On 18 March 2023, Legislative Decree 26/2023, implementing Directive 2019/2161 "for better
enforcement and modernisation of the Union's consumer
protection rules" (known as the "Omnibus
Directive"), was published in the Official Journal. This Legislative Decree
amends certain provisions of Legislative Decree No. 206/2005 ("Consumer
Code"). Among other things, it is worth noting that the
Legislative Degree deals with online services which, though
perceived as free, are only provided to consumers if they provide
their personal data. The new rules apply as of 2 April 2023, with
the exception of Article 1.2 establishing the criteria to correctly
announce price reductions, which will apply as of 1 July 2023.
