7.       Guarantee and Cancelling a digital download

 

7.1    This Section 7 applies to all our customers that purchase any content under these terms and conditions:

Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations, digital downloads are neither goods nor services, meaning the law is a little different. 

For digital downloads, consumers will need to waive their cancellation rights before digital content can be provided. This means that once a consumer/customer has downloaded the content, then they have given up their consumer rights to a refund. 

Consumers will typically waive these cancellation rights when they purchase the digital goods. This can be done through some form of verification box (such as a tickbox) for consumers to acknowledge that they have waived their consumer rights to a refund for digital content.

If you do have an issue with any product purchased that contain OS Data we reserve the right to request further information about the problem as well a sharing your details with Ordnance Survey (Ordnance Survey Limited, Explorer House, Adanac Drive, Nursling, Southampton, SO16 0AS, Registration No: 09121572).

8.2    In the UK the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013 (Regulations) provides consumers with the right to cancel distance and off-premises contracts, although this right doesn’t apply if the digital goods ordered have been made to the consumer’s specifications and are clearly personalised (this applies to all products available via this website).

8.3    You agree that we may begin the provision of contents before the expiry of the period referred to in Section 8.2, and you acknowledge that, if we do begin the provision of contents before the end of that period, you will lose the right to cancel referred to in Section 8.2.
