"We got a CNIL letter and had 14 days. We had a rep appointed, notice endpoint live, and a Statement of Reasons filed on day 6. They handled the mechanics entirely."

If EU users can post, list, buy, or sell on your product — the DSA applies. We provide the named EU legal representative, a hosted Art. 16 notice endpoint, Statement-of-Reasons filings, and your annual Article 15/24 transparency report. One engagement, three artifacts, no platform-law research required.
Not every platform has VLOP obligations. But every non-EU platform needs a named representative. Toggle what's true for you — we'll tell you which tier fits.
Every non-EU service with any of these traits needs an Art. 13 representative. The tier determines what else you owe: notice endpoint, internal complaints, trader KYC, transparency reporting, or the full VLOP slate.
Of global annual turnover under DSA Art. 74 — roughly 1.5× GDPR's ceiling. Applicable for non-appointment, late transparency, and more.
For platforms and intermediaries. Enforcement by national DSCs ramped through 2024–25 — DSC letters now ship within days of EU launch signals.
Commission-level investigations opened against VLOPs in the first 18 months — covering systemic risk, ads transparency, and child safety.
Typical deadline for platform to prove Art. 13 appointment, notice endpoint, and ToS Art. 14 disclosures after an inbound inquiry.
A named EU entity as your official point of contact for the European Commission, national DSCs, and member-state authorities.
Hosted Art. 16 notice-and-action channel with structured intake, trusted-flagger authentication, and statutory SLA tracking.
Drafted, sent to the notifier, and submitted to the EC's public Statement-of-Reasons database. Deadlines observed automatically.
Complaint-handling system hosted on your domain with fair-process workflows and a full audit trail regulators can inspect.
For marketplaces — collect, verify, and store trader information, plus public trader identification. Compliance by design.
Art. 15 (all services) and Art. 24 (platforms) reports drafted and published on schedule, pre-approved by your legal team.
Every notice lands in a structured inbox. We validate the submitter, classify the category, and start the statutory clock. Your team decides — we handle every acknowledgement, statement of reasons, and outbound notification.
Hosted at notices.yourdomain.com. Structured intake forces notifier identity, URL, category, and explanation. Trusted flaggers are pre-authenticated and jump the queue. Every action is logged for your transparency report — no separate tooling required.
Biannual for platforms, annual for intermediaries. We log every notice, action, and appeal in real time, so the report writes itself — you sign, we publish.
Classified by category, origin, and notifier type. Pre-formatted for the EC's reporting template.
Removed, demoted, restricted, or referred — each with a documented statement of reasons.
Through the internal complaint system and certified out-of-court bodies. Resolutions tracked.
Ready for your sign-off four weeks before the February / August publication deadline.
30-minute call. We classify you (intermediary / platform / VLOP), confirm EU-MAU estimate, and map which Articles apply to your service.
We file your Art. 13 appointment, register with the Digital Services Coordinator in your chosen member state, and publish the contact.
Notice-and-action form live at notices.yourdomain.com. Internal complaints system embedded. Art. 14 ToS clauses delivered.
We start logging from day one. Your first transparency report is ready before the next publication window (12 months default, 6 for platforms).

From Series B marketplaces to UGC social apps to global review platforms — Article 13 appointment + notice endpoint live in under a week.
"We got a CNIL letter and had 14 days. We had a rep appointed, notice endpoint live, and a Statement of Reasons filed on day 6. They handled the mechanics entirely."
"Our trust & safety team used to write SoRs by hand. Now they approve the draft and click send. Real hours back."
"The transparency report was the scariest deliverable on my roadmap. EU Presence had the numbers, we had the pen."
"We were designated a VLOP with six weeks' notice. They'd been logging notices for 11 months, so our first audit went smoothly."
For services that host or transmit content but don't disseminate it publicly — CDN, cloud hosting, pure backends, internal tools.
For platforms where users post content or traders sell goods and services. All Tier 1 obligations plus Section 4 of the DSA.
For designated very-large platforms and search engines. Systemic-risk regime, independent audits, supervisory fees.
The standard stack for US platforms serving EU users. DSA, GDPR, and a hosted trust hub — one onboarding, one invoice, one team.
Art. 13 legal rep, Art. 16 notice endpoint, transparency reporting.
Article 27 coverage, 27 member states, named EU entity on record.
Hosted trust hub, DSR inbox, policies, certifications.
If your service stores and disseminates user-generated content to the public, you're a hosting service at minimum — and a platform if that dissemination is a non-minor feature of the service. Marketplaces, forums, review sites, social apps, UGC video — all platforms. We classify you precisely on the discovery call.
Micro and small enterprises (under 50 staff and $11M turnover) are exempt from Section 4 obligations — internal complaints, trader KYC, the larger transparency disclosures — but not from Art. 13 legal representative, Art. 16 notices, or baseline transparency. You still need a rep.
Your obligations expand substantially: systemic risk assessment, independent audit, researcher access, crisis protocol, supervisory fee. We upgrade your engagement to the VLOP tier and coordinate with external auditors. Most of our VLOP-tier clients onboarded pre-designation.
The Commission has opened formal proceedings against multiple VLOPs and fines are escalating. For smaller platforms, national Digital Services Coordinators handle enforcement — first letters are showing up with 14-day response windows and "proof of rep appointment" requirements.
Legally, yes — they're different mandates. Operationally, no — we can run both under one engagement. Same contact point, same inbox routing, unified archive for both GDPR Art. 27 and DSA Art. 13 correspondence.
Yes. DSA representative appointments are terminable with reasonable notice. We help with the handover, file the change with your lead DSC, and export every notice, SoR, and transparency log. 30-day termination, no punitive clauses.
30-minute discovery call. Legal rep appointed, notice endpoint live, and the transparency clock started — by end of week.
