Copyright law firm
The advertising law is closely linked to other legal acts such as the law on copyright and related rights, the law on personal data protection, the law on combating unfair competition, the law on sobriety promotion, the law on gambling, the law on food and nutrition, the law on pharmaceuticals or the criminal code.
We ensure that the advertising content created complies with the current EU, national and sector-specific legislation. We review the creations to confirm that they do not mislead consumers, violate fair competition rules or contain false information. We analyse and advise on whether graphics, images or music can be used under licence. In particular, we provide advice on on-line advertising as far as proper privacy policies, cookies, email marketing, collaboration with influencers and compliance of advertising with the internal regulations of social media platforms are concerned.
