Website advertising rules for surveyors in United States (federal)
Surveyors answer to their regulator's advertising and conduct rules as well as to privacy law.

It applies only to sites of that profession, and only where you are licensed. For the general laws every site in United States (federal) must follow, see United States (federal)'s laws.
