What is the same law of "Consumer Protection Distance Selling Regulations 2000" for the US?

I am creating a Terms and Agreement for my website and saw this one on an australian website.

Thanks.

Thanks for the reply.

I know is an Australian law, but would I need anything similar to it for Consumers in a Terms/Agreement contract?

Regards,

Kreven

Sorry, this site is for US law only and, even at that, there are over 50 different sets of laws that you would/could be dealing with. I would suggest that you consult with legal counsel.
