35The purpose of Directive 2011/83 is to afford consumers extensive protection by conferring on them a number of rights in relation to, inter alia, distance contracts. The objective of the EU legislature is to avoid a situation where the use of means of distance communication leads to a reduction in the information provided to the consumer (see, by analogy, judgment of 5 July 2012, Content Services, C‑49/11, EU:C:2012:419, paragraph 36).
