E-Commerce

In e-commerce, questions regarding consumer protection law, data protection law, IT and telecommunications and media law regularly arise. In addition, the European legal requirements (e.g. P2B Regulation, Geoblocking Regulation) must also be considered.

If our clients wish to sell regulated products in distance selling (e.g. loans, e-money products, financial instruments) , the regulatory requirements must be implemented in the distanceselling situation (e.g. video ident procedure in anti-money laundering law, electronic signature in accordance with the eIDAS regulation for compliance with the written form, IT security).

Our clients are online merchants, platforms, marketplaces, providers of white label shops, distributors and companies from the financial sector.

We specialise in advising on the following areas in e-commerce law:

  • Drafting of standard contracts and general terms and conditions (e.g. onboarding conditions, terms of use for platforms, product terms and conditions)
  • Draft privacy statements
  • Comprehensive consulting for the implementation or review of ordering processes
  • Comprehensive advice on the integration of payment methods in online shops and regulatory advice in connection with payment processing
  • Regulatory advice in connection with the sale of regulated products
