GLOBAL AFFLUENCE proposes on the Site hypertext links towards third party sites. These links are established according to the interest of the contents proposed by these sites, at the time when the links were created. However, these third sites being by nature independent of GLOBAL AFFLUENCE, they can evolve then without notice and GLOBAL AFFLUENCE cannot thus guarantee the perenniality of the accessible contents by these links with the wire of time.

Any Visitor observing a link present on the Site and leading to content that seems obsolete or inappropriate is invited to report it via the contact page. GLOBAL AFFLUENCE assumes no responsibility for the information published on these sites and the hypertext links thus provided do not imply any guarantee concerning the content of these sites.
