The UdL shall not accept any liability for the contents, services or products of third parties which can be accessed directly through banners, links, hyperlinks, network or similar from the websites of the UdL, since their inclusion is forbidden without the prior, express and written consent of the UdL.

The UdL reserves the right to make changes to the website, provided that they do not affect the personal data of the users, without prior notice, for the purpose of maintaining its information up to date, adding, modifying, correcting or deleting the contents posted or the design of the portal.

Intellectual and industrial property

The contents provided by the UdL, in addition to the contents transferred to the Internet through its websites, become a work in the sense of the legislation on intellectual property, and therefore they are protected by the laws and international conventions applicable on this subject.

Any form of reproduction, distribution, public communication, transformation, making available and, in general, any other act of public exploitation referring both to the websites and to their contents and information, is forbidden without the prior express and written consent of the UdL.

The following acts are forbidden: reproduction, distribution, display, transmission, retransmission, broadcast in any form, storage on hardware or software (for example diskettes or computer hard disks), digitization or making available from databases other than those belonging to those authorized by the UdL, in addition to their translation, adaptation, change or any other transformation of these opinions, images, forms, indices and other formal expressions which are made available to the users through the services or contents, when the acts are subject to the applicable legislation in relation to intellectual and industrial property or protection of the image.

Consequently, all the contents which are shown on the different websites mentioned, and especially the designs, texts, graphics, logos, icons, buttons, software, trade names, trademarks, industrial drawings or any other sign subject to industrial and commercial use, are subject to the intellectual and industrial property rights of the UdL, or of third parties owning these rights which have duly authorized the inclusion on the different websites through Creative Commons CC BY.4.0 licences and/or those characteristic of the assigning source, subject to their conditions of use.

The contents, images, forms, opinions, indices and other formal expressions which form part of the websites, in addition to the software necessary for their operation and viewing, also become a work in the sense of copyright and are, therefore, protected by the international conventions and national legislation on intellectual property which are applicable to them.

Any act is forbidden by means of which the users of the services or contents can exploit or make a commercial use, either directly or indirectly, totally or partially, of any of the contents, images, forms, indices and other formal expressions which form part of the websites of the UdL, without prior and written permission from the UdL.
