Frequently Asked Questions

Which authority must an e-commerce platform register/notify?

You must notify/register with the E-Commerce Department (Ministry of Industry and Trade) and display the verification code on your website/app.

What must a user data protection policy include?

Clearly state the purpose of collection, scope of use, retention period, rights to access/delete data, and security commitments.

Does an electronic contract have the same legal value as a paper contract?

Yes, if it meets conditions for authentication, storage, retrievability, and compliance with the Law on Electronic Transactions.

How are order disputes on a platform handled?

Lawyers advise on complaint intake procedures, response deadlines, and dispute resolution rules to limit platform liability.
