No licensee shall use a badge of any kind for identification purposes, except a security guard, who, if he or she wears any type of badge, shall wear one badge on the left breast of his or her uniform and one on his or her cap while on duty as a security guard. The word "police" shall not be used in any way, on any seal, card, badge, or advertisement by the licensee.III. No person shall: (a) Provide any service requiring licensure under this chapter who is not licensed under this chapter.(b) Falsely represent that a person holds a valid license issued under this chapter.(c) Possess a license or identification card issued to another person under this chapter.(d) Engage in advertising or the use of any seal or card which, in the opinion of the commissioner, may tend to mislead the public.IV.
