In addition to creating your online store, the ND Marketplace staff will take an active role in ensuring that your store and the way in which you conduct your online business follows both university and government regulations. By briefing the Advisory Council on your requested activity, we ensure that legal, tax, licensing and data security issues are adequately addressed. However, it is still required that you as the store operator understand your duties to the customers with regards to payments, refunds, shipping, etc. prior to beginning your online business. Please review the latest version of Notre Dame’s E-commerce Guidelines . You will be required to submit a signed copy of this as part of the approval phase.
