Somebody brought to my attention today that according to German laws, you're obligated to post an impressum/imprint on your website, even when it's just one for private use! So far, I thought this was only for business pages, but meanwhile, also private individuals have to do this. This means you're obliged by the laws to post your full name, adress, and even phone number! I couldn't believe that, but then I did some research and found out that it's really true, and if you don't have these infos on your site, you can be fined.
I'm sure this is just a German law (so typical!!! )! How are these things handled in other countries, like the US, or Canada?
I've added these infos to most of my sites now, but I'm not comfortable with it. I was even thinking about deleting all my pages instead, but I worked on them for so many years, and it's been a lot of work. However, I'm really upset!
