Advertising and Marketing Basics
Under the law, claims in advertisements must be truthful, cannot be
deceptive or unfair, and must be evidence-based. For some specialized
products or services, additional rules may apply.
FTC Disclosures that are required to prevent an advertisement from
being deceptive, unfair, or otherwise violative of a Commission rule,
must be presented clearly and conspicuously.Whether a disclosure meets this standard is measured by its performance — that is, how consumers actually perceive and understand the disclosure within the context of the entire ad.
The key is the overall net impression of the ad — that is, whether the claims consumers take from the ad are truthful and substantiated. If a disclosure is not seen or comprehended, it will
not change the net impression consumers take from the ad and therefore cannot qualify the claim to avoid a misleading impression.
