Legal compliance means making sure your content follows all relevant laws, regulations and organizational policies. This includes:

• Data protection laws 

• Privacy and confidentiality standards

• Mandatory disclosures and legal guidelines

 

In simple terms, legal compliance ensures your writing is accurate, responsible and safe to publish. This reduces the risk of legal issues or misuse of sensitive information.
