Legal Notice
Article 5 of the EU e-Commerce Directive (2000/31/EC) — implemented in the Netherlands as Article 3:15d of the Civil Code, and in Germany as the Impressumspflicht — requires anyone providing an "information society service" to make certain details easily, directly and permanently accessible. A blog with a public website counts, whether or not you charge for anything.
Service provider
[YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME] (the natural person or the registered company name)
[Street address — a PO box is not sufficient] [Postcode, City] [Country]
Contact
Email: [address that is actually monitored] [Telephone, if you have a business line]
An email address is mandatory. It must allow direct and effective communication — a contact form alone does not satisfy this.
Registration details
If you operate as a registered business, these are required. If this site is a purely personal, non-commercial blog, they generally are not — delete this section if so.
Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number: [number] VAT identification number: [NL……B..]
