Hello!
The company has a website in Russian and English, it also has offices in the USA, Europe, Russia, the company itself is registered in the USA. The question is, what data should be displayed on the site so as not to violate European and American laws?
I saw that cookies need to be painted for what they are responsible for and where. In general, this question is interesting, maybe where there is an article on this issue, I will be grateful.

Well, there is no such thing, without which it is impossible. Simply no.
In which case, you can simply note that this is not another site, but the same one, but in a foreign language.
In addition, Europe is softer ... If you are suspected of fraud (you sell iPhones, and there is no office - for example), then first they will contact and talk. I advise you to always pay attention to such appeals, even if they are very polite and intrusive. They will tell you what and how to do and add to the site. And there is no such thing as being blocked by the decision of the local court of some Cartagena anywhere and everywhere.

at a minimum - disclose the contact details of the office
further - see the laws of specific countries on the disclosure of information about the company in open sources, etc.

"...maybe where there is an article on this issue, I will be grateful .." You are unlikely to find an article on this matter, except for the criminal one :-), since the rules are slightly different, but there are general requirements for Europe:
1. How is it right here noticed above - cookie warnings. And not just "we use cookies, but also the conditions and description of their use. You can peep on my website http://deglight.com/about-us/cookies/
2. Legal and contact information about the company. Where, how and by whom registered, legal address, name and status of the head Registration number, and preferably European tax numbers (for VAT and customs), if any
3. If the company offers some products for open sale, delivery conditions, guarantees, etc. are required Something like an offer contract.
4. Disclaimer.
5. Further - depends on the form of ownership of the company. If this is an open JSC, then there may be a requirement to disclose information, but here it is very individual, it depends on the country of jurisdiction of the company, and legal advice is needed. If CJSC, LLC, Ltd, Sro, etc. - you can not bathe.
In addition, it is desirable to be ready to respond to claims for the use of third-party content (images, video, etc.) Claims are both on the case, and sometimes from trolls.
