3. Purpose and activities
Athletic Carnivore publishes information, educational and analytical content about nutrition, carnivore, low-carb and ketogenic diets, performance, endurance, recovery, sport and neuroprofiling. The website may also provide consultations, questionnaires, personalized reports, digital products and services, paid content, customer areas, intermediation services and, when enabled, a marketplace for third-party sellers.
Published information may change as knowledge, editorial content, user characteristics and services evolve.
4. Nutrition and health information
Content, questionnaires, reports, automated tools and exchanges available on the website are provided for informational, educational or support purposes. They do not, by themselves, constitute a medical diagnosis, medical prescription, emergency care or a guarantee of individual results.
Users remain responsible for the information they provide and for how they use content and recommendations. Personal data capable of revealing health information benefits from the enhanced protection provided by the GDPR.
5. Intellectual property
The website structure, texts, articles, guides, reports, questionnaires, knowledge bases, trademarks, logos, visuals, photographs, illustrations, videos, graphical elements, interfaces, files, editorial methods and original content are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
Unless prior written authorization or a statutory exception applies, any reproduction, extraction, representation, adaptation, translation, distribution, republication, commercial indexing, training of automated systems on protected content, or substantial reuse, in whole or in part, is prohibited.
Third-party trademarks, content and visuals remain the property of their respective owners and are used within the scope of applicable rights, authorizations, licences or exceptions.
6. Liability and availability
Athletic Carnivore endeavours to publish accurate information and keep the website accessible and secure, but does not guarantee complete freedom from errors, interruptions, failures, data loss, temporary unavailability or inaccurate third-party content.
The publisher’s liability cannot be excluded beyond what applicable law permits. Nothing on this page limits any liability that cannot legally be excluded, particularly in relation to consumers.
External links are provided for convenience. Athletic Carnivore does not continuously control third-party websites, content or policies.
7. Marketplace and third-party sellers
When the Athletic Carnivore marketplace is enabled, it may connect consumers with third-party sellers or service providers. Product pages, checkout and applicable terms must clearly identify the seller, professional status, key characteristics of the goods or services, price, fees, delivery, guarantees and the parties’ respective responsibilities.
Athletic Carnivore may receive a commission or other remuneration for intermediation. Any commercial relationship capable of influencing listing or ranking must be disclosed fairly, clearly and transparently.

9. Cookies and trackers
The website may use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage and other technical identifiers for essential operation, security, login, payment, preferences, analytics, advertising or third-party services.

10. Security and confidentiality
Athletic Carnivore implements technical and organisational measures proportionate to risk, including access control, limited permissions, account protection, backups, updates, logging, secure exchanges and data minimisation where possible.
No system can provide absolute security. Data breaches are handled under GDPR Articles 33 and 34 where applicable.

12. Applicable law and disputes
Subject to mandatory rules protecting consumers, the website and relations with Athletic Carnivore are governed by French law for services offered to French and European audiences where that law applies.
