ARTICLE 7 — THIRD-PARTY SERVICES AND LINKS

The Platform may embed, link to, or rely on third-party services, including but not limited to: payment providers, the badge/check-in vendor, the networking and matchmaking engine, video/livestreaming platforms, and analytics providers.

ARTICLE 8 — AVAILABILITY, DISCLAIMERS AND LIABILITY

8.1 GETC takes reasonable technical and organisational measures to keep the Platform available, accurate, and secure, but does not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, or fault-free operation, and does not warrant that the Platform is free of viruses or other harmful components, without prejudice to the measures described in the Privacy Policy. 8.2 To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, GETC is not liable for damages of any kind arising from: (a) temporary unavailability, interruption, or malfunction of the Platform; (b) errors or omissions in content provided by third parties; (c) unauthorised access to a User's account resulting from the User's failure to safeguard their own credentials; (d) the User's misuse of the Platform. 8.3 Nothing in this Article limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for any other liability that applicable Spanish or EU law does not permit to be excluded.

ARTICLE 11 — SEVERABILITY

If any provision of this Legal Notice is held invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, that provision will be deemed severed, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, with the invalid provision replaced, to the extent possible, by a valid provision that reflects the original commercial intent.

ARTICLE 12 — GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

This Legal Notice is governed by Spanish law. Subject to any mandatory consumer-protection forum rules that cannot be excluded, disputes arising from the use of the Platform will be submitted to the courts of Valencia, Spain.

LEGAL REVIEW NOTE

Insert the actual contracting entity only after Finance/Legal confirm who invoices ticket buyers and signs exhibitor/partner contracts — this entity must be identical on the website, in the app, on invoices and on the payment account. Article 8 (disclaimers/liability) and Article 12 (jurisdiction) must be reviewed against the final consumer-facing sales model before publication; a Spanish-language version of this Notice is required under LSSI-CE and must be legally equivalent to this English draft, not a loose translation.

Final sign-off from Spanish counsel, and a certified Spanish translation, are still required before publication.
