Online shop terms – common mistakes

A consumer who concluded a distance contract has, as a rule, 14 days to withdraw without giving a reason (Article 27 of the Consumer Rights Act). If the seller fails to inform the consumer of this right, the period may be extended by up to 12 months.

Template clauses that shape consumer rights contrary to good practice and grossly infringe their interests are not binding on the consumer (Article 385¹ § 1 of the Civil Code). Part of consumer protection also applies to sole traders.

Frequently asked questions

Is a template downloaded from the internet enough?

A ready-made template rarely matches the actual sales model. Errors in the terms may lead, among others, to an extended withdrawal period or proceedings before the President of the Office of Competition and Consumer Protection (UOKiK). We draft terms for the specific shop or service.

Do you prepare bilingual contracts?

Yes – Polish-English, Polish-Ukrainian and Polish-Russian. The contract states which language version prevails.

Which law applies to a contract with a foreign company?

In contracts between businesses the parties may, as a rule, choose the governing law (Rome I Regulation) and the competent court. We advise on the clauses to use.

How much does a contract or terms cost?

The cost depends on the type and complexity of the document. We present an offer before starting work.

Legal basis: Civil Code of 23 April 1964; Consumer Rights Act of 30 May 2014; Act of 18 July 2002 on Providing Services by Electronic Means; Regulation (EC) No 593/2008 (Rome I). The information on this page is general and does not constitute legal advice in an individual case.
