In today’s ever-growing digital economy, companies are moving their businesses online. Online platforms are key drivers of this digital market, allowing businesses to extend their operations and reach out to clients and consumers on a global scale.
The European Commission is very active in trying to create a digital single market, by providing better access to digital goods and services, ensuring the right conditions for innovative services and maximising the potential of the digital economy. Consumer rights, contractual clauses, direct marketing and data protection, licensing agreements, etc., all need to be assessed in light of the legislative framework that has been adopted with the aim of eliminating obstacles linked to the online environment.
As the European Commission’s Digital Services Act package will entail new rules affecting e-commerce, the online success of your business depends on a legal partner who keeps its finger on the pulse and closely follows the new legislative developments in this area.
Thanks to & DE BANDT’s multi-disciplinary approach, our lawyers can handle all aspects of your online business, such as setting up your online ordering process and drafting terms and conditions, ensuring compliance with consumer rights and data protection legislation, tackling any competition issues that may arise, optimising your contractual framework with your partners, etc. Our lawyers also handle all legal challenges arising in the fast-changing context of ISP liability and the new obligations imposed on online platforms.
