| 128. | The description of the main parameters determining ranking must be included in the terms and conditions of providers of online intermediation service (Article 5(1)). Pursuant to Article 3(2), when such providers intend to change their terms and conditions, they must notify their business users of the proposed changes at least 15 days before applying them. The only exception to the application of the notice period is where the provider of online intermediation services: (a) is subject to a legal or regulatory obligation which requires it to change its terms and conditions in a manner which does not allow it to respect the notice period; or (b) has exceptionally to change its terms and conditions to address an unforeseen and imminent danger related to defending the online intermediation services, consumers or business users from fraud, malware, spam, data breaches or other cybersecurity risks. In addition, the notice period does not apply to changes that are merely of an editorial nature (i.e. changes that do not alter the content or meaning of terms and conditions). The notion of ‘editorial changes’ necessarily excludes changes to ‘main parameters’, as they will alter the content or meaning of terms and conditions.
