Consumer protection rights include the right to safety, the right to be informed, the right to choose, the right to be heard, the right to redress, and the right to education. These rights ensure that consumers are protected from unsafe products, have access to accurate information about products and services, can make informed choices, have a voice in the marketplace, can seek compensation for damages, and are educated about their rights and responsibilities as consumers.
Consumer protection responsibilities include the responsibility to be informed, the responsibility to make informed choices, the responsibility to use products and services safely, the responsibility to seek redress when necessary, and the responsibility to report unethical or illegal business practices. Consumers are responsible for educating themselves about products and services, reading labels and product information, using products as intended, seeking refunds or compensation when necessary, and reporting any fraudulent or deceptive practices to the appropriate authorities. By fulfilling these responsibilities, consumers can protect themselves and contribute to a fair and ethical marketplace.
