Companies, by law, are required to educate and warn the customer of all the risks and dangers associated with using their product. Anything from a choking hazard to serious injury or death, must be covered in the warning and safety pamphlets.

Would this law apply for a website's product, such as e-merchandise? Like malfunctioning e-merch; such as techincal problems, especially if they knew they could happen? If not, can someone give me a link to a website with Californian laws for online business and warning/educating consumers?

  1. > Companies, by law, are required to educate and warn the customer of all the risks and dangers associated with using their product.

    On what planet?

    Maybe someone mistranslated "caveat emptor" for you.


  2. Yes, you are required to post warnings about your product that you are selling on your website, both current warnings and past warnings about the product and where to find more information about the product in question.

    If its a recalled item, you also must post a warning about the recall on your website.

    That would be fraud if you dont do so.
