03Nature of the Service and use of artificial intelligence systems
3.1. Nature and functionalities of the Service
Libertos is a digital information service that facilitates Users' access to information of interest by identifying, selecting, aggregating, analysing, synthesising, structuring and presenting information originating from external sources.
Depending on the functionalities available, the User may configure their fields and topics of interest, geographical area, language, the frequency of Briefings and other relevant preferences, for the purpose of being provided with an information feed adapted to their choices.
The Service uses automated technologies and artificial intelligence systems to carry out these operations and to generate or synthesise the content presented through the Platform.
Libertos is not a source publication for all of the information presented through the Platform. Where information is based on material originating from third parties, the relevant sources may be indicated within the Platform so as to allow the User to consult the original material.
3.2. The role of artificial intelligence systems
In order to provide and improve the Service, Libertos also uses systems, models and other technologies based on artificial intelligence (“AI Systems”), including, where applicable, solutions supplied or operated by specialised third-party providers.
Depending on the characteristics and functionalities of the Service, the AI Systems may be used, in whole or in part, for:
- a) identifying and selecting relevant information;
- b) aggregating and grouping information relating to the same event or topic;
- c) analysing and comparing information originating from several sources;
- d) synthesising, summarising, rephrasing and structuring information;
- e) identifying differences, perspectives or common elements between reports originating from different sources;
- f) classifying and prioritising information;
- g) generating or assisting in the generation of Briefings;
- h) personalising content according to the preferences and criteria relevant to the User; and
- i) other technical operations necessary for providing the functionalities of the Platform, within the limits and under the conditions laid down by the applicable legislation.
The use of AI Systems is a technological component of the Service, for the selection of informative material. It does not alter the informative nature of the content provided and does not turn the information available through Libertos into legal, financial, tax, medical or investment advice or into any other form of professional advice.
3.3. Sources used
The information processed and presented through Libertos may originate from press publications, press agencies, official releases and official pages, websites, databases, public sources and other external sources relevant to the provision of the Service.
Libertos may use technical, automated and/or editorial mechanisms for selecting, comparing, classifying and verifying the information and the sources used.
However, Libertos does not in all situations control the content published by third parties and does not guarantee that the information contained in external sources is at all times complete, accurate, up to date or free of errors.
The indication, use or inclusion of a source within the Platform does not imply that Libertos is affiliated with that source, nor that Libertos approves or endorses all of the opinions, statements or information published by it.
Libertos does not guarantee that all of the information or all of the sources existing in relation to a particular event or topic will be identified, analysed or included in a Briefing.
3.4. Quality of the information and limitations of the AI Systems
Libertos makes reasonable efforts to ensure that the information provided through the Service is relevant, useful and referenced to the sources identified.
The User understands that the AI Systems, by the nature of the technology used, may generate incomplete or inaccurate results and may interpret, synthesise, classify or contextualise certain information incorrectly. In particular, content generated or processed with the help of the AI Systems may contain errors, omissions, inconsistencies, inaccurate interpretations or information that is no longer current, including where such deficiencies originate from the external sources used.
Libertos may use, depending on the nature of the Service and the risks identified, technical and automated measures and/or human intervention intended to improve the quality, relevance, accuracy and traceability of the information provided. Nevertheless, Libertos does not guarantee the exhaustiveness or the absolute absence of errors in the content generated, synthesised or processed with the help of the AI Systems.
This clause does not exclude or limit the Operator's obligations regarding the provision and conformity of the Service, nor any other rights of the User which cannot be excluded or limited under the applicable legislation.
For information that may form the basis of decisions with legal, financial, medical, professional or other significant consequences, the User must consult the relevant original sources and, where appropriate, seek the opinion of a qualified professional.
3.5. Personalisation of content
Where personalised functionalities are used, Libertos uses AI Systems and/or other automated systems to select, order and present the information considered relevant to the User.
