Here is what Orkin has to say. I am fearless, so this I probably wouldn't even notice or care, but others are more sensitive. Hope this helps!

Usually they don't bite unless you disturb a female in her web and she feels threatened.
HTH
Probably, but they are not dangerous and they eat tiny bugs. Learn to recognize a brown recluse, a black widow spider, and any other poisonous critters that are dangerous where you live. Be careful and best wishes 😇
No, garden spiders do not bite unless they are provoked... they're pretty mellow as far as spiders go (unless you are a bug)! They are not poisonous to humans. These incredibly beautiful spiders, especially the yellow orb weaver, weave unusual zig-zag webs that are very strong. They are very important to our garden industry but, unfortunately, as their habitats are disappearing, their numbers are dwindling. So fascinating.
Even if they do, they aren't dangerous, so don't worry!
