And let\u2019s be honest: even just hearing the word imprint or legal notice can feel a bit intimidating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But don\u2019t worry &#8211; creating one is easier than it sounds. You just need to keep a few important things in mind. In this article, we\u2019ll explain what those are \u2014 clearly and without any legalese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Important: We\u2019re not lawyers, and this isn\u2019t legal advice. But we\u2019ll show you what to look out for and how to safely create your imprint, for example, with the Jimdo Legal Text Generator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Is an Imprint?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An imprint is a dedicated page on your website that shows who\u2019s behind the site \u2014 who&#8217;s responsible and how they can be reached. You might also hear it called a \u201cLegal Notice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For personal websites, that means your name and contact details. For business websites, it&#8217;s your company information. You\u2019ll also need to name a person responsible \u2014 usually the owner or CEO \u2014 so visitors know who&#8217;s in charge of the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Jimdo, we use the term <em>Imprint<\/em> by default. That\u2019s why you\u2019ll see this label across your Jimdo website and in our in-product editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Is an Imprint Important?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In most countries, it\u2019s legally required to have an imprint, so visitors can see who\u2019s responsible for the site and how to get in touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A complete imprint:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Protects you from legal warnings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Builds trust with your audience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fulfills legal requirements<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do I Need an Imprint for My Website?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes &#8211; Almost all websites that are accessible to the public require an imprint.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This includes websites that promote a business, offer services, or publish content. The only websites that may not need an imprint are those that are private and not accessible to the public, for example, password-protected websites. As soon as you offer services or products, or publish content on your website, it must include an imprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What About Freelancers or Small Business Owners?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Same here: If you&#8217;re acting in a business capacity, you need an imprint \u2014 no matter how small your business is or how much revenue you make. Some countries may have exceptions, but it\u2019s safest to include one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Needs to Be Included in the Imprint?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>These are usually required:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Full name or company name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Address<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Contact info (email, phone number)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Authorized representative (e.g., managing director)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on your legal form or industry, you may also need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Trade register and registration number<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>VAT ID<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Responsible court<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Professional regulations (e.g., for doctors, lawyers)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t just copy someone else\u2019s imprint.<\/strong> It\u2019s better to use a generator like the Jimdo Legal Text Generator created in partnership with Trusted Shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where Should the Imprint Be on My Website?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It has to be <strong>easy to find and accessible at all times<\/strong>. Ideally, link to it in the footer \u2014 clearly labeled as \u201cImprint\u201d or \u201cImpressum\u201d and visible on every page. That\u2019s the simplest and safest solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Jimdo, this footer link is created automatically \u2014 all you have to do is add the content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Do I Add an Imprint to My Jimdo Website?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>For Dolphin users<\/strong>: Edit the Imprint page directly in the editor or use the built-in Legal Text Generator from Trusted Shops. It creates your Imprint and keeps it automatically updated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>For Creator users<\/strong>: Add a new subpage for the Imprint or activate the Basic Legal Protection feature from Trusted Shops.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Does It Have to Be Called \u201cImprint\u201d?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. The link has to be clearly labeled as such. Legal Notice is also viable. \u201cContact\u201d or similar terms are not enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Happens If I Don\u2019t Have an Imprint?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not having a legal notice can lead to legal risks \u2014 like warnings, fines, or takedown notices. In Germany, for example, businesses risk legal warnings (\u201cAbmahnungen\u201d) and fines if an imprint is missing or incomplete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other EU countries also require legal notice pages, but the penalties may vary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can I Have Someone Else Create It for Me?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes \u2014 there are two ways:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Via a lawyer<\/strong> \u2013 safe but often expensive<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>With a generator<\/strong> \u2013 like the one from Jimdo &amp; Trusted Shops \u2013 fast, affordable, and always up to date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why Do Imprint Requirements Vary by Country?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The rules are based on an EU directive, but every country implements it differently in its national laws. That\u2019s why the requirements aren\u2019t the same everywhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Can My Imprint Match My Brand Tone?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as all required details are clear and complete, you can keep your usual tone of voice. But remember: legal compliance comes first. A funny or overly creative imprint might lead to misunderstandings, so it\u2019s better to keep it straightforward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2139\ufe0f Important: This guide is for general information only and does not replace legal advice. The requirements for your imprint may vary depending on your country, business activity, and legal structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Example for Your Imprint (Template)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re based in Germany:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Imprint in accordance with \u00a7 5 TMG\n\n&#91;Company Name \/ First Name Last Name]\n\n&#91;Street and house number]\n\n&#91;ZIP code and City]\n\n&#91;Country]\n\nContact:\n\nPhone:\n\nEmail:\n\nTrade Register: &#91;Court and registration number, if available]\n\nVAT ID: DE &#91;xxx xxx xxx], if applicable\n\nManaging Director: &#91;Name]\n\nResponsible according to \u00a7 55 para. 2 RStV: &#91;Name]\n\nOnline dispute resolution: https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/consumers\/odr\/<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Do I Need an Imprint for Social Media?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, you need one there too \u2014 unless your profile is purely private. Usually, a link to your website\u2019s imprint is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how to link it properly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Facebook<\/strong>: Use the \u201cImprint\u201d section under \u201cInfo\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instagram<\/strong>: Use a tool like Linktree<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>X (formerly Twitter)<\/strong>: Add the link to your bio<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>An imprint isn\u2019t a big deal, but it\u2019s a must-have for any website.
