Just a few years ago, online store owners primarily had to ensure terms and conditions, privacy policies, and efficient order processing. Today, this is clearly not enough. EU regulations such as the Omnibus Directive and the Digital Services Act (DSA), as well as the increasing role of artificial intelligence in assessing store credibility, force businesses to consider their platforms much more broadly. It is no longer just about regulatory compliance, but also about building digital trust, which influences a store’s visibility, legal security, and customer purchasing decisions. Below, we present a practical checklist of the most important actions to implement to reduce the risk of sanctions and increase the credibility of an online store.

The contemporary economic and social reality is undergoing an irreversible process of digitalization. Business activity, commercial communication, and marketing have largely shifted to the internet, e-commerce platforms, and social media. As a consequence, key legal events, infringements of entrepreneurs’ personal rights, acts of unfair competition, and unlawful actions affecting the goodwill and reputation of companies now leave traces almost exclusively in the digital sphere. Consequently, the traditional perception of evidence through the prism of paper documents bearing handwritten signatures has become insufficient in the realities of business transactions. Polish civil procedure meets these needs through the fundamental assumption of an open catalog of evidence. However, the dynamic development of technology forces the constant evolution of judicial practice and a full openness to next-generation evidence. In addition to traditional text files, today’s multifaceted economic processes require the management of complex data structures, such as metadata, advanced web analytics, system logs, and screenshots from social media platforms.

The most significant changes that influence litigations in Poland will come into force on March 1, 2026. The amendments to the Code of Civil Procedure concern, among other things, powers of attorney, mediation, the computerization of civil proceedings (this element predominates in the amending act), and new rules for service of documents. Many changes concern the use of an information portal in the proceedings, which is also the subject of an amendment to the Act on the System of Common Courts.
The amendment aims to be one of the first steps towards computerizing the entire justice system to meet the needs of the information society. Furthermore, the justification also includes intentions to standardize the use of IT systems across courts, eliminating differences, for example, between different divisions of common courts. For the time being, after all the changes contained in the amending act enter into force, documents filed via the Information Portal will still need to be printed for inclusion in the case file due to the lack of digital records in civil proceedings. However, this is only a temporary solution, as work on digital records is already underway. The legislative authority also emphasizes the importance of gradual implementation and development, so that judges and citizens have an appropriate transitional period to become familiar with these systems.
