Signatories of the 2022 Strengthened Code of Practice on Disinformation

The 2022 Strengthened Code of Practice is signed by a broad range of actors, such as online platforms, players from the advertising ecosystem, fact-checkers, civil society, research, and other organisations, joining to fight disinformation by subscribing to commitments and measures relevant to their mission.

The 2022 Code of Practice is the result of the work carried out by the signatories. It is for the signatories to decide which commitments they sign up to and it is their responsibility to ensure the effectiveness of their commitments’ implementation. The Code is not endorsed by the Commission, while the Commission set out its expectations in the Guidance and considers that, as a whole, the Code fulfils these expectations.

On 13 February 2025, the Commission and the European Board for Digital Services endorsed the integration of the 2022 Code of Practice on Disinformation as a Code of Conduct on Disinformation into the framework of the Digital Services Act (DSA).

The Signatories

Participation to the Strengthened Code of Practice has significantly broadened since 2018, with the possibility to welcome additional new signatories.

Each signatory signs the Code by filling in a subscription document subscribing to the commitments and measures relevant for its services.You can consult the individual subscription documents on the Code’s Transparency Centre.
