Artikel 54 Entschädigung


Summary What does Article 54 of the DSA regulation say?

This is a notably brief article that establishes the right of recipients of intermediary services to seek compensation when a provider has breached its obligations under the DSA.

It functions as an enforcement-facing provision that complements the broader supervision and complaint mechanisms set out in surrounding articles, giving individual recipients a direct civil remedy rather than relying solely on regulatory action.

Important points:

  • As a recipient of an intermediary service, you have the right to seek compensation for any damage or loss caused by a provider's breach of its obligations under this Regulation.
  • This right is exercised in accordance with both Union and national law, meaning the specific procedures and conditions may vary by Member State.
  • The compensation right is tied strictly to infringements of obligations under this Regulation — no broader or unrelated claims are covered by this provision.

Springlex's summary of the article is a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

Nutzer haben das Recht, im Einklang mit dem EU-Recht und nationalen Recht Schadenersatz von Anbietern von Vermittlungsdiensten für etwaige Schäden oder Verluste zu fordern, die aufgrund eines Verstoßes dieser Anbieter gegen die Verpflichtungen gemäß dieser Verordnung entstanden sind.
