FONT ADVOCATS - Vendre per Internet (de forma legal)

Abril, 2012.- Les vendes per Internet de productes o serveis no deixen de créixer a pesar de la crisi econòmica

 

Tot i l’angoixant crisi econòmica que vivim, com en els famosos còmics d’Astèrix i Obèlix, hi ha un reducte de mercat que es vesteix de Gàlia i que sembla aliè al pessimisme i els números vermells. Em refereixo a Internet i al comerç electrònic.

 

Segons dades publicades per l’últim informe de la Comissió del Mercat de les Telecomunicacions, en el darrer trimestre de l’any 2011, el comerç electrònic a Espanya va arribar al seu rècord històric: es van facturar més de 2.400 milions d’euros, un 27,4% més respecte al mateix període de l’any anterior. Aquestes xifres converteixen el darrer trimestre en el 10è consecutiu quant a creixement, i és la primera vegada que les compres dins d’Espanya superen la despesa feta en botigues online estrangeres. Les dades són prou contundents.

 

Així, en un moment en què per a una empresa tenir pàgina web i/o presència en xarxes socials esdevé quelcom quasi imprescindible -perquè permet lluir múscul i marca-, és encara més important valorar si el negoci es pot projectar globalment a través de la xarxa. Des del punt de vista empresarial, el comerç electrònic només té avantatges, perquè, amb poca inversió, permet obtenir ingressos addicionals que poden significar molts guanys si se sap gestionar i promoure adequadament.

 

Ara bé, per vendre productes o serveis per Internet, cal tenir en compte una sèrie de necessitats jurídiques bàsiques que s’han de cobrir (per no córrer riscos), des d’una triple perspectiva:

 

1. A més de tenir ben regulat el contracte a subscriure amb l’usuari- comprador que adquireix el producte o servei, durant el procediment de contractació online, el titular de la webshop ha de garantir el compliment de certs requisits d’informació i assegurar l’exercici de determinats drets per part de l’usuari com, per exemple, el de desistir del contracte o el de retornar el producte en supòsits de disconformitat.

 

2. Les dades de l’usuari-comprador (com també del que no ho és) s’han protegir i tractar adequadament conforme a la normativa de protecció de dades personals i no només complint amb el deure d’informació a través de l’oportuna “Política de Privacitat”.

 

3. Tenint en compte que els drets d’autor que s’originen per la creació de qualsevol tipus d’obra o producte i els signes distintius (marques, noms comercials) i dissenys industrials que s’integren en una pàgina web estan del tot exposats a ser objecte d’un ús fraudulent per part d’un tercer és important vetllar per una adequada protecció jurídica dels mateixos.
