This section is the regulatory picture of DomiDo. The platform is operated by Avvyland Limited, a United Kingdom company, and DomiDo sells universal interlocking outdoor blocks and fasteners through a Progressive Web App with a phased rollout — public interest and beta first, then card-verified pre-orders, then real manufacturing and shipping, then the designer marketplace. Each phase engages a different regulatory surface: a public interest beta engages consumer-protection, distance-selling, online-safety, data-protection, and accessibility regimes from day one; the no-capture pre-order phase adds payment-regulation and dispute-handling obligations; the manufacturing-and-shipping phase activates product-safety, conformity-marking, packaging, customs, and Value-Added Tax across both the United Kingdom and the destination markets; and the designer marketplace adds platform-operator reporting, intermediary-liability, content-moderation duties under the Digital Services Act, royalty withholding, and the principal-versus-agent characterisation that flips the tax and reporting posture. This section documents what applies, when, and how the platform satisfies each obligation.
The pages below are organised by regulatory regime rather than by phase, so that a reader looking for a single rule does not have to know which phase first engaged it. Physical-product safety, the workforce regime, the marketplace-operator obligations, tax and customs across the launch markets, data protection and privacy, intellectual property and patents, the cross-border tax picture, and the consolidated legal overview each have their own page; they reference each other where regimes intersect.
The Product safety page covers physical-product safety, conformity marking, packaging tax, Extended Producer Responsibility, and the not-a-toy positioning.
The Employment page covers the workforce, employment status, Pay-As-You-Earn, workplace pensions, health and safety, and the equity-only contributor model.
The Marketplace page covers designer marketplace obligations, payouts, intermediary liability, and content moderation, with the seller-of-record characterisation that underpins the entire marketplace tax surface.
The Tax and customs page covers Value-Added Tax in the United Kingdom and the European Union, Import One-Stop Shop, customs declarations, and the Windsor Framework, alongside Corporation Tax, the Research and Development regime, and capital allowances.
The Data and privacy page covers General Data Protection Regulation and United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation compliance, data classification, retention, and subject rights.
The Intellectual property and patents page covers design rights, trade marks, patents, and freedom-to-operate for the block system.
The Cross-border tax page covers the cross-border tax picture for the digital-product flow and the deferred physical-goods expansion, including royalty withholding for non-United Kingdom designers, Apple and Google in-app purchase characterisation, three-rail reconciliation, and permanent-establishment risk.
The Legal overview page is the consolidated legal picture: corporate framework, consumer-protection, contract, distance-selling, product-liability, e-commerce, payment-regulation, and dispute-resolution.
