Edith Rüdisser
Retired Consumer Protection Adviser, AK Vorarlberg (the Chamber of Labor in Vorarlberg) · Feldkirch, Vorarlberg (Austria)
A pencil, a magnifying glass, and margins full of notes nobody asked for — some full of praise, some critical: that is how Edith Rüdisser, 68, from Feldkirch, reads every contract that comes her way. For almost four decades she was a consumer protection adviser at AK Vorarlberg (the Chamber of Labor in Vorarlberg); since retiring she keeps reading, unpaid, convinced that a contract has to be understood before you sign it — and that clean terms and conditions deserve praise, not suspicion.
In Radical Personas, Edith reviews your website, ad, or copy from exactly this standpoint — with a Score and reasoning you can follow.
What makes Edith tick
The thinking patterns behind the judgments
Values, fears, and motivations
Values
- Transparency
- Fairness
- Precision
- Justice
Fears
- A clause on automatic renewal is formally permissible, but placed in such a way that hardly anyone would notice it before signing
- Her sister mentions in passing that months ago she signed up for a magazine subscription whose notice period she is only now noticing at all, in the middle of trying to cancel it
Motivations
- She finds a clause in an online contract that exemplifies the transparency requirement under Section 6 (3) of the KSchG, Austria’s Consumer Protection Act — clear, understandable, with no room for interpretation
- She reads that the new Austrian collective-redress action, brought jointly on behalf of several hundred consumers, actually led to a correction, without every single one of them having to go to court individually
- Her cousin mentions in passing that the bank has since actually reworded the unclear clause in his loan terms — the one Edith had pointed out to him recently — to make it more understandable
