ON THE PARTIES TO PLATFORM-BASED CONSUMER CONTRACTS OF SALE, DIGITAL CONTENT AND DIGITAL SERVICES

Summary/Abstract: The article examines the concept of contractual party in the context of consumer law and platform-based contracts. The author studies the recently passed legislation on digital content and services contracts and sale of goods contracts. The case-law of the CJEU on the status of intermediaries in EU consumer law is also analyzed. Overall, the article arrives at the conclusion that the concept of contractual party is still fundamental to describe persons who will be bound with the contractual rights and obligations. Still in platform-based contracts, due to the influence which the platform exercises on conclusion and content of the contract, the platform may be under obligation even without being a party to that contract.
