   This section 7 sets out provisions, processes and disclosures that supplement the rest of this Agreement, as required under the DSA, which regulates the provision of certain digital intermediary services provided in the EU and notably sets out rules on the role of providers and imposes content moderation requirements and transparency obligations. These provisions only apply to you if you are in the EU and / or if you are using the Site or Services falling within the scope of the DSA. In the event of any conflict between the terms set out in this section and the other provisions of this Agreement, the terms of this section 7 shall prevail.
