OBJECT AND SCOPE OF APPLICATION

However, certain services or content offered on the Website are or may be subject to "Specific Terms of Use," which may complement or replace these Conditions regarding the use of the specific service they refer to. Prior to contracting such services, the User may access the specific conditions applicable to them and, in particular, must accept them to formalize the corresponding contract.

ACCEPTANCE OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE


Access to the terms of use is free and automatically confers the status of "User", implying full acceptance of these Conditions. These Conditions, as well as their modifications or other legal notices, will be available on the Website and will be understood to be in force from their publication on the same. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY, AS ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE SERVICES OF THE WEBSITE SIGNIFIES THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND ACCEPTED, WITHOUT ANY RESERVATIONS, THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Therefore, if the considerations detailed in this Legal Notice are not to your satisfaction, please do not use the Website, as any use you make of it or the services and contents included therein will imply acceptance of the legal terms set forth in this text.

In order to keep the information published on the Website up to date, its contents may be modified, corrected, deleted, or added at any time, so it will be convenient to check their validity or accuracy by consulting official sources. The User will be able to know when the latest modifications have come into effect, as the date of the last update and the effective date of the same are inserted at the bottom of these Terms and Conditions of Use.

VIBLIOTEC reserves the right to unilaterally modify, at any time and without prior notice, the presentation and configuration of the Website, as well as to update, modify, or delete the information contained on the Website, the services, and the conditions required to access or use the Website and its services. The use or access to the Website or services will imply acceptance of the new conditions from the moment they occur.

Likewise, VIBLIOTEC will have the power to suspend or modify all or part of the Website, its contents, services, or functionalities, as well as to charge, modify, or waive the rights that must be paid, announcing it with reasonable advance notice. However, VIBLIOTEC may exclude this period of advance notice in case of force majeure or extreme necessity that must be justified by it.

CONDITIONS OF USE OF CONTENT


VIBLIOTEC provides on the Website information regarding its services, the operation of its applications, as well as various Customer Service channels for them.

The links contained on this Website to other websites are included because they are considered interesting for the User, without implying the existence of any relationship, promotion, or professional connection between VIBLIOTEC and the owners of such sites. VIBLIOTEC has no control over such websites and therefore does not respond for the content, services offered, or the status of such websites.

VIBLIOTEC makes available to the User, through different tools and applications, linking means that allow users to access the channels and pages of the Website that VIBLIOTEC maintains on different platforms and social networks owned and/or managed by third parties (e.g., Twitter, Linkedin, etc.). The inclusion of these links on the Website is solely intended to facilitate users' access to such channels on different platforms and social networks.

The establishment of these applications does not imply the existence of any relationship between VIBLIOTEC and the owner, manufacturer, or distributor of the linked platform, nor does it imply VIBLIOTEC's acceptance and approval of its contents and/or services, with the owner, manufacturer, or distributor being solely responsible for them.

The activation and use of these applications may involve the identification and authentication of the User (username/password) on the corresponding platforms, completely external to the Website and beyond the control of VIBLIOTEC. By accessing such external networks, the User enters an environment not controlled by VIBLIOTEC, so VIBLIOTEC assumes no responsibility for the security configuration of such environments.

Given that VIBLIOTEC has no control over the content hosted on such channels, the User acknowledges and accepts that VIBLIOTEC assumes no responsibility for the content or services that the User may access on such pages, nor for any content, products, services, advertising, or any other material available on them. Therefore, the User must exercise caution in evaluating and using the information, content, and services available on the linked channels, as well as the information of their own or of third parties that they may wish to share on such channels.

VIBLIOTEC does not have the authority or the human or technical means to know, control, or approve all the information, content, products, or services provided by other websites that have established links to the Website. VIBLIOTEC assumes no responsibility for any aspect related to the website that establishes such a link to the Website, including but not limited to its operation, access, data, information, files, quality, and reliability of its products and services, its own links, and/or any of its contents, in general.
