In future, operators of online shops must provide a digital withdrawal function for most distance contracts concluded with consumers via websites or mobile applications. The consumer must be able to submit his or her notice of withdrawal by activating a clearly designated \u201cwithdrawal button\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The withdrawal function must remain continuously available on the website or mobile application throughout the entire withdrawal period and must be easily accessible to consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Online shops are required to label the withdrawal button with the wording \u201cConfirm withdrawal\u201d or another equally clear and unambiguous formulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The withdrawal button must be made available both to registered customers and to guest purchasers, that is to say, in principle, without requiring the consumer to log in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The implementation of the withdrawal button entails adjusted information obligations, including the provision of an updated notice of the right of withdrawal. A legally compliant implementation may present affected online shops with certain technical challenges. Operators should therefore commence implementation without delay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
