analysis of the plugins, commentary on the code for your site, and other issues that we may identify but did not take action on as they are beyond the scope of the audit.
Depending on the size of your website, we may be able to complete the audit within 1-2 business days. However, some take longer. We guarantee you that we will review your website within one week (5 business days) of payment and prepare the report for you.
This service is an audit, showing you where the gaps and weaknesses are for your website. Thus, with the exception of the legal pages, Springboard Legal will not be fixing any of the issues identified. Some of the commonly identified issues include: theme or plugin commercial licenses, stock photo licenses or issues, not following ADA accessibility best practices, trademark or copyright conflicts, and domain ownership.
At the conclusion of the website legal audit, we will give you a roadmap of issues that you should tackle with priority indicators based on common risks. Springboard Legal may be able to help you address some of these additional issues. If not, we have contacts with many vendors that will be able to help you.
