Last Updated: March 17, 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to i-discover.net ('the Site'), operated by Flutteris, a company based in Belgium. These Terms of Service ('Terms') govern your access to and use of the Site, as well as any related services and functionalities provided through the Site under the brand 'i-discover.' By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you disagree with any part of these Terms, you may not use or access the Site.
2. Scope of Services
The Site serves primarily as an informational ('vitrine') website that:
- Presents the i-discover solution, an application-based service leveraging Large Language Model (LLM) technologies to provide information or answers about museums, galleries, and other institutions.
- Provides a contact form allowing visitors to reach out for inquiries about the solution.
- Allows users (anonymously) to select their preferred interface language, stored via cookies.
- Contains promotional materials for the i-discover application, which is downloadable through third-party platforms (Google Play, Apple App Store), but not directly from this Site.
These Terms apply to your use of the Site's functionalities (including the contact form and language preference features). Use of the i-discover mobile application may be governed by separate terms or end-user license agreements presented within the app or its respective distribution platforms.
3. Data Collection and Privacy
1. Contact Form:
- The Site offers a contact form for visitors to provide:
- Name
- Email address
- Reason for the contact request
- (Indirectly) the user's language preference (if applicable)
- By submitting the form, you consent to the collection and processing of this information. The data is stored on our server (including a database) and used solely to respond to and manage your inquiry.
2. Cookies:
- The Site uses cookies to store your selected language or to manage basic session information. You can configure your browser to block or remove cookies, but this may affect certain functionalities of the Site.
3. Server Logs:
- Standard technical logs (e.g., Nginx server logs) may be collected automatically. These logs are not actively exploited or processed beyond normal maintenance and security monitoring.
4. Anonymized Question Logs (LLM Usage):
- For users of the i-discover solution (e.g., within the app context), questions posed to the LLM may be recorded in anonymized form to improve our services and analyze performance. This does not apply to mere browsing of the Site but may be relevant when interacting with the solution itself.
Please note that all personal data is handled in compliance with applicable data protection laws, including the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). For further information on how we handle your data, please consult our separate Privacy Policy (if available) or contact us at the email address provided below.
4. Use License
1. Grant of License:
- Permission is granted to temporarily download one copy of the materials on the Site for personal, non-commercial transitory viewing only. This is the grant of a license, not a transfer of title.

- Modify or copy the materials except as strictly necessary for your personal, non-commercial viewing.
- Use the materials for any commercial purpose or public display without prior written consent.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer any software contained on or accessible through the Site.

2. LLM Responses:
- The i-discover solution relies on Large Language Model (LLM) technology to provide responses.
