The user is also deemed to read our Privacy Statement and take cognisance of all other rights and obligations that are clearly mentioned on the website.

Ranson reserves the right to change the provisions of these Conditions of Use, and the user is asked to read them before each use.

2. Registration

Registration may be required. Users who wish to obtain access to certain functionalities and specific information on our website need to register. In order to register, the user must at least have reached the age of 18.

This obligation applies both at the moment of creation of the user profile and in the future. It is the user's sole responsibility to correct or delete outdated information.

Each user profile is strictly individual, personal and confidential. The user is not allowed to transfer his/her user profile to third parties without express permission from Ranson. The user shall be solely responsible for all actions performed with the user profile and shall also ensure the confidentiality of the user profile, including the login data.

The user must report any breach of the confidential nature of his/her user profile to Ranson. In such case, Ranson shall take the necessary steps to restore confidentiality.

4. Measures

Ranson reserves the right to adopt any reasonable and appropriate measures if the user acts contrary to these Conditions of Use and/or applicable law, third-party rights or the generally accepted Internet code of conduct. Ranson shall have ample choice when it comes to the adoption of a sanction and remediation measure and the scope of that measure. However, measures must always be in proportion to the breach.

For instance, Ranson may suspend the right of use, temporarily and/or permanently, and/or eliminate the user profile. Ranson may also limit the user's general access and access to functionalities on the website, either entirely or in part, temporarily or permanently.

When required by the circumstances, these measures may be taken without any prior warning or notification. In no case shall the user be entitled to claim a reimbursement or damages in relation the measures taken.

6. Intellectual property rights

Creativity deserves protection, and our website and its content are no exception. This protection is provided by intellectual property rights and all beneficiaries are entitled to it, i.e. Ranson and third parties. Content refers to the very broad category of photos, video, audio, text, ideas, notes, drawings, articles, et cetera. All of this content is protected by copyright, software rights, database rights, rights related to drawings and models and other applicable (intellectual) property rights. The technical nature of our website itself is protected by copyright, software rights and database rights. Ranson (TM), its tag lines, logo(s), colour combination and any trade name we use on our Platform are also protected by the applicable intellectual property right. We therefore ask our users not to use and/or modify the intellectual property described in this section without permission from the beneficiary.

The user undertakes not to breach the intellectual property rights of Ranson or any other party in any way. If the user breaches intellectual property rights belonging to third parties, this breach can never be attributed to Ranson. Any de facto or legal consequences shall therefore be entirely for the user's account.

7. Protection of personal data

Although most information on the website is available without the need for the user to provide personal data, the user may be asked to provide personal information. We process these personal data in accordance with our privacy statement.

8. Use of cookies

We use cookies on our website. You can read more about this in our cookie policy.

9. Miscellaneous provisions

Ranson reserves the right to modify, expand, reduce or stop the website at any time. The exercise of this right does not require any prior notification to the user, nor does it give rise to damages.

If the effect or validity of one or more of the above provisions of these Conditions of Use should be undermined, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this agreement. In such case, we shall be entitled to replace the provision concerned with a valid provision with a similar meaning.

All titles we use in our Conditions of Use are purely by way of illustration. This means no legal value can be attributed to them.
