Recital 11
(11) This regulation stipulates that certain online services provided by broadcasters are subject only to the law of the Member State in which the broadcaster is established. This provision is without prejudice to the rights enshrined in Directive 2001/29 /EC and the acquisition of rights under the principle of freedom of contract. Through the principle of contractual freedom it will be possible to continue limiting the exploitation of the rights affected by the principle of country of origin laid down in this Regulation, especially as far as certain technical means of transmission, such as geo-blocking and geo-filtering, or certain language versions are concerned, provided that any such limitations of the exploitation of those rights are in compliance with Union law.
