La nueva Directiva (UE) 2019/770 sobre ciertos aspectos relativos a los contratos de suministros de contenidos y servicio digitales, recientemente aprobada, será aplicable a los contratos celebrados desde el 1 de enero de 2021. Regula por primera vez, como contrato típico por primera vez en la UE, el contrato de suministro digital a consumidores. La Directiva, no estará exenta de dificultades para delimitar su ámbito de aplicación frente a la Directiva (UE) 2019/771, sobre ciertos aspectos relativos a los contratos de compraventa de bienes, ni tampoco para precisar algunos de sus excesivamente abiertos conceptos y disposiciones. Nuevamente, hubiese sido preferible un enfoque más ambicioso por parte del legislador de la Unión, que sin embargo ha abordado alguna novedad significativa, como el contrato de suministro a cambio del uso de datos personales del consumidor
The new Directive (EU) 2019/770 on certain aspects concerning contracts for the supply of digital content and digital services recently passed, will be applicable to the supply of digital content or digital services from 1st January 2021. This new piece of legislation regulates autonomously as a contract in itself, for the first time in the EU, the supply of digital content and digital services to consumers. The Directive presents foreseeable difficulties in terms of definition of its scope regarding the jointly adopted Directive (EU) 2019/771, on certain aspects concerning contracts for the sale of goods, but also due to the wording of some of its definitions and concepts. It would has been preferable a deeper approach to the subject by the EC legislator, who nevertheless has included original modalities as the supply of digital contend or services to consumers who don´t pay or undertake to pay a price, but allow their personal data being processed by the trader.
