Impactful Policy Frameworks
Federal Law 'On Information, Information Technologies and Information Protection' (No. 149-FZ) - Amendments on Data Localization (2014, 2021)
This law mandates that Russian citizens' personal data must be stored and processed within Russia. Recent amendments have broadened the scope and increased enforcement.
Kinopoisk must ensure all user data is hosted on servers physically located in Russia, incurring potential infrastructure and compliance costs.
Federal Law 'On Advertising' (No. 38-FZ) - Amendments on Online Advertising Labelling (2022)
Requires all online advertising, including native advertising and influencer marketing, to be clearly marked as 'advertisement' and information about the advertiser to be provided to a unified register.
Kinopoisk, if it hosts or engages in advertising, must implement new labeling and reporting mechanisms, increasing operational complexity and compliance risk.
Federal Law 'On Protection of Children from Information Harmful to Their Health and Development' (No. 436-FZ) - Age Rating Requirements (2010, amended regularly)
This law establishes an age rating system for all information products, including films and TV series, and mandates the display of these ratings.
Kinopoisk must accurately apply and display age ratings for all content in its database, potentially requiring content review and categorization updates.
