31Nor may the above considerations be called into question by the fact, relied on in particular by Allianz, that, according to the Court’s case-law, the right of cancellation under Article 5(1) of Directive 85/577 can expire even when the consumer has received mistaken information concerning the exercise of that right (see Case C-412/06 Hamilton [2008] ECR I-2383, paragraph 49). That judgment concerns the conformity with that directive of a national provision providing for such an expiry one month after the contracting parties have completely performed the obligations under the contract. However, the present case does not concern such a provision, since the national legislature did not adopt such a provision with regard to life assurance contracts.
