Article 26
Advertising on online_platforms
1. Providers of online_platforms that present advertisements on their online_interfaces shall ensure that, for each specific advertisement presented to each individual recipient, the recipients of the service are able to identify, in a clear, concise and unambiguous manner and in real time, the following:
| (a) | that the information is an advertisement, including through prominent markings, which might follow standards pursuant to Article 44; |
| (b) | the natural or legal person on whose behalf the advertisement is presented; |
| (c) | the natural or legal person who paid for the advertisement if that person is different from the natural or legal person referred to in point (b); |
| (d) | meaningful information directly and easily accessible from the advertisement about the main parameters used to determine the recipient to whom the advertisement is presented and, where applicable, about how to change those parameters. |
2. Providers of online_platforms shall provide recipients of the service with a functionality to declare whether the content they provide is or contains commercial_communications.
When the recipient_of_the_service submits a declaration pursuant to this paragraph, the provider of online_platforms shall ensure that other recipients of the service can identify in a clear and unambiguous manner and in real time, including through prominent markings, which might follow standards pursuant to Article 44, that the content provided by the recipient_of_the_service is or contains commercial_communications, as described in that declaration.
3. Providers of online_platforms shall not present advertisements to recipients of the service based on profiling as defined in Article 4, point (4), of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 using special categories of personal data referred to in Article 9(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679.
Article 39
Additional online advertising transparency
1. Providers of very large online_platforms or of very large online_search_engines that present advertisements on their online_interfaces shall compile and make publicly available in a specific section of their online_interface, through a searchable and reliable tool that allows multicriteria queries and through application programming interfaces, a repository containing the information referred to in paragraph 2, for the entire period during which they present an advertisement and until one year after the advertisement was presented for the last time on their online_interfaces. They shall ensure that the repository does not contain any personal data of the recipients of the service to whom the advertisement was or could have been presented, and shall make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information is accurate and complete.
2. The repository shall include at least all of the following information:
| (a) | the content of the advertisement, including the name of the product, service or brand and the subject matter of the advertisement; |
| (b) | the natural or legal person on whose behalf the advertisement is presented; |
| (c) | the natural or legal person who paid for the advertisement, if that person is different from the person referred to in point (b); |
| (d) | the period during which the advertisement was presented; |
| (e) | whether the advertisement was intended to be presented specifically to one or more particular groups of recipients of the service and if so, the main parameters used for that purpose including where applicable the main parameters used to exclude one or more of such particular groups; |
| (f) | the commercial_communications published on the very large online_platforms and identified pursuant to Article 26(2); |
| (g) | the total number of recipients of the service reached and, where applicable, aggregate numbers broken down by Member State for the group or groups of recipients that the advertisement specifically targeted. |
3. As regards paragraph 2, points (a), (b) and (c), where a provider of very large online_platform or of very large online_search_engine has removed or disabled access to a specific advertisement based on alleged illegality or incompatibility with its terms_and_conditions, the repository shall not include the information referred to in those points. In such case, the repository shall include, for the specific advertisement concerned, the information referred to in Article 17(3), points (a) to (e), or Article 9(2), point (a)(i), as applicable.
The Commission may, after consultation of the Board, the relevant vetted researchers referred to in Article 40 and the public, issue guidelines on the structure, organisation and functionalities of the repositories referred to in this Article.

| (b) | templates, design and process standards for communicating with the recipients of the service in a user-friendly manner on restrictions resulting from terms_and_conditions and changes thereto; |
| (c) | electronic submission of notices by trusted flaggers under Article 22, including through application programming interfaces; |
