Updated on
Writer — Certyneo · About Certyneo
In 2026, legal compliance for an e-commerce site goes beyond a simple legal notices page in the footer. Between LCEN, GDPR, the Digital Services Act (DSA) fully applicable since February 2024, and the Omnibus regulation transposed into French law, obligations have multiplied. A lack of legal notices exposes e-commerce merchants to penalties up to €75,000 for individuals and €375,000 for legal entities under article 6-VI-2 of LCEN. Here is the comprehensive updated checklist to secure your online store.
