Ofertas sujetas a reserva: A propósito de los términos y condiciones en los contratos celebrados por medios electrónicos

Abstract

Not much attention has been in paid in Chilean Law neither to offers subject to reserve, nor to the terms and conditions in contracts held by electronic means. A recent case, currently in court, shows the utility of studying both matters. The author tries to show how, in the e-commerce, the problem of the contract nature of the terms and conditions lies in the fact that these are accessible to users. In practice, the efficiency of the deliberate reserve expressed by the predisponent depends on that the consumer has had a clear and unmistakable access to the terms and conditions implied.
