7. Processing of communications at GIH - Email security

Communications you send to GIH via the Internet will not be considered confidential.

 

When communicating with us by e-mail, you should take into account that the protection of e-mail messages transmitted over the Internet is not guaranteed. Therefore, by sending important, unencrypted messages via email, you accept the risks of this uncertainty.

 

 

8. Prohibited Activities

GIH reserves the right to prohibit (e.g. by deleting the content concerned or by limiting/prohibiting access to all or part of the Site), without prior notice, any act that we may deem inappropriate and/or that we may consider to be contrary to the law, or to decency or which, more generally, would contravene the spirit of an offer or be fraudulent,  including (without limitation) posting on the Site any content that, in our sole opinion, may be detrimental to GIH's (or third parties') security systems or may contain insulting, aggressive, defamatory, racist, obscene, threatening, pornographic, illegal/immoral or otherwise disturbing language or engaging in conduct that, in our sole opinion,  is detrimental to the interests of GIH or its partners.

 

Unless previously agreed in writing by GIH, the user whose access to the Site has been removed is no longer authorized to register on the Site, whether under his name or under another name. In the event of prohibited activity, GIH reserves the right to suspend or discontinue an offer or even to revoke the relevant orders.

9. Forums

The publication on our forums of commercial links and/or prohibited content within the meaning of Article 9 is prohibited.

 

Any contributor who does not comply with the Terms of Use will have their content removed, or even their access to the forums or the Site restricted/prohibited.

 

Some content may also be automatically hidden due to community censorship (high number of downvotes relating to a post) or for other reasons freely decided by GIH.

 

10. No Warranties

Use of the Site is at your own risk.

 

The Site is provided to you on an "as is" and "as available" basis. Therefore, GIH does not offer any guarantees.

To the extent permitted by law, any liability of GIH, its bodies, affiliates and representatives, which may arise from your access to or use of the site, is excluded. As a condition precedent to your use of the Site, you agree to indemnify GIH, as well as its organs, affiliates and representatives from any damages (including court and attorneys' fees) that may result from your access to – or use of – the Site.

 

12. Partial nullity

Any provision of the Terms of Use that is, in whole or in part, in contradiction with Swiss mandatory law shall be severable and any invalidity, in whole or in part, of such a clause shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the clause in question, nor of the other clauses of the Terms of Use. If any provision of the Terms of Use is found to be ineffective in whole or in part, it should be replaced by a provision that produces economic and legal effects as close as possible to those of the invalidated provision.

 

13. Miscellaneous

The Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between GIH and you with respect to access to and use of the Site and the Content.

 

The fact that GIH tolerates breaches by you of any of your obligations under the Terms of Use, or that you do not require the application of a right that is recognized by the Terms of Use or by law, cannot be interpreted as a waiver on its part of the right to invoke it.

The exclusive jurisdiction is Lausanne, subject to an appeal to the Federal Court.