Personalisation may take into account, as applicable, information such as the fields and topics of interest selected, the preferences expressed within the Platform, the language, the geographical area, the frequency of Briefings and other criteria relevant to the provision of the Service.
Consequently, two Users may receive different Briefings or selections of information, even if these are generated in the same period, since they are based on the fields selected differently by those same Users.
The personalisation of content does not guarantee that all of the information that might be of interest to the User will be identified or included, nor that the order in which the information is presented reflects its objective importance.
3.6. Personal data in the context of the use of AI Systems
In so far as the operation of the AI Systems involves the processing of Users' personal data, such processing is carried out in accordance with the applicable legislation on the protection of personal data and with the Libertos Privacy Policy.
Libertos seeks to apply the principle of data minimisation, so that the data used or transmitted in the course of operations carried out through the AI Systems are limited to those that are adequate, relevant and necessary in relation to the specific purpose of the processing.
Depending on the technical architecture and the functionality used, certain information necessary for the personalisation of the Service may be processed with the help of the AI Systems and/or of the technology providers used by Libertos.
The categories of personal data processed, the purposes and legal bases of the processing, the recipients or categories of recipients, the retention period, any international data transfers and the rights of Users are described in the Privacy Policy.
In so far as the User's direct identification data are not necessary for the operation of a particular AI component of the Service, Libertos seeks to avoid transmitting such data to the AI System concerned.
3.7. External providers of AI Systems
Libertos may use AI services and infrastructure supplied by third parties.
In so far as such a provider processes personal data on behalf of Libertos, the relationship with that provider will be managed in accordance with the applicable requirements on the protection of personal data.
The information that must be communicated to Users regarding the recipients of the data, the relevant providers, international transfers and the applicable safeguards will be included in the Privacy Policy, to the extent required by the applicable legislation.
3.8. Use of data for the development or improvement of AI Systems
Users' personal data will not be used by Libertos for the training, development or improvement of artificial intelligence models except in so far as such processing is permitted by the applicable legislation and the requirements regarding the legal basis, transparency, purpose limitation and the other applicable safeguards are met.
Where external providers of AI Systems are used, Libertos will determine, depending on the applicable legal relationship, the conditions under which the data transmitted to them may be processed, including, where relevant, whether such data may be used by the provider for the development or improvement of its own services or models. The information relevant to the User regarding such processing will be presented in the Privacy Policy, under the conditions required by the applicable legislation.
3.9. Automated decisions
Unless the User is expressly informed otherwise, the use of the AI Systems for the personalisation, selection, classification or prioritisation of content serves an informative purpose and is not intended for the adoption of solely automated decisions which produce legal effects concerning the User or similarly significantly affect the User.
Should functionalities be introduced that involve such automated decision-making processes, Libertos will provide the information and ensure the safeguards and rights laid down by the applicable legislation.
3.10. Changes to the technologies used
The technologies, models and providers used for the operation of the AI Systems may be updated, changed or replaced over time, including in order to improve the quality, security, performance or efficiency of the Service.
Libertos does not guarantee the permanent use of a particular model, a particular version of a model or a particular AI technology provider, unless this has been expressly undertaken towards the User.
Where such a change results in a relevant change to the manner in which the Service is provided or to the manner in which personal data are processed, Libertos will update the information provided to Users and will fulfil, as applicable, the information obligations or the other obligations laid down by the applicable legislation.
Libertos informs Users, in a clear and appropriate manner, of the use of the AI Systems for generating, synthesising or processing the content provided through the Platform.
In cases where the applicable legislation requires the identification or labelling of content generated or manipulated with the help of AI Systems, Libertos will ensure the applicable transparency measures, taking into account, among other things, the existence of a human review process or of editorial control and the assumption of editorial responsibility, as applicable.
04Informative purpose. No professional advice
4.1. The Libertos content serves an exclusively informative and general purpose.
4.2. The information provided through the Platform does not constitute and must not be construed as legal, financial, tax, investment or medical advice or any other form of professional advice.

