• Obtain the press publisher's permission before reproducing copies of its press publication and communicating it to the public for a commercial purpose in a way that lets members of the public access it from a place and at a time individually chosen by them (Sec. 50).
• You need no permission for an individual user's private or non-commercial use of the press publication, a hyperlink, or an individual word or a very short extract of it.
• A press publication is a collection composed mainly of journalistic literary works (not scientific or academic), issued periodically or updated regularly under one title, that aims to inform the public and is disseminated by any medium at the publisher's initiative, editorial responsibility and control.
• The right lasts until two years have passed from the end of the year the press publication was published, and does not apply to a press publication first published before 6 June 2019.

• If you develop, make or produce software, including software supplied through a cloud or as a service, you answer as its manufacturer; free and open-source software developed or supplied outside commercial activity is outside the Act (Secs. 1 a and 2 point 5).
• Keep supplying the software updates and upgrades needed to keep the product safe while it is under your control: a lack of safety caused by software, an update or upgrade, a related service, a missing necessary update or a substantial modification is not excused because it arose after you put the product on the market (Sec. 7).
• Meet the mandatory product-safety requirements that apply to your product, because a product that fails them is presumed to lack safety (Sec. 4 b).
• Be ready to produce the evidence a court orders disclosed and to present it, on a party's request, in an easily accessible and understandable form, because failing to comply with a disclosure order presumes the product defective (Secs. 4 b and 13 b).
• If you are established outside the European Union, your importer, your authorized representative or, if there is neither, your fulfilment service provider answers beside you (Sec. 5).
• If you distribute a product or run an online platform that lets consumers conclude distance contracts, you answer when no liable operator can be identified or established in the Union, unless you name one within a month of the request (Sec. 6).
• Be ready to show that the objective state of scientific and technical knowledge when you placed the product on the market, or while it was under your control, did not allow the lack of safety to be detected (Sec. 7).
• Count the destruction or corruption of data used exclusively for personal purposes as compensable economic loss, with no lower limit for property damage (Sec. 8).
• A claim must be brought within three years of the injured person learning, or having reason to learn, of the damage, the lack of safety and the liable person, and within ten years of the product being placed on the market or put into use, or 25 years for latent personal injury (Sec. 9).
