6. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL – DIGITAL CONTENT
- A Consumer who enters into a distance contract generally has a statutory 14-day right of withdrawal, unless a statutory exception applies.
- Online courses and other digital content supplied electronically, without a physical medium, may fall under the statutory exception where the Consumer:

- Such charges are outside the Seller’s control and depend on the laws of the destination country.
9. CUSTOM-MADE PRODUCTS
- If the Seller offers products made according to the Customer’s individual specifications or clearly personalised to the Customer’s needs, the statutory right of withdrawal may not apply where the applicable legal requirements for this exception are met.
