Pursuant to EU law, the consumer has the right to inform Para Bellum of his withdrawal from the sale, without payment of any fine and without giving an excuse, within fourteen (14) calendar days from the day following the day on which the consumer or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by the consumer acquires physical possession of the goods or (i) in the case of multiple goods ordered by the consumer in one order and delivered separately, the day on which the consumer or a third party other than the carrier and on the consumer’s behalf acquires physical possession of the last good, or (ii) in the case of delivery of a good consisting of multiple lots or pieces, the day on which the consumer or a third party other than the carrier and on the consumer’s behalf acquires physical possession of the last lot or piece, or in the case of contracts for regular delivery of goods during defined period of time, the day on which the consumer or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by the consumer acquires physical possession of the first good.
