Imagine… 💭 Your company sells its products via its own webshop as well as through independent distributors, who in turn sell your products both online and in other ways.

Some distributors offer your products via online marketplaces, including Amazon and eBay, and advertise your products on search engines and price comparison websites, such as Google Shopping, PriceGrabber and Shoppingcom.

You would prefer to prohibit these online sales techniques because they do not conform to your company´s quality policy. But you know that the competition rules are strict when it comes to prohibiting or impeding internet sales. However, in a recent competition law compliance training you heard that new rules on internet sales had recently come into effect.

You want to know where things currently stand, so you seek advice from your legal department on the most important dos and don´ts for internet sales. In plain English: what is permitted these days and what isn´t?
