Reason for changes

Alignment of the Terms of Service with new obligations arising from the Digital Services Act (DSA — applicable since 17 February 2024), the European Accessibility Act (EAA — applicable since 28 June 2025), and supplementing the legal bases for personal data processing under the GDPR. The changes are clarifying in nature — they do not limit user rights.
