Access to the Website by Users is free of charge. However, the use, provision and/or acquisition of any products or services that may be offered by the Company may be subject to prior fulfilment of formal requirements, such as filling in the corresponding form, paying expenses or fees and/or accepting beforehand any specific conditions that may be applicable thereto.

Mere access to the Website does not in itself imply the establishment of any type of commercial link or relationship between you and the Company, except where the appropriate steps have been taken for such purpose and you have fulfilled any prerequisites that are established.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, the inclusion on the Website of information regarding products or services offered by the Company is purely for information and advertising purposes.

You will be solely liable for the use and/or acquisition of products or services by any unauthorised third party that uses for such purpose a password obtained through your negligent use or loss.

Consequently, you are required to immediately notify the Company of any circumstances that may lead to the improper use of the IDs and/or passwords, such as theft, loss or unauthorised access, so that they can be immediately cancelled. Until the Company is informed of such circumstances, it will be held harmless for any liability that may arise from improper use of the IDs or passwords by unauthorised third parties.

(ii) Use them in ways that harm the legitimate rights of third parties.

(iii) Use the content and products and, in particular, any type of information obtained via the Website or the services to send advertisements, communications in connection with direct sales or any other type of commercial communication or unsolicited messages to a group of people, regardless of the purpose, abstaining from otherwise commercialising or disclosing such information by any means.

Likewise, the inclusion or communication of content by Users that is false or inaccurate and that can or may mislead other Users or the Company's personnel, in particular content protected by any intellectual or industrial property rights owned by third parties where authorisation has not been obtained from the owner of the rights, that breaches or tarnishes the reputation or credit of the Company or any entity forming part of the FCC Group, that constitutes illegal, misleading or unfair advertising and/or contains viruses or any other electronic elements that may harm or hinder the operation of the Website, the network, the hardware of the Company or third parties and/or access to the Website by other Users is strictly prohibited.

6. Links

6.1 Links from the Website to other sites

The Company may offer direct or indirect links to Internet resources or websites that are outside the Website. Such links are provided on the Website for information purposes and do not, under any circumstances, constitute an invitation to acquire the products and/or services offered or that may be offered on such target sites nor does it imply the existence of a tie, commercial relationship or a relationship of dependence with the owner of the target website. In these cases, the Company accepts no liability for the general or specific conditions to be considered in the use, provision or acquisition of such services by third parties and, therefore, cannot be held liable for them.

The Company does not have the power or the human or technical resources to ascertain, oversee or approve all information, content, products or services provided on other pages to which it offers links through its Website. Consequently, the Company cannot accept any liability for any aspect relating to these websites to which this Website links, including specifically, but not limited to, their operation, access, data, information, files, quality and reliability of their products and services, their own links and/or any content in general.

Nevertheless, if the Company becomes aware that these links lead to activity or information that is illegal, constitutes a crime or may damage the goods or violate the rights of third parties, it will act with the necessary diligence to eliminate or disable the corresponding link as soon as possible.

Additionally, if Users become aware that the activities carried out through such third party websites are illegal, they should notify the Company immediately so that it can disable the link in question.

Unless the Company authorises otherwise, under no circumstances may the web page from which the link derives reproduce, in any way, the Website, include it as part of its site or within one of its frames or create a browser on any of the Website pages.

(iv) The web page from which the link is established must not in any way state that the Company has authorised such a link, unless that is indeed the case.
