AB - The type of information that should be provided by an enterpriser on the basis of duty of information
supply in e-commerce consumer protection act can be widely categorized to information about one’s identity
and information about terms of contract. Because the purpose of providing information differs at each
category of information, it should be different for the way to provide information. Enterpriser may not
necessarily furnish consumers with information about one’s identity directly, but it can be said to the extent
that consumers easily find information about one’s identity whenever they want to have it from the very
beginning of business contact and continuously throughout the commercial activities. On the contrary,
information about terms of contract should be provided to consumers directly, stipulation or indication that
merely makes them be able to find information is not enough. In relation to these provisions, it seems to me
that the korean legislature is not sufficient to the purpose of each information supply.
It could be said that the korean legislature bestow elasticity on an enterpriser to some degree because he
allows them to use the form of electronic data. But it should be noted that it is not proper to regulate
quantity and contents of information to be provided uniformly. Basically there is no problem when we assume
that the contract has been made through Internet, but when if enterpriser use mail order, such as broadcast,
mobile device, all the information can not possibly be included, if ever, consumers may not be protected
enough paradoxically. Therefore it should be noted that it is necessary for a more elastic fashion to provide
quantity and contents of information.
