Adaptions for german market

Hello,

I'm searching a shop solution for an ebook store for the german market.

I think everything is alright with your solution but here in germany a shop owner has to follow some certain consumer rights as for example the so called "Widerrufsrecht". In order to being conform with the german law there must be a part in the checkout process in which the consumer can read the "Widerrufsrecht" and confirm this by checking a checkbox.

This must be recorded to the user's profile.

Another thing is that the consumer has to confirm by checking a checkbox that he or she has taken note of the german "privacy policy" which means data security.

This confirmation must also be recorded.

So my question is if you are able to implement these requirements into the checkout process (before the user is transferred to paypal)

Please give me a short feedback.

Kind regards

Hi Horst,

By default, no checkboxes are required — so those would have to be integrated into the shopping cart checkout area.

I don't see it being that difficult to add a couple of checkboxes with text links to the documents into the shopping cart page.  (the page that displays is "ajCart/cart.php")   You could then just setup some javascript alerts that popup and cancel the post if the checkboxes are not checked.

To have this actually "recorded" may be a little tougher, because Market Theme connects with Paypal.  All of the customer information (name, address, email, products ordered, etc.) is archived by Paypal — and not your WordPress Market Theme install. 

You could certainly not let them proceed until they check the boxes, but for Paypal to record them — it would require some research into how to provide additional custom data.  Pretty sure it could be done though.

I hope this helps.
