Topic content:
If you are looking for ways to describe your goods or services to promote their offerings and attempt to attract the attention of customers, you need to be careful about their rights. Globally, the laws for protecting consumer interests are increasingly complex and stringent on what you can say or what you cannot say or what you should say about your goods or services.
The seminar will touch on the consumer protection provisions under the Trade Descriptions Ordinance in Hong Kong and discuss the following topics
- Main provisions of unfair trade practices under the Trade Descriptions Ordinance
- Case studies and the attitude of the court when imposing sanctions
- Q&As
