    In the event of an effective revocation, the services or licenses received by both parties shall be returned and any benefits derived shall be surrendered.

This does not apply to the surrender of goods if the deterioration of the goods is exclusively due to their inspection. In all other respects, the obligation to pay compensation for a deterioration caused by the intended use of the item can be avoided by not using the item as if it were the owner and by refraining from doing anything that could impair its value. Items that can be sent by parcel post are to be returned at the customer's own expense and risk. Obligations to refund payments must be fulfilled within 30 days. The period begins with the dispatch of the declaration of revocation or the goods, for MFC media & consulting Ltd. with their receipt or their receipt by third parties commissioned by us.
