A video-sharing-platform provider, defined as a person who operates a video-sharing platform service, must take appropriate measures to protect minors from broadcasts, user-generated videos, and audiovisual commercial communication that could impair their physical, mental, or moral development.
It must also take appropriate measures to protect the general public from content whose dissemination is itself a criminal offense, including incitement to a terrorist act and child-pornography offenses under the Strafgesetzbuch. Disputes between users and a video-sharing-platform provider over compliance are mediated by Liechtenstein's regulatory authority (Art. 82d).
The Act's own enumerated list of administrative fines (Art. 93) does not separately name a breach of Art. 82c's protection duties themselves. The Act entered into force together with EEA Joint Committee Decision No. 337/2022 of 9 December 2022, without a further fixed commencement day stated in the consolidated text; it transposes Article 28b of Directive 2010/13/EU.
Who enforces it
Enforcement body
Regulierungsbehörde (Regulatory Authority), which mediates disputes over Art. 82c compliance between users and video-sharing-platform providers under Art. 82d.
