Terms and conditions of use: User
Version of 03/01/2022
Welcome to EVELITY !
The EVELITY application, developed by OKEENEA, helps disabled and valid people in complex everyday situations by means of a step-by-step guidance system similar to a pedestrian GPS.
We wanted to create an application that would allow all people to be guided, step by step, to the destination of their choice, according to their profile and their abilities.
Before the existence of our application, it was very difficult for people with disabilities to get to a complex building or transport network independently. The difficulties they encountered were related to problems of location and orientation.
Our application is adapted to all types of disabilities, and useful to all!
NB: ANY USE OF THE APPLICATION FOR ANY PURPOSE WHATSOEVER IMPLIES UNRESERVED ACCEPTANCE BY THE USER OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE (TCU).

Any dispute arising between a User and a Partner, or between a User and a rightful claimant on a third-party Content shall be dealt with between them, the Partner remaining solely responsible for the accuracy of the information individually provided by him on the Application.
ARTICLE 8. FORCE MAJEURE
OKEENEA's responsibility cannot be implemented if the non-execution or the delay in the execution of one of its obligations described in the present TCU results from a case of force majeure as defined by the jurisprudence of the French courts.
Force majeure occurs in contractual matters when an event beyond the control of the debtor, which could not be reasonably foreseen at the time of the conclusion of the contract and the effects of which cannot be avoided by appropriate measures, prevents the debtor from performing its obligation.
If the impediment is temporary, performance of the obligation is suspended unless the resulting delay justifies termination of the contract. If the impediment is definitive, the contract is automatically terminated and the parties are released from their obligations under the conditions provided for in Articles 1351 and 1351-1 of the Civil Code.
