10.1

The European Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) is a platform provided by the European Commission to help settle online consumer disputes. Its content is stated in the Regulation (EU) No 524/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2013 on online dispute resolution for consumer disputes and amending Regulation (EC) No 2006/2004 and Directive 2009/22/EC (Regulation on consumer ODR).

10.2

According to point 8 of the the Regulation's preliminary provisions, “ODR offers a simple, efficient, fast and low-cost out-of-court solution to disputes arising from online transactions.” The platform allows consumers to resolve both local and cross-border disputes by filling in an electronic complaint form available in all the official languages of the institutions of the Union, and to attach relevant documents. This alternative way of resolving online consumer disputes does not preclude litigation in courts.

10.3

The procedure consists in submitting local disputes to organisms which are connected to ODR and which provide efficient mechanisms of Alternative Dispute Resolution. To that effect, the designated ODR contact point in Spain is the CEC (the Spanish branch of the European Consumer Centre), dependent on AECOSAN (the Spanish Agency for Consumer Affairs, Food Safety and Nutrition.) The task of the CEC is to assist consumers in managing their online complaints.
