Article 19 – Distance Buying Act
The Distance Buying Act has been in force since February 1, 2001. Entrepreneurs who sell products or services via the Internet have to deal with this new and often unknown law. The Distance Buying Act gives consumers a stronger legal position when it comes to purchasing via the internet, for example. For example, consumers may return purchased products within 7 days and request their money back. This does not apply to, among other things, perishable goods, newspapers, magazines, goods of which the nature of the article means that it cannot be exchanged and computer software (of which the seal has been broken). Companies must inform consumers about the product and its price. The method of payment and delivery must also be known.
What is a distance contract? A distance contract as defined by law is a purchase where the consumer and the seller have not seen each other during the purchase. A distance contract exists, for example, if one orders something via the internet or from a mail order company. The consumer cannot see the product before purchasing and, if it concerns a service, it is difficult to ascertain the nature of the service. The supplier or service provider may be located in a different place of residence than the consumer, but also in another country.
The law “Consumer Protection in Distance Contracts” (bill 26 861) is the implementation of the European Directive 97/7/EC. All countries of the European Union must transpose this directive into national law. By introducing the directive, the European Union wants to stimulate the development of the European market. The law includes obligations for the supplier to provide the consumer with timely and sufficient information in the case of distance contracts. The consumer has a reflection period and the right to terminate the agreement within the reflection period. The law offers consumers better protection against demanding payment for items not ordered and provides more protection against aggressive sales techniques. The law also contains a provision against fraudulent use of consumers' payment cards.
Article 20 – Additional or deviating provisions
Additional or deviating provisions from these general terms and conditions may not be to the detriment of the consumer and must be recorded in writing or in such a way that they can be stored by the consumer in an accessible manner on a durable data carrier.
Article 24 - Complaints procedure
- The entrepreneur has a sufficiently publicized complaints procedure and handles the complaint in accordance with this complaints procedure.
- Complaints about the execution of the agreement must be submitted fully and clearly described to the entrepreneur within 7 days after the consumer has discovered the defects.
- Complaints submitted to the entrepreneur will be answered within a period of 14 days from the date of receipt. If a complaint requires a foreseeably longer processing time, the entrepreneur will respond within 14 days with an acknowledgment of receipt and an indication of when the consumer can expect a more detailed answer.
- If the complaint cannot be resolved by mutual agreement, a dispute arises that is subject to the dispute settlement procedure.
- A complaint does not suspend the obligations of the entrepreneur, unless the entrepreneur indicates otherwise in writing. If a complaint is found to be justified by the entrepreneur, the entrepreneur will, at his option, replace or repair the delivered products free of charge
