Hi,

Based on 2.2.1 Timing Adjustable, the essential exception is the following:

"if removed, would fundamentally change the information or functionality
of the content, and information and functionality cannot be achieved in
another way that would conform ."

I am in doubt that if is a company offer a special discount available
for 60 seconds is essential exception or not? This is not listed in
success criterion 2.2.1.

Regards,

Zsolt
