KIEŁTYKA GŁADKOWSKI’s participation in this professional webinar dedicated to the cross-border needs of foreign entities, is associated with the future needs and support of clients operating in Portugal, and – in particular in the field of tax optimization – in jurisdictions historically associated with Portugal, including Brazil, Luanda (Angola) and Maputo (Mozambique).
In May 2019, the European Union issued two directives, namely the one on the contractual aspects of the supply of digital content and digital services (“Directive on digital content“, EU 2019/770) and on the contractual aspects of the sale of goods (“Directive on the sale of goods“), EU 2019/771).
The main objective of both Directives is to contribute to the proper functioning of the internal market and ensure a high level of consumer protection, in particular by establishing rules common to all Member States on contracts for the supply of digital content or digital services concluded between traders and consumers. This is especially about introducing into Polish law provisions on the compliance of digital content or digital service with the contract, in the event of non-compliance of the digital content or digital service with the contract.
