How the consumers can be protected in case of contracts signed remotely in terms of the OUG provisions no. 34/2014

The article is written in the spirit of presenting the benefits offered to the consumers, parties of remote contracts, following the harmonization of the consumer protection national legislation with the European standards. The Ordinance no. 34/2014 is the one transposing internally the Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, on the consumer rights, published in the European Union Official Journal, series L, no. 304 of 22.11.2011. The OUG no. 34/2014 revokes the OG no. 130/2000 on the remote contracts and creates a coherent framework designed to regulate certain aspects of the relationship between the consumers and the professionals when signing this type of contract and is aimed at protecting the consumers' rights.
