This provision addresses how digital platform rules interact with existing regulations:
- **Inconsistency Nullifies Effect**: If any part of a digital platform's rules conflicts with the regulations, that conflicting part has no legal effect. Essentially, the regulations take precedence over any contradictory platform rules.
- **Concurrent Operation Assumed**: However, if the platform's rules can function alongside the regulations without conflict, they are considered consistent. The rules are assumed to be in harmony with the regulations to the extent that they can both operate together.
**Simplified Summary**: Any digital platform rules that clash with the regulations are invalid where they conflict. But if the platform's rules can work together with the regulations without issues, they are considered to be in agreement with the regulations.
