Ireland’s New Online Safety Act: What You Need to Know

Ireland: Online Safety and Media Regulation Act

The Republic of Ireland is a center of business and online technology. It is closely related to the UK and is a member of the European Union. The Online Safety and Media Regulation Act reflects these relationships and, similarly to the UKโ€™s Online Safety Bill, establishes new definitions of harmful content that go beyond the EUโ€™s DSA. The Act also creates a standard of โ€˜age-inappropriate online content.โ€™

These standards directly affect platforms operating in this tech hub, with new requirements and sanctions for non-compliance. Access our one-page summary here to learn how this law affects your platform.
