§3.4.3 Information about non-applicability of EU consumer law

Article 6a(1)(c) aims at stimulating traders to declare their status correctly. It requires the provider of the online marketplace to warn consumers that they do not benefit from consumer rights where the third party supplier has declared its status as non-trader. Article 6a(1) (c) where the third party offering the goods, services or digital content is not a trader, that the consumer rights stemming from Union consumer protection law do not apply to the contract; Information that EU consumer rights do not apply to the contract must accompany, in a concise and as prominent manner as possible, the information that the third party supplier has declared its status as non-trader. The main purpose of this notification is to warn consumers that they cannot count on the legal protection that they would normally expect, such as right of withdrawal or legal guarantee, so that they would enter into the contract in full knowledge of these limitations.
