Customers should be duly informed about the limitations in advance. Those limitations should be recognisable by a third party, for example by including information about the limitations in the terms and conditions of the service provided or through other recognisable means. For the purposes of giving effect to those principles, <span style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>this Regulation should be applied in accordance with national rules on liability</span>. Therefore, this Regulation does not affect those national rules on, for example, definition of damages, intention, negligence, or relevant applicable procedural rules.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:9.5pt;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>And recital 67 says<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:8.5pt;color:black'>67) </span><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:9.5pt;color:black'>Website authentication services provide a means by which a visitor to a website can be assured that there is a genuine and legitimate entity standing behind the website.

In addition, this Regulation should not impede the use of other means or methods to authenticate a website not falling under this Regulation nor should it prevent third country providers of website authentication services from providing their services to customers in the Union. However, a third country provider should only have its website authentication services recognised as qualified in accordance with this Regulation, if an international agreement between the Union and the country of establishment of the provider has been concluded.</span><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>Also you can read article 11 on liability, article 13 on liability and burden of proof.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'>Article 24 “Requirements for qualified TSPs” in 2 (c) says<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:9.5pt;color:black'>2.
