Consumers and operators to sign the contract format, such as a written agreement, they should pay attention to what

In the consumer area, format contract is for operators and consumers and the conclusion of the contract unilaterally drawn up the terms of the contract. As a result of this contract is not developed in consultation with consumers, consumers in a passive position of disadvantage, the signing of the contract, consumers must pay attention to whether there are not conducive to the terms of their existence.

Second, the contract shall not relieve the operator, the damage from its legitimate rights and interests of victims Consumers should bear civil liability. For consumers, their legitimate rights and interests of a remedy and reparation for the most effective way is to enable operators to undertake corresponding civil liability. Such civil liability, with the exception of the law, no one shall be arbitrarily reduce or waive, or is directly contrary to the "Consumer Protection Law."
