Law applicable to the protection of the rights of personality rights is regulated by a method of alternative indication with two equivalent connecting factors. The interpretation of these criteria – the place of the infringement of personal rights and the place where the damage occurred – may cause difficulties. The interpretation given by the European Court of Justice in the cases of Shevill and eDate Martinez seems to be the first to be taken into account, although exceptions should be admitted in justified cases. If the effects of infringement of the rights of personality occur in the territory of many states, it is to be assumed that the damage existing in each of them is governed by its legal system. However, this mosaic principle should only be applied where the person requesting the protection indicates the applicable law of the place of effect. If the law of the place of the infringement of personal rights is indicated, the norms of one legal system should be applied.
