Unfair competition
Unfair competitive practices harm those who trade fairly and without deceit, diverting your consumers through illegitimate methods.
A competitor using unfair practices causes losses and customer leakage. Reporting unfair competition is the responsibility of the affected company.
What is unfair competition?
It is a commercial practice that involves the use of illegal methods to gain a commercial advantage. Examples include misuse of another's reputation, deceptive advertising, product counterfeiting, improper comparisons, and others.
How to report unfair competition?
Chilean legislation has a special law that outlines actions against unfair practices, allowing not only to stop the infringing act but also to request compensation for all the damages it has caused.
Unfair competitive practices are not supervised ex officio by the authorities. If you discover that a competitor is attracting customers using illegitimate means, it is your duty to report unfair competition.
