A set of five working files that organise the duties of Poland's Act of 18 July 2002 on the provision of services by electronic means into open questions a business answers from its own records.

Included from the Micro level.

Every toolkit in the level is included; nothing is bought one by one.

The businesses it reaches

The Act of 18 July 2002 on the provision of services by electronic means governs businesses that provide services online, run e-commerce shops, send commercial communications by electronic means, or operate platforms and intermediary services for other users. It also reaches entities that must file an application with the authority responsible for electronic services and submit reports on their activity. The toolkit organises the duties this instrument places on such businesses into five working files, each built around open questions the business answers from its own records.

The working files walk through the information duties owed to service recipients, the technical and organisational requirements for providing services, the obligation to file an application, the required content of that application together with its attachment, and the form in which the report is submitted. The statutory text is carried verbatim beside each duty, so the business reads the authority's words next to every question. Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, and the documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file.

Questions and answers

Which businesses fall under the Act of 18 July 2002 on the provision of services by electronic means?

The instrument reaches businesses that provide services by electronic means, including online sellers, platform operators, and entities sending commercial communications to recipients in Poland. It also covers businesses required to file an application with the authority responsible for electronic services and to submit reports on their activity. A business answers the toolkit's open questions from its own records to establish which duties apply to its operations.

What do the five working files cover?

The files address the information duties owed to service recipients, the technical and organisational requirements for providing services, the obligation to file an application, the required content of the application and its attachment, and the form for submitting the report. Each file groups the relevant duties into open questions a business answers from its own records. The statutory text sits beside each duty in the exact wording the authority published.

How does a business reach the toolkit's sections?

Sections are served through a connector inside Claude. The business opens the connector and works through the questions there, with the statutory text displayed beside each duty. No files are downloaded and no software is installed on the business's systems.

What documents does the business receive after answering the questions?

The documents that come back are dated compliance reports. The business keeps each report in its own file as a record of its answers and the duties covered. The report carries the date on which it was produced.

Does the toolkit tell a business what to do about a specific duty?

The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised. A business reads the statutory text beside each open question and answers from its own records. The resulting report reflects the business's own answers, not a recommendation from the toolkit.

What information duties does the instrument place on a service provider?

The instrument sets out information a service provider must give to service recipients, covering the provider's identity, the scope of the service, and the technical conditions of its provision. The first working file organises these duties into open questions. A business answers them from its own records, and the statutory wording of each duty is displayed alongside.

What technical and organisational requirements does the instrument set for providing services?

The instrument addresses the technical and organisational conditions a provider must meet when rendering services by electronic means, including matters relating to the security and operation of the service. The second working file turns these requirements into open questions. The business answers from its own records, with the statutory text carried beside each duty.

When must a business file an application with the authority responsible for electronic services?

The instrument sets out the obligation to file an application in defined circumstances, and the third working file organises that obligation into open questions. A business answers from its own records to establish whether the obligation applies to its activity. The statutory text of each provision is displayed beside the question.

What must the application contain, and what attachment is required?

The instrument prescribes the content the application must carry and the attachment that accompanies it. The fourth working file presents these requirements as open questions a business answers from its own records. The statutory wording of each requirement is carried beside the question.

In what form is the report submitted to the authority?

The instrument specifies the form in which the report is submitted. The fifth working file organises the relevant duties into open questions, and the business answers from its own records. The statutory text of each provision is displayed beside the question, and the resulting dated compliance report is kept in the business's own file.
