https://doi.org/10.24412/2225-8264-2025-4-1041
Abstract
This article examines some issues related to extrajudicial and pre-trial copyright protection of images within the context of trade via electronic platforms (marketplaces). The subject of study is the established practice of protecting such rights through the functionality of marketplaces and its compliance with established legal norms. It is noted that the established forms of extrajudicial and pre-trial protection of images within e-commerce are quite adequate to the actual interactions between copyright holders and marketplaces and other participants in online trade, and the practical protection tools provided to them allow this to be carried out fast enough and in compliance with the requirements for mandatory pre-trial dispute resolution. However, some extrajudicial and pre-trial copyright protection mechanisms offered by marketplaces require adjustments (for example, in terms of complaint review timeframes or the procedure for submitting them) and further improvement.
