 Consumer Protection, Private International Law and Internet Contracts

There are four possibilities as to which law governs the formation of the choice-of-law clause: the law of the forum, the law chosen in the choice-of-law clause, the law which would apply in the absence of a choice of law or, by rejection of a fixed rule, the law determined by the court's discretion.
In this context, private international law is concerned with two major issues: determining the applicable law to the contract and deciding which courts have jurisdiction to hear the case.
