Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).
Article 496 Standard Terms were drafted in advance by the parties for reuse, and there was no consultation between the parties when concluding the contract. Where a contract is concluded by standard terms, the party providing the standard terms shall follow the principle of fairness to determine the rights and obligations between the parties, and take reasonable measures such as exempting or lightening their responsibilities to remind the other party of the terms that have a significant interest in them, and explain the terms according to the requirements of the other party. If the party providing the standard terms fails to perform the obligation of prompting or explaining, so that the other party fails to pay attention to or understand the terms with which it has a significant interest, the other party may claim that the terms will not become the content of the contract.
Article 497 A standard clause is invalid under any of the following circumstances: (1) It is invalid in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 of Chapter VI of Part I of this Law and Article 506; (2) The party providing the standard terms unreasonably exempts or lightens its responsibilities, aggravates the responsibilities of the other party or restricts the main rights of the other party; (3) The party providing the standard terms excludes the other party's main rights.
