Provision of and/or access to any files on the Site by downloading them is carried out at your own responsibility and at your own risks and perils.

6. - LIABILITY

6.1. You will recognise and accept that the Internet network or any other network used for transmitting stored data may be saturated and/or that the data exchanged through the network may be diverted and, consequently, You will release HELP4NET from any liability in this respect.

Furthermore, HELP4NET may not be held responsible for interference by third parties in the communication and transmission systems that You use or any malfunction or stoppage of the Service due to negligence, faults or any act whatsoever on your part or by a third party to the present contract.

In particular, HELP4NET may not be held responsible for any failure when receiving data and/or invitations transmitted to Guests, if these failures are the result of filtering and/or blocking techniques installed by technical agents, such as service providers, not included in the present contract. If You observe faults such as these, You should contact your Internet service provider.

6.2. You will recognise and accept that, as the Service is only intended for storing a copy of the data stored on the hard disk of your computer terminal, HELP4NET may not be held responsible for consequences resulting from the loss of any data.

6.4. The data stored on the HELP4NET servers will remain your full and exclusive property.

HELP4NET does not have the technical ability and is not permitted to check the data stored and/or transmitted from/to your server.

Consequently, HELP4NET cannot be held responsible for the presence on your servers or restoration on your computer terminal of fraudulently obtained data and/or data that is forbidden by law or by regulations.

You alone have the ability of choosing whether to register these files or not, to keep them, share them, send them or destroy them and You alone will bear the responsibility for these choices.
