The content of the Site, its general structure, as well as the software, texts, images (animated or otherwise), photographs, know-how and all other elements making up the Site are the exclusive property of the Firm or of third parties who have granted it a license.
All elements of the Site are protected by copyright, trademark law, designs and models law and/or any other intellectual property rights.
No title or right whatsoever in any element or software shall be obtained by downloading or copying elements of this Site. The Internet User is expressly prohibited from reproducing (other than for personal, non-commercial use), publishing, editing, transmitting, distributing, displaying, removing, deleting or adding to this Site and the materials and software it contains, or from modifying them or performing any work based on them, or from selling or participating in any sale relating to this Site, the materials on this Site or any related software.
In particular, the Internet User shall refrain from modifying, copying, reproducing, downloading, broadcasting, transmitting, commercially exploiting and/or distributing in any way whatsoever the pages of the Site or the computer codes of the elements making up the Site.
These GTCU do not imply any transfer of intellectual property rights of any kind whatsoever on the elements belonging to the Firm or its assignees, such as sounds, photographs, images, literary texts, artistic works, software, trademarks, graphic charters and logos.
The Firm grants the Internet User a non-exclusive license to use the Site. This license is strictly personal and may not under any circumstances be assigned or transferred to any third party whatsoever. The license is granted for the duration of use of the Site.
Any reproduction and/or representation, in whole or in part, of any of these rights, without the express authorization of the Firm, is prohibited and would constitute infringement likely to engage the civil and criminal liability of the infringer, pursuant to Articles L. 335-2 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code.
Consequently, the Internet User shall refrain from any act likely to infringe directly or indirectly the intellectual property rights of the Firm.
The same applies to any databases that may appear on the Site, which are protected by Articles L. 341-1 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code. Any extraction or reuse, in whole or in part, of said databases and their content is therefore prohibited without the express prior authorization of the Firm.

Any other use, not expressly authorized in writing and in advance by the Firm, is prohibited and constitutes infringement.
B. Third-Party Intellectual Property
Elements belonging to third parties, such as film extracts, trademarks, logos, images, texts and sounds, without this list being exhaustive, are the exclusive property of their author and are protected as such by copyright, trademark law or any other right recognized by the laws in force.

The Internet User undertakes to respect all the rights of third parties whose content is present on the Site.

The Internet User is invited to consult the GTCU regularly to be aware of any amendments.
14. Tolerance
The Internet User agrees that the fact that the Firm tolerates a situation does not have the effect of granting the Internet User any acquired rights.

In the event of difficulties of interpretation resulting from a contradiction between any of the headings appearing at the top of the clauses and any of the clauses, the headings shall be declared non-existent.
16. Invalidity
