The legal framework for digital trust

Since the Internet increasingly governs our modes of action, determines our choices and trends, influences economies and business practices and changes the way we enter into contracts, there can be no question of leaving this formidable tool to the discretion of market forces and private players. For this reason, both national and international legislations, aware of the influence that the element of trust represents in the development of e-commerce, have tried to strengthen their legal arsenal through the promulgation of several laws relating to ICT and e-commerce in general, so that it is adequate with the evolution of digital technology as well as to develop the business climate.
