I know that declaring a definition to be wrong is quite a stretch, but I think a more agreeable definition of what is a law depends of the corresponding jurisdiction. In Germany, certain rules made in a process by the Bundestag are, by definition of the constitution, a Gesetz, and ’Gesetz’ is the german word for ’law’. So, these laws wouldn’t necessarily be laws following your definition, which makes your definition unacceptable, I’d say.
What you are calling ’law’ I would maybe call ’enforced law’ or ’enforcable law’(by whom?). Well, whether the rules in question are of this kind is what will be found out in court.
