Depending on the laws applicable to a customer's purchase, certain withdrawal or cancellation rights may apply.

Where permitted by applicable law, such rights may cease once delivery of digital content begins if the customer has expressly requested or consented to immediate access and acknowledged that beginning delivery may affect or end the applicable withdrawal or cancellation right.

Mandatory consumer rights will always be respected.
