EU Digital Services Act (DSA)

In order to comply with the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), Adobe must collect additional information from developers who wish to make their listings available in the EU. We will use this information to verify your identity and publish it on your publisher profile and listing detail pages. If you do not provide the required information by February 16, 2025, your listing(s) will be removed from the Adobe add-on/plugin marketplaces in the EU in accordance with the DSA.

If you do not wish to make your listing(s) available in the EU, you can choose to opt out.

Background on the DSA

Articles 30 and 31 of the DSA require Adobe to obtain and publish contact information for all “traders” on our marketplaces who make listings available to EU users. Specifically, Adobe must collect information to help us verify your business, including an email address, phone number, and mailing address for each trader who offers listings in the EU, and publish that information on the trader’s publisher profile and listing detail pages. We will only use the information you provide for the purposes set out in the DSA, i.e., validating your identity and making that information available to EU users navigating your Publisher Profile and listing detail pages.

Required Information

If you wish to make your listing(s) available in the EU, you must provide the DSA compliance information listed below no later than February 16, 2025:

• Email address associated with your business
• Phone number associated with your business
• Mailing address associated with your business
• Self-certification: During submission, you will be asked to certify that your listing complies with all applicable EU laws and regulations.
• Adobe will enable all developers to provide a D-U-N-S® number to verify your business.

D-U-N-S is an established business identification system widely used by app stores and online marketplaces to verify trader information. It is available to any business, and obtaining a D-U-N-S number is a no-cost option. You can obtain a D-U-N-S number by visiting https://www.dnb.com/duns/get-a-duns.html.

When Do I Need to Submit This Information?

• Beginning January 13, 2025, all developers, including those with existing listings and those making new listings available, must provide the required compliance information.
• Developers can add their details either on the public profile in the Developer Distribution Console (for plugins) or the publisher profile in Express (for add-ons).
• Beginning February 17, 2025, existing listings whose developers have not provided the required compliance information will be removed from Adobe Express Add-on Marketplace/Plugin Marketplace in Exchange and Creative Cloud Desktop in the EU.

How to Submit DSA Compliance Information?

• If you choose to make your listing(s) available in the EU, please select “yes” and provide the required compliance information.
• If you do not wish to make your listing(s) available in the EU, please select “no.” No further information will be required.
