- services, packages and orders published on the chevelless230.com Portal,

The General Terms are publicly available on the Portal and permanently accessible. The Provider reserves the right to amend the General Terms at any time. Amendments become effective on the date of publication unless otherwise stated. By continuing to use the Portal after amendments are published, the user confirms acceptance of such amendments.
