The withdrawal function shall be labelled with the words ‘withdraw from contract here’ or an unambiguous corresponding formulation in an easily legible way. The withdrawal function shall be continuously available during the withdrawal period. It shall be prominently displayed on the online interface and easily accessible to the consumer.

the consumer’s name;
(b)
details identifying the contract from which the consumer wishes to withdraw; and
