Legal Information
In case if a court defines that a consumer complaint constitutes libel or defamation, the mentioned consumer would be held legally responsible for
damages to the reputation of the business, mentioned in complaint. Under federal law (the Communications Decency Act) ComplaintsBoard.com is not
legally responsible for the complaints that are posted, even if those complaints contain remarks that are defamatory.
However, the mentioned law does not protect the person who posted the complaints from the responsibility for the posted complaints.
