2001. évi CVIII. törvény (Ekertv.), 4/A. §, as inserted by 2013. évi CCXLV. törvény 29. § · Read the law's page

• Applies to service providers publishing information that could seriously harm a minor's intellectual, spiritual, moral or physical development, in particular where violence or the direct, naturalistic depiction of sexuality is a defining element; media content covered by the Press Freedom Act is excluded.
• Publish such content only together with a warning notice about the possible endangerment of minors, displayed before the content.
• Add identifiers in the page's source code that indicate the content's category and that filter software (as defined in the Electronic Communications Act) can recognise.

2010. évi CLXXXV. törvény (Mttv.), 9. § és 11. §, as recast by 2021. évi LXXIX. törvény 9. § and 2022. évi LXI. törvény 23., 27. § · Read the law's page

• Applies to media service providers; the on-demand duties bind on-demand audiovisual media services.
• Sort every programme you intend to publish into one of the age-rating categories the law defines before it is broadcast; exceptions include news, political information, sports and trailer programmes, and a programme viewable regardless of age goes into category I.
• Sort a programme whose defining element is violence, the promotion or portrayal of deviation from the self-identity corresponding to the sex assigned at birth, of gender reassignment or of homosexuality, or the direct, naturalistic or gratuitous portrayal of sexuality, into Category V, which a linear service may publish only between 22:00 and 05:00 (Sections 9(6) and 10(1)(d)).
• On-demand services: publish a programme only in the manner its age-rating category permits.
• Display the age-rating category prominently when a programme is presented in your catalogue or before the user views it. On-demand providers that the Media Council's recommendation treats as having low revenue or a small audience are exempt.

2025. évi XCII. törvény a magánjogi tárgyú törvények módosításáról · Read the law's page

• These rules are enacted but do not apply yet: they apply to products placed on the market or put into service after 9 December 2026, and sections 6:550 to 6:559 of the Civil Code now in force keep governing earlier products (Sec. 95(6) of Act XCII of 2025; Sec. 55/A of Act CLXXVII of 2013).
• If you develop, make or have made a product, software included, or present yourself as its manufacturer by your name, trade mark or other distinguishing sign, you answer for damage a defect in it causes (Secs. 6:550(1)(a), 6:552 and 6:554(2)(a)).
• Keep supplying the software updates and upgrades needed to keep the product safe while it is within your control: a defect that arises after you put the product into circulation because of software, an update or upgrade, or a missing update needed to maintain safety is not excused (Sec. 6:557(5)).
• Treat safety-relevant cybersecurity requirements and any recall as part of what decides whether your product is defective (Sec. 6:555(2)(f) and (g)).
• Allow for what the product learns or acquires after it is placed on the market, because the effect of that ability is weighed in deciding whether it is defective (Sec. 6:555(2)(c)).
• Keep evidence you could produce if a court orders you to make it available: failing to do so presumes the product defective (Sec. 6:556(1)(a)).
• If you are outside the EU, the importer, your authorized representative or, failing them, the fulfilment service provider answers for the product in your place (Sec. 6:550(1)(c)).
• If you distribute a product or run an online platform that lets consumers contract with traders, identify the liable business established in the EU, or your own supplier, within one month of the injured person's request, or you answer for the damage (Sec. 6:550(5) and (6)).
• If you substantially modify a product outside the manufacturer's control and then distribute it or put it into service, you answer as its manufacturer (Sec. 6:550(4)).
• If you build a software component into a product, you have no recourse against a micro or small enterprise that made the software where you waived recourse in the contract (Sec. 6:551).
• Do not rely on a contract term to limit or exclude liability to the injured person, because it is void (Sec. 6:559).
• Free and open-source software developed or made available in the course of a non-commercial activity is outside the chapter (Sec. 6:559/B(2)(b)).
