What is the relationship between Ņem droši! and the EU portal agorateka?

Ņem droši! is a national portal containing lists of websites that offer digital content legally. It is linked to a portal at European level, called agorateka, which encompasses national portals from a variety of participating European countries, most notably the Member States of the European Union.

Ņem droši! is a national portal, that is hosted by the Patent Office of the Republic of Latvia. The portal was created to provide a trustable, simple and fast access to legal content available for consumers in Latvia.
