General Terms and Conditions
The Terms and Conditions ("Terms") concern a set of legal provisions established by the owner of a website. They describe the general conditions applicable to the activities of the visitors of the mentioned website and the relationship between the website visitors and the website owner.
The Terms must be established based on the specific needs and nature of each website. For example, a website that offers e-commerce products to customers requires different terms than a website that only provides information.
The Terms provide the website owner with the opportunity to protect themselves against potential legal claims.
