Legal Update #4: Impact of the future Omnibus Directive on (online) retailers

ECOMMERCE LEGAL UPDATES in cooperation with the Austrian Retail Association (Handelsverband): In the current LEGAL UPDATE #4 Mag. Jacqueline Bichler and Veronika Krickl focus on the new "Omnibus Directive", which modifies some previous directives. The new regulations must be transposed by 28 November 2021 and will be applicable from 28 May 2022. Among other things, the new directive provides some relief for entrepreneurs but also more transparency for consumers in online marketplaces (information on the ranking of offers, personalization of prices, information on price reductions, etc.).
