Continued browsing of the website [www.galileotanks.com] (the “Site“) constitutes unreserved acceptance of these terms of use (the “Terms“).

The version of the Terms available online at the time of browsing the Site is the only version enforceable throughout the period of use of the Site, until replaced by a new version.

GALILEO reserves the right to modify or update the Terms at any time and without notice. It is the responsibility of the Site user to consult them regularly in order to stay informed.

2. Site Content

GALILEO endeavours, through its service providers, to ensure the proper functioning and IT security of the Site, as well as the accuracy and updating of the information published on it. However, GALILEO cannot guarantee the accuracy, precision or completeness of the information available on the Site. It is the responsibility of Site users to verify information through other means, including, where applicable, by contacting GALILEO.

GALILEO reserves the right to modify, at its sole discretion, at any time and without notice, the content of the Site.

3. Intellectual Property

All trademarks, photographs, texts, comments, illustrations, animated or still images, video sequences, sounds, as well as all computer applications that may be used to operate this site, and more generally all elements reproduced or used on the Site, are protected under applicable intellectual property laws. They are the full and exclusive property of GALILEO and/or its partners or, failing that, GALILEO holds the rights enabling their distribution on the Site.

Any reproduction, representation, use or adaptation, in any form whatsoever, of all or part of these elements, including computer applications, without the prior written consent of GALILEO, is strictly prohibited. The fact that GALILEO does not initiate proceedings as soon as it becomes aware of such unauthorised use does not constitute acceptance of such use or a waiver of the right to take legal action.

4. Site Management

GALILEO endeavours to ensure the proper functioning of the Site but cannot guarantee permanent accessibility of the Site to users.

Indeed, for the proper management of the Site, GALILEO may, in particular and at any time:

– suspend, interrupt or limit access to all or part of the Site, or restrict access to the Site, or to certain parts of the Site, to a specific category or to all users;

– remove any information likely to disrupt its operation or that breaches national or international law, or the rules of netiquette;

– suspend the Site in order to carry out updates.

5. Liability

GALILEO’s liability cannot be engaged in the event of failure, breakdown, difficulty or interruption of operation preventing access to the Site or to one of its features.

The connection equipment that Site users use is entirely their own responsibility. Site users must take all appropriate measures to protect their equipment and their own data, in particular against viral attacks via the Internet. Site users are, moreover, solely responsible for the sites and data they consult.

GALILEO cannot be held liable for:

  • any inaccuracy, error or omission concerning information available on the Site;
  • any damage resulting from fraudulent intrusion by a third party leading to a modification of the information made available to users on the Site;
  • more generally, for any direct or indirect damage, whatever the causes, origins, nature or consequences, arising from anyone’s access to the Site or the inability to access it, as well as the use of the Site and/or reliance placed on any information originating directly or indirectly from it.

GALILEO cannot be held liable in the event of legal proceedings against users:

  • arising from the use of the Site or any service accessible via the Internet;
  • arising from users’ failure to comply with the provisions of these terms of use.

GALILEO is not liable for damage caused to Site users and/or their equipment, and/or to third parties as a result of connecting to or using the Site. Any Site user therefore waives any action against GALILEO.

Should GALILEO become the subject of an amicable or judicial procedure due to the use of the Site, it reserves the right to take action against the Site user to obtain compensation for all damages, sums, judgments and costs that may arise from such procedure.

6. Privacy Policy
