Abstract
This article discusses the legal position of information services, as well as the rights and obligations of their members in the field of security of mass sports events. Designated by the organizers of mass events, information services play an important role in ensuring the safety of participants. Pursuant to the currently binding Act on the Safety of Mass Events of 2009, legislators have granted information services many powers of a preventive nature. This allows them to effectively prevent the possibility of a threat during a mass event. Such actions are also aimed at minimizing possible negative consequences in the event that the danger does occur.
