8.3 Right of Withdrawal (Distance Selling)
Right of Withdrawal
In accordance with the Cyprus Consumer Protection Law (L.112(I)/2021) and EU Directive 2011/83/EU, consumers generally have the right to withdraw from a distance contract within fourteen (14) calendar days without giving any reason.
Exceptions to the Right of Withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
• The supply of food, beverages, groceries or other goods which are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly
• The supply of prepared meals or products made to the consumer’s specifications
• Sealed goods which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons and were unsealed after delivery
• Services which have been fully performed with the consumer’s consent before the end of the withdrawal period
As Vello operates a food and local-commerce marketplace, the majority of products and services offered via the platform fall under these exceptions and are not eligible for withdrawal once preparation or delivery has commenced.
Eligible Products (Where Applicable)
In limited cases where non-perishable goods are offered by sub-merchants and are eligible for withdrawal, the consumer may exercise their right of withdrawal within fourteen (14) days from the date of delivery, provided that:
• The product is unused, unopened, and in its original condition
• The withdrawal request is submitted through the Vello application or by contacting customer support
Any approved refund will be processed to the original payment method within a reasonable timeframe. Banking processing times may vary depending on the card issuer.
