Right of Withdrawal for a contract concerning the supply of digital content not supplied on a tangible medium
Right of Withdrawal
A consumer is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction for purposes that are predominantly neither commercial nor self-employed.
Right of Withdrawal
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within fourteen days without giving any reason. The withdrawal period is fourteen days from the day the contract is concluded. To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us ([Insert: Name/Company, address, telephone number, and email address. You can also use the shortcode for this and store the address in the settings.]) by means of a clear statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or an email) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You may use the attached sample withdrawal form, but this is not mandatory. To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Consequences of Withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (with the exception of the supplementary costs resulting from your choice of a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us), without undue delay and in any event not later than fourteen days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in no event will you incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

Exclusion or premature expiry of the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts for the supply of digital content that is not pre-fabricated and for the production of which an individual selection or determination by the consumer is decisive or which is clearly tailored to the personal needs of the consumer.
The right of withdrawal expires prematurely if we have only begun with the performance of the contract after you have a) given your express consent to this and at the same time confirmed your knowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal with the beginning of the performance of the contract on our part, and b) we have provided you with the content of your declaration on a durable medium within a reasonable period after the conclusion of the contract, but at the latest upon delivery of the goods or before the performance of the service begins. We point out that we can make the conclusion of the contract dependent on the aforementioned consent and confirmation.
