Laws, courts and authorities
TMG
Abbreviation for Telemediengesetz
In short and in plain language
The TMG was a former German law for online services.
Among other things, it held the duty to have a legal notice.
A newer law on digital services has replaced it.
A legal notice that still refers to the old law is out of date. It should be updated.
Definition
The TMG was the former German Telemedia Act for online services and contained, among other things, the legal notice requirement. It has been replaced by the German Digital Services Act (DDG). A legal notice that still refers to the TMG is therefore outdated and should be updated.