The User is responsible for checking, before accessing or purchasing any Service, including a Subscription, whether the device and configuration used allow the Service to be accessed and used properly.

In situations where tax legislation requires the invoice to be transmitted, reported or made available to the tax authorities through a mandatory electronic system, the Operator will proceed in accordance with the applicable legal requirements.
8.7. Failed or unauthorised payments
Where a payment is refused, cannot be processed, is cancelled or is not duly authorised, the Operator may refrain from activating the corresponding Service or Subscription until the payment has been confirmed.
In the case of a recurring Subscription, if the payment for a new billing period cannot be processed, the Operator may attempt to process the payment again, to the extent permitted by the payment mechanism used, and/or may suspend access to the functionalities of the paid Subscription until the amounts due have been paid.
Any measure taken in this situation will not affect the rights to which the User is mandatorily entitled under the applicable legislation.
09Automatic renewal of the Subscription

9.2. Before contracting, the User will be informed of:

- d) the method of deactivating automatic renewal.
9.3.

9.4. The User may deactivate automatic renewal from the Account, through the function made available for this purpose, or by contacting the Operator at the following e-mail address: [email protected].

In the case of distance contracts, the User has the right to withdraw from the contract within 14 days, without having to justify their decision and without incurring any costs other than those provided for by law. For service contracts, the 14-day period runs from the date of conclusion of the contract.
11.3. Commencement of the provision of the Service during the withdrawal period. At the express request of the User, the provision of the Service may begin before the expiry of the 14-day withdrawal period. If the User exercises their right of withdrawal after the provision has begun, they may owe, under the conditions provided for by law, an amount proportionate to the Services provided up to the time the withdrawal was communicated.
11.4. Full performance of the Service. In the case of a Service for which the User has an obligation to pay, the right of withdrawal is lost after the Service has been fully performed, if performance began with the User's prior express consent and after the User confirmed that they were aware that they would lose their right of withdrawal once the contract had been fully performed, under the conditions provided for by law.
11.5. Digital content not supplied on a tangible medium. In the case of the purchase of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium, the User loses their right of withdrawal once performance of the contract has begun, if they have given their prior express consent to performance beginning during the withdrawal period and have confirmed that they are aware that, by performance beginning, they will lose their right of withdrawal, subject to the other conditions provided for by law.
For this purpose, before the supply of the digital content begins, the User will be asked to give the corresponding consent.
11.6. Exercising the right of withdrawal. In cases where the right of withdrawal applies, it may be exercised before the expiry of the statutory period by sending an unequivocal statement of the decision to withdraw to the e-mail address [email protected] or by any other means made available by the Operator for this purpose.
11.7. Where the right of withdrawal is validly exercised, the Operator will reimburse the amounts due to the User under the conditions and within the time limits laid down by the applicable legislation.

The Platform may be subject to temporary interruptions caused by maintenance, updates, technical problems or other causes which may temporarily affect the availability of the Service.
13.3. Where the Service is not provided or does not conform to the agreed conditions, the User may request that the lack of conformity be remedied, under the conditions of this document and of the applicable legislation. Users who have the status of consumers additionally enjoy all of the rights and remedies mandatorily provided for by consumer protection legislation, including, as applicable, bringing the Service into conformity, a price reduction or termination of the contract.
13.4. The limitations inherent in the AI Systems and in external sources, set out in Article 3, do not remove the Operator's obligation to provide the Service in accordance with the agreed requirements and with the applicable legal provisions.
13.5. No provision of these Terms and Conditions will be construed as excluding or limiting the User's rights regarding the conformity of the Service, in so far as such rights are mandatorily provided for by the applicable legislation. In the case of Users who have the status of consumers, all of the mandatory rights and guarantees provided for by consumer protection legislation remain applicable.

- a serious or repeated breach of these Terms and Conditions;

- the existence of a legal obligation to that effect.

The measure may be ordered without prior notice where it is necessary to prevent or limit fraud, a security incident or abusive or unauthorised use, or where prior notice is prohibited or incompatible with a legal obligation.
