EdTech Platform Compliance involves ensuring legal conformity for educational technologies. When creating or using an online learning platform, you process children's personal data, accept payments, and publish copyrighted materials. This creates risks regarding data protection, e-commerce, and intellectual property. Georgia has strict new laws on Personal Data Protection, setting specific requirements for processing minors' data. Legal.ge offers IT and education law lawyers who ensure your platform's full compliance to avoid fines and reputational damage.

A lawyer will develop a DMCA-style policy to protect the platform from user actions.
