Oct 16 (Reuters) – French media and digital regulator Arcom has opened an investigation into Mym, a France-based platform offering subscription-based content including adult material, over suspected breaches of the EU’s Digital Services Act (DSA).
Arcom said on Friday it had sent Mym a formal request for information on October 14, giving the platform 15 days to respond or face sanctions, after a preliminary review raised concerns about child protection and service transparency.
Mym did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
• Arcom suspects Mym may have breached the DSA in two areas: protecting minors, including age-verification measures, and transparency requirements, citing incomplete terms of use and insufficient information about its recommendation systems
• Arcom has overseen compliance with the DSA for platforms established in France since the SREN law came into force in May 2024
• The regulator said it would continue pressing online platforms to improve transparency and strengthen user protections, particularly for children
