5.2 Your Explicit Consent to Immediate Production
IMPORTANT — Please read carefully:
By confirming your order, you explicitly acknowledge and agree to:
- The product is personalised and one-of-a-kind

- You lose your statutory 14-day withdrawal right under FAGG § 18 Abs. 1 Z 3 because the goods are personalised
- You consent to the immediate delivery and use of the digital PDF content (FAGG § 18 Abs. 1 Z 11), and hereby waive your withdrawal right for digital content
Both withdrawal rights (personalised goods and digital content) are presented separately in accordance with Austrian consumer law.
5.3 Digital Content — Separate Consent
