1.5 We may amend these Terms of Use and/or the Privacy Policy from time to time, in particular to reflect changes in our Services, our business practices, or applicable law. Where an amendment is material, we will provide notice by posting it on the Website and, where you hold a registered Account, by email to the address associated with your Account, at least 14 days before the amendment takes effect. Your continued access to or use of the Website or Services after the effective date of any amendment constitutes your acceptance of the amended Terms.

Likewise, we may at any time modify the content and form of our Services or remove some of them, and the technical characteristics of the Website may also be changed at any time in a discretionary manner.
1.6 Third-party websites that may be reached through our Portals are not subject to the principles laid down herein.
2.1 The Website is powered and operated by Yatzo SA, with its registered seat at Rue du Rhône 80–84, CH-1204 Geneva, Switzerland.
2.2 The Visitor may at any time contact us:

3.2 Where you register for an Account or purchase a Subscription, you may be contracting with Yatzo SA or with the relevant Affiliate operating in your jurisdiction or market. The identity of the contracting party will be indicated to you at the point of registration or purchase.
3.3 Each Affiliate independently manages its relationship with its own Subscribers, including the applicable Additional Terms, pricing, invoicing, support, and data processing arrangements relevant to the Services it provides. We recommend that you review the specific terms and conditions presented by the Affiliate through which you access the Services, as these may supplement or differ from these GTC and, in accordance with Section 1.2, shall prevail over these GTC to the extent of any conflict with respect to the relevant Service.
3.4 Nothing in this Section shall be construed as making Yatzo SA liable for the acts, omissions or contractual undertakings of any other Affiliate, or as creating any partnership, joint venture, or joint and several liability between members of the Yatzo Group, except as required by mandatory law.
Throughout these General Terms & Conditions, the following terms have the meaning set forth below:
5.1 Yatzo.com is a high-technology data intelligence platform delivering advanced SaaS and DaaS solutions to stakeholders across the global boating and marine industry. The platform is designed to streamline large-scale data ingestion, normalisation and curation, eliminate information silos, and generate actionable insights through a robust, scalable infrastructure. Yatzo provides users with real-time access to a continuously enriched and dynamic dataset, enabling precise decision-making, market monitoring, predictive analytics, and strategic planning.
5.2 The Visitor is informed that the Services are subject to constant evolution.
5.3 Where the Visitor purchases a paid Subscription or otherwise accesses a paid tier of the Services, the specific commercial terms applicable to that Subscription — including price, duration, renewal, payment terms, applicable usage limits, and scope of access — are not set out in these Terms or in the Privacy Policy, but will be presented and made available to the Visitor at the point of purchase, and shall constitute Additional Terms within the meaning of Section 1.2. By completing a purchase, the Visitor accepts such Additional Terms in addition to these GTC. In the event of a conflict between such Additional Terms and these GTC, the Additional Terms shall prevail with respect to that Subscription.
5.4 When you fill out a contact form available on the Website in order to contact Yatzo, your consent may be requested to receive a newsletter from Yatzo. The newsletter will only be sent with your explicit consent. After entering your email you will receive a confirmation email to the specified email address. The newsletter will only be sent after explicit confirmation by clicking on a link provided in the confirmation email (so-called double opt-in). With the newsletter registration form, data are stored. Besides the visible form fields such as email address, first name and last name, the time of registration and the current language are also saved. We need this information to address you personally and to send the newsletter in the correct language. Please note that you can unsubscribe from this newsletter at any time by clicking on the corresponding link in the body of the newsletter email you may receive.
5.5 By clicking on the links (including banners) on this Website, you may leave it and go, under your own responsibility, to sites of third parties outside the control of Yatzo. Since Yatzo does not necessarily carry out an exhaustive verification of all sites linked by a hypertext link, it declines any responsibility as to the contents, products, services or offers diffused there. The elements contained on linked sites are provided only for your convenience and information, and may be subject to the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the relevant third parties.

6.6 You may close your Account at any time by contacting Yatzo at info@yatzo.com. Closing your Account does not relieve you of any obligation accrued before closure (including any amount due under a Subscription), and those provisions of these Terms which by their nature are intended to survive termination shall continue to apply in accordance with Section 9.4.
7.1 Yatzo commits itself to make sure its computer systems and other software over which it has control are up to date in terms of safety.

Sections of these Terms which by their nature are intended to survive termination — including, without limitation, Sections 12 (Intellectual Property Rights), 14 (Liability Limitation), 15 (Indemnification) and 20 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction) — shall so survive.
