Legal Notice
Nothing in this legal notice actually changed. The only difference is the scrambled code in two "contact us" email links, which the website rotates automatically to hide addresses from spam bots. The wording, your rights, and the "Updated: 19 February 2026" date are all the same.
Cosmetic change: formatting, typos, or contact details.
