if the consumer has ordered multiple products in one order: the day the consumer or a third party designated by him, has received the last product. The entrepreneur may, provided he has clearly informed the consumer prior to the ordering process, refuse an order for multiple products with a different delivery time.

if the delivery of a product consists of several shipments or parts: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the last shipment or the last part;

in case of contracts for regular delivery of products during a certain period: the day on which the consumer, or a third party designated by him, has received the first product.

For services and digital content not delivered on a tangible medium:

The consumer can terminate a service contract and a contract for delivery of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium for at least 14 days without giving any reason. The entrepreneur may ask the consumer about the reason for withdrawal, but may not oblige the consumer to give his reason(s).

Extended cooling-off period for products, services and digital content not supplied on a tangible medium in case of failure to inform about right of withdrawal:

If the entrepreneur has not provided the consumer with the legally required information about the right of withdrawal or the model form for withdrawal, the cooling-off period will expire twelve months after the end of the original cooling-off period determined in accordance with the previous paragraphs of this article.

If the entrepreneur provided the information referred to in the previous paragraph to the consumer within twelve months after the start date of the original reflection period, the reflection period expires 14 days after the day the consumer received that information.


Article 7 - Obligations of the consumer during the reflection period

During the cooling-off period the consumer will handle the product and its packaging with care. He will only unpack or use the product to the extent necessary to determine the nature, characteristics and functioning of the product. The starting point here is that the consumer may only handle and inspect the product as he would be allowed to do in a store.

The consumer is only liable for depreciation in the value of the product resulting from a manner of handling the product that goes beyond what is permitted in paragraph 1.

The consumer is not liable for any reduction in the value of the product if the entrepreneur did not provide him with all the legally required information about the right of withdrawal before or at the time of concluding the contract.

Insufficiently stamped return shipments will not be accepted and therefore not credited.

If the consumer withdraws after first expressly requesting that the performance of the service or the supply of gas, water or electricity not made ready for sale in a limited volume or certain quantity shall commence during the withdrawal period, the consumer shall owe the entrepreneur an amount proportionate to that part of the commitment fulfilled by the entrepreneur at the time of withdrawal, compared to the full performance of the commitment.

The consumer shall not bear any costs for the performance of services or the supply of water, gas or electricity, not made ready for sale in a limited volume or quantity, or to supply district heating, if:
