Data Privacy Compliance in China – A Time to Act

R&P China Lawyers. September 2023

The PRC Advertising Law (《广告法》) and the Administration Regulations on Internet Advertising (《互联网广告管理办法》) expressly require all advertisements to be “identifiable” (i.e. capable of being identified as such). The newly effective Enforcement Guidelines provide actionable guidance for determining whether an online advertisement meets this requirement. Specifically, advertisements published through (i) the platforms of goods operators and service providers, or (ii) their own accounts on social platforms are more likely to meet the requirement of being “identifiable” as online advertisements. Promotions using “ad rank” marketing, appearing alongside other online information, or through knowledge / experience sharing (with linked purchase methods), and not expressly labelled as “advertisements”, risk contravening this requirement of the advertising laws in China.
