Website advertising rules for architects in Germany

Architects answer to their regulator's advertising and conduct rules as well as to privacy law. This is what Berufsordnung der Architektenkammer Rheinland-Pfalz §6 (Werbung) means for your website: testimonials, claims, fees, titles and the details you must show. It applies only to sites of that profession, and only where you are licensed. For the general laws every site in Germany must follow, see Germany's laws.

Applies to licence holders in Rhineland-Palatinate only.
