Von Omnilex extrahiert
The Bonn District Court convicted the affected person of negligent breach of supervisory duties for the period from 23 February 2011 to 29 February 2012. It imposed a fine of EUR 5,000 and ordered her to bear the procedural costs and her necessary expenses. The court stated that consent to advertising calls is valid only when the consent declaration is addressed to the actual principal—the company being advertised. The judgment cites §§ 30 and 130 OWiG and § 7(1) and (2), no. 2 UWG.
§ 7(1), (2), no. 2 UWG; effectiveness of consent to advertising calls. Consent to telephone advertising is effective only if the declaration of consent identifies the actual principal of the advertising, namely the company whose products or services are promoted, as its recipient. A declaration addressed only to an intermediary or another entity does not establish consent in favour of the advertised company. The required attribution must be ascertainable from the consent declaration itself.
