Privacy and cookie policy.

The use of my website is always accompanied by some rights and obligations as stipulated in this Disclaimer, Conditions of Sale, the Privacy & Cookie Statement and all other rights and obligations clearly stated on the website. The whole of these texts are my General Terms and Conditions. These Terms and Conditions apply both to me, roelestievenartyoga, and to you, the User. Once you use my website, you expressly acknowledge and accept that my Terms and Conditions are always and exclusively applicable. I may deviate from these Terms and Conditions in exceptional cases, provided that these deviations are accepted by all parties and recorded in writing. Such deviations shall only replace or supplement the clauses to which they relate and shall have no effect on the application of all other provisions of these General Terms and Conditions.

Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions or comments.

02. | My website

02.1 | Proper functioning, security and accessibility

Rest assured, I provide a user-friendly website that is safe for every user. I take all reasonable measures to ensure the proper functioning, security and accessibility of my website. However, I cannot give you absolute guarantees and my measures must be regarded as a best-efforts obligation. Any use of the website is at your own risk. This means that I assume no liability for damages resulting from malfunctions, interruptions, harmful elements or defects on the website, regardless of the existence of force majeure or an extraneous cause. I am entitled to restrict and/or interrupt access to my website in whole or in part at any time, even without prior warning. In principle, I will only do so if circumstances warrant, but this is not an absolute condition.

02.2 | Content on my website

The content of my website is largely determined by me. I take the greatest care with the information on the website. This means that I take the necessary measures to keep my website as complete, accurate and up-to-date as possible, even if the information is provided by third parties. I may therefore change, supplement or delete my website and its content at any time. However, I cannot guarantee the quality of information on my website. Therefore, the information may not be complete, sufficiently accurate and/or useful. Consequently, I am not liable for (direct and indirect) damage suffered by the user as a result of the information on my website.

If certain content on my website violates applicable laws and/or infringes the rights of third parties and/or is simply unacceptable, I ask you to notify me as soon as possible so that I can take appropriate action. For example, I may proceed with partial or total removal of the information. My website contains content that can be downloaded. Any downloading from my website is always done at your own risk. I cannot be held liable for this and any damage resulting from a loss of data or damage to the computer system is the sole and exclusive responsibility of the user.

It may be clear, my website is entirely focused on user-friendliness. I certainly appreciate any help to improve my website and even explicitly ask you to forward all comments, questions and tips to roelestievenartyoga@gmail.com.

02.3 | What I expect of you as a User

Users also bear some responsibility with regard to the way I provide my website. This means that you must at all times refrain from actions that have a harmful impact on the proper functioning and security of the website and its use. For example, the website must not be used to circumvent my business model and/or used to collect information from other users on a large scale.

Consequently, it is advised not to use my website to distribute content that may cause harm to other users of the website, such as the distribution of harmful software such as computer viruses, malware, worms, trojans and cancelbots. This also includes the dissemination of unsolicited and/or commercial messages via the website, such as junk mail, spamming and chain letters. I reserve the right to take all necessary actions that may produce recovery for me and my users, both judicial and extrajudicial. The user is solely personally and entirely responsible if his actions and behaviour effectively cause damage to the website and the other users. In that case, he must indemnify roelestievenartyoga against any claim for damages that follows.

03. | Links to other websites

The content of my website may contain a link, hyperlink or framed link to foreign websites or other forms of electronic portals. A link does not automatically mean that there is a link between me and the foreign website, nor that I (implicitly) agree with the content of these websites. I do not control these foreign websites and are not responsible for the safe and correct operation of the link and its final destination. Once one clicks on the link, one leaves my website and cannot hold me liable for any damages. These foreign websites do not offer the same guarantees as I do, so I recommend that you read carefully the Terms and Conditions and Privacy Statement of these other websites.

04. | Intellectual property

Creativity deserves protection, and so does my website and its content. The protection is provided by intellectual property rights and belongs to all entitled parties, being Roel Estievenart (roelestievenartyoga) and third parties. Content means the very broad category of photos, video, audio, text, ideas, notes, drawings, articles, et cetera. All this content is protected by copyright, software law, database law, design law and other applicable (intellectual) property rights. The technical nature of my website itself is protected by copyright, software law and database law. Any trade name I use on my websites is also protected by applicable trade name law or trademark law.

Each User is granted a limited right of access, use and display of my websites and its content. This granted right is non-exclusive, non-transferable and can only be used within a personal, non-commercial framework. I therefore ask my Users not to use and/or modify the intellectual property rights described in this article without the consent of the rights holder. Roelestievenartyoga attaches great importance to its intellectual property rights and has taken all possible measures to ensure their protection. My products and trade names are protected by numerous registrations with the competent official bodies in the form of trademark registrations, patents and registrations of drawings and models. Any infringement of existing intellectual property rights will be prosecuted.

05. | Processing personal data

For usage analysis of my website, I use Google Analytics. Through these cookies, roelestievenartyoga gets info on, among other things, the number of unique visitors, visitor sessions, visitors' use of the website and through which channel those same visitors arrived at roelestievenartyoga. Google Analytics then provides an analysis report.

Only the personal data necessary to fulfil a certain part of my service or to forward information (e.g. sign up to livestream) to you are collected.

This may include:

  • Full name

  • Address

  • Telephone number

  • E-mail address

In forms, some information is mandatory (usually marked with an *). This information is necessary to provide you with the service you require. Other information (without *) may be useful, but is not absolutely necessary. You choose whether to fill in the data there or not.

Your personal data will be used for a specific purpose (and only for that purpose) with the following legal grounds:

  • Contact form: to fulfil your request, provide a response (execution of order).

  • Newsletter subscription: to occasionally send you a newsletter with offers or information that may interest you (consent data subject).

  • Livestream form: to send you the access link to the livestream prior to going live. 

  • Application form: to be able to contact you after reviewing your answers to the questions for working with me privately.

  • Purchase form: to be able to process your purchase, deliver the desired products and show you other products that may interest you (execute order and legitimate interest).

An exception to this can only be made with your explicit consent.

06. | General terms and conditions

I reserve the freedom to modify, expand, limit or discontinue my website and related services at any time. This may be done without prior notice to the User and shall not give rise to any form of compensation.

In addition, if I establish a violation of our general terms and conditions by the User, I are entitled to take all possible measures for sanction and remedy. For example, I can always remove or modify all or part of your content and deny you access to the website and User Profile. I may do so without prior notice. Such measures can never lead to my liability or to any form of compensation. These Terms and Conditions (including the Conditions of Sale) shall be exclusively governed and interpreted in accordance with Belgian Law. All disputes related to or arising from offers made by roelestievenartyoga, or agreements concluded with it, shall be submitted to the competent court from the judicial district of Limburg.

Should the operation or validity of one or more of the above provisions of these general terms and conditions be affected, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this agreement. In such case, I shall be entitled to amend the provision in question into a valid provision of similar purport. The titles I use in my legal documents are always purely illustrative. You cannot therefore derive any legal value from them.
