EU Digital Law

This new edition explains how contract and consumer law have been changed by EU legal acts with regard to legal practice in core areas of private law.

It includes the most recent, already directly applicable, EU law that will significantly influence the platform economy, such as private law-relevant provisions of the Digital Market Act (DMA), private law-relevant provisions of the Digital Services Act (DSA), and the Online Intermediation Services Regulation.

It goes on to comment on the European legal requirements for the German Civil Code on sales law, the sale of digital products and on electronic commerce (Sales of Goods Directive; Digital Content Directive; Consumer Rights Directive; E-Commerce Directive).

The contributors, experts from across the EU, provide detailed explanations of the background and purpose of the provisions in a uniform structure and provide concrete ways of applying them.
