1.1. Platform users

Browsing and using the Platform confers the status of user and implies full and unconditional acceptance of all the provisions included in these General Terms of Use, as published by ANIMAL MAX at the time of access.

Users must be at least 18 years of age; use by persons under that age is prohibited. In the event of a breach of these terms, ANIMAL MAX may prevent access to the Platform, suspend services or deactivate user accounts, without this giving rise to any right to compensation.

1.2. Amendment of terms

Users are advised to read these terms carefully each time they access the Platform, as they may be modified for legal, technical, corporate or self-regulatory reasons. Wherever possible, ANIMAL MAX will give advance notice of any changes that are material to users' rights and interests. If you do not agree, you may unsubscribe from the relevant service.

1.3. Validity

If any of these terms is declared null, invalid or unenforceable, this will not affect the validity of the remaining terms, which shall continue to be binding on the parties. A waiver of the right to enforce any term shall not constitute a general waiver or create a vested right for the other party.

1.4. Duration

Access to the content of the Platform is, in principle, of indefinite duration. ANIMAL MAX is authorised to terminate or suspend the provision of services at any time in compliance with applicable regulations, and will provide prior notice where reasonably practicable.

2.2. Navigation, registration and data forms

As a general rule, initial access to the Platform does not require prior registration by users.

ANIMAL MAX reserves the right to modify the registration system at any time for legal, technical or corporate reasons.

2.3. Accuracy, correctness and currency of information

The data entered by users in registration or data-capture forms must at all times be accurate, current and truthful, and will be processed by ANIMAL MAX in accordance with data protection legislation.

2.5. Use of the artificial intelligence chatbot

The Platform may make available to users an automated assistance system ("chatbot") based on artificial intelligence, whose purpose is to provide general information, guidance and support in the navigation and use of ANIMAL MAX's services.

The user is hereby informed that:
