E-commerce and Contracts: Navigating the Digital Economy
In the era when the Internet has created the global marketplace, e-commerce has become a crucial factor for business development. While e-commerce offers unprecedented opportunities, it also brings legal complexity. In this context, we explore the relationship between e-commerce and contracts, and the challenges and opportunities presented by this dynamic environment.
The E-commerce Revolution
E-commerce has allowed companies to operate globally, regardless of their physical location. It opens the door to new customers, markets and business opportunities. The ability to buy and sell with just a few clicks has transformed economic landscapes.
Legal Challenges
- Legislation for Transactions: E-commerce involves transactions between consumers and businesses, which entails specific legal requirements. Distance contracts must comply with applicable laws to protect consumers.
- Website and Webshop Requirements: Online businesses must comply with specific website disclosure requirements to ensure transparency. This includes information on pricing, payments, contact information and return policy.
- Legal Authenticity: The virtual world brings new challenges, such as electronic signatures and the rise of e-money and cryptocurrencies. These require legal recognition and regulation.
