ETH 1.96ETH 1.96 Attribution requirements. ETH 1.96(1)(b)(b) “Legible” means each individual letter or character is clearly printed so it can be easily understood. ETH 1.96(1)(c)(c) “Readily accessible” means capable of being seen without much difficulty. ETH 1.96(2)(2) Specifications for all attributions. The language required by s. 11.1303, Stats., shall be presented in a clear and conspicuous manner that gives the recipient of the communication adequate notice of the identity of the person making the payment or reimbursement or assuming responsibility for the communication.

Written communications shall include an attribution containing the language required by s. 11.1303, Stats., in a manner that is readable, legible, and readily accessible. It is prima facie evidence that an attribution is readable, legible, and readily accessible if the attribution meets all of the following requirements: ETH 1.96(3)(b)(b) It meets the following applicable minimum font size: ETH 1.96(3)(b)1.1. An attribution on a written communication measuring no larger than 8.5 inches by 11 inches must be printed in at least 10-point font; ETH 1.96(3)(b)2.2. An attribution on a written communication that is larger than 8.5 inches by 11 inches, but is not larger than 24 inches by 36 inches, must be printed in at least 12-point font; or ETH 1.96(3)(b)3.3. An attribution on any other written communication must appear in letters that are at least four percent of the vertical height of the written communication.

ETH 1.96(5)(h)1.1. Sponsors of such small online ads or similar electronic communications must be able to establish, at the Commission’s request, that including the attribution on the ad or communication was not possible due to size or technological constraints. ETH 1.96(5)(h)2.2. The link required by this paragraph must direct the recipient of the small online ad or similar electronic communication to the attribution in a manner that is readable, legible, and readily accessible, with minimal effort and without viewing extraneous material. ETH 1.96(5)(h)3.3. The automatic display required by this paragraph must display to the recipient of the small online ad or similar electronic communication the attribution in a manner that is readable, legible, and readily accessible. Examples of acceptable automatic display mechanisms include, but are not limited to, non-blockable pop-ups, roll-overs, or other similar mechanisms. ETH 1.96 HistoryHistory: CR 19-035: cr.
