Abstract (english)
Undoubtedly, the channel of the law is changing in the digital age as legal information is available on websites, while disputes can be resolved by means of online forms. This digital turn is especially visible in the EU digital single market and business-to-consumer relationships (hereinafter: B2C relationships) in which information must be provided to consumers ‘in a clear and comprehensible manner’ in order to guarantee transparency (Mišćenić 2021 and Loos 2017). Only if consumers have been notified of the “essential” information of a given transaction, can they make an “informed choice” when entering a B2C relationship (e.g. Mišćenić 2018, 2021). As confirmed by the Court of Justice of the EU (hereinafter: CJEU), “information, before and at the time of concluding a contract, on the terms of the contract and the consequences of concluding it is of fundamental importance for a consumer” (Radlinger and Radlingerová, para. 64). Indeed, the latter information duty contributes to the realisation of transparency which in turn highlights the need to frame information in plain, clear and comprehensible language. However, if the above essential information, which is necessary for an average consumer to make an informed choice, is not phrased in clear and consistent terms, the requirement of transparency is undermined (Mak 2020). Consequently, consumers enter B2C legal transactions ‘without understanding that they lack understanding’ of crucial information on possible outcomes and economic consequences of a transaction (Mišćenić 2018).
