Please read these Terms and Conditions carefully before using the AnnecyMTB website. By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. About the Site

AnnecyMTB is an informational website covering mountain biking trails and riding areas in and around Annecy, Haute-Savoie, France. The Site is intended to help riders plan their visits, discover routes, and find relevant gear and services.

The Site is bilingual, offering content in both English and French. In the event of any inconsistency between the two versions, the English version shall take precedence.

2. Use of the Site

You may use the Site for personal, non-commercial purposes only. You agree not to copy or redistribute content from the Site without our written permission, use the Site in any way that violates applicable laws, attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Site or its systems, use automated tools to scrape or harvest content without permission, or post any content that is unlawful, harmful, or misleading.

3. Trail Information and Safety

The trail information, maps, difficulty ratings, and route descriptions on the Site are provided for general guidance only. Mountain biking carries inherent risks, including serious injury or death.

You are solely responsible for your own safety when riding. Before going out, you should assess your own fitness and skill level honestly, check current trail conditions with local sources as these can change rapidly, carry appropriate safety equipment including a helmet, let someone know your planned route and expected return time, and check local weather forecasts.

Trail conditions, signage, access permissions, and difficulty levels can change without notice. We make no guarantee that the information on the Site is current, complete, or accurate. Always verify trail access and conditions locally before riding.

The Site accepts no liability for any injury, loss, or damage arising from reliance on information published here.

4. Intellectual Property

All content on the Site, including text, images, graphics, icons, and trail descriptions, is owned by or licensed to AnnecyMTB unless otherwise stated. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from this content without our express written permission.

Where content from third parties is used, appropriate credit and attribution is given. If you believe any content on the Site infringes your intellectual property rights, please contact us and we will respond promptly.

5. Affiliate Links and Commercial Relationships

The Site participates in affiliate programmes with third-party retailers and platforms. This means we may earn a commission if you click on a link and make a purchase. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content or recommendations, and we only link to products and services we consider relevant and useful to riders.

Any sponsored content or paid partnerships will be clearly labelled as such.

6. Third-Party Links

The Site contains links to external websites, including trail databases, gear retailers, and local services. These links are provided for convenience only. We have no control over the content or availability of those sites and accept no responsibility for them. Linking to an external site does not imply endorsement of its content, products, or operators.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Site and its content are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without any warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted or error-free.

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, AnnecyMTB and its operator shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Site or reliance on any information published on it, including personal injury, property damage, or loss of revenue.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for any other matter where exclusion of liability is not permitted by law.

9. User-Generated Content

If the Site allows you to submit comments or other content, you retain ownership of that content but grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to use and display it in connection with the Site. You are responsible for any content you submit, and we reserve the right to remove anything we consider inappropriate or in breach of these Terms.

10. Changes to the Site and These Terms

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Site at any time without notice. We may also update these Terms from time to time, with changes posted on this page with a revised date. Continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

11. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of France. Any disputes arising from your use of the Site shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of France, unless otherwise required by applicable consumer protection laws in your country of residence.
