Competition law
Regardless of whether you are planning an advertising measure or an entire business model: if there are doubts about the admissibility under fair trading law, competitors can take action against it on the basis of competition law. Competition law thus often determines the success or failure of business ideas and marketing concepts.
The importance of competition law extends far beyond the regulations of the Unfair Competition Act (UWG). Even a violation of norms that are not regulated in the UWG itself can in many cases be punished under competition law.
For this reason, e.g. the legal admissibility of a legal tech model, data protection requirements or special features of medicinal products law can be preliminary issues in competition law disputes.
