BGH: Werbung mit durchschnittlicher Sternebewertung.
Abstract
The article "BGH: Advertising with average star ratings" deals with the legal aspects of advertising with average star ratings from customers. It discusses whether the breakdown by individual star classes constitutes essential information. The Federal Court of Justice (BGH) has ruled that the indication of the total number and the time period of the ratings is sufficient, without the breakdown by star classes. The decision is based on the Act against Unfair Competition (UWG).
