The Website provides legal and practical information relating to the Firm.

2. Acceptance and modification of the General Terms and Conditions

Access to the Site implies application of the stipulations and conditions defined herein.

Any person who does not wish to accept these Terms and Conditions must therefore refrain from using the Site.

These Terms and Conditions are subject to change, and the Company reserves the right to modify them at any time. The General Conditions in force are those accessible on the Site under the heading "General Conditions of Use" each time a User connects to the Site.

In the event of modification or updating, the revised General Terms and Conditions of Use will be posted on the Site with an indication of the last update date. The User must therefore check the Site regularly to remain informed of any changes or updates to the Site's General Conditions of Use.

3. Intellectual property

All elements of the Company's website - in particular: its structure, content, information presented therein, illustrations, photographs, images, sounds and videos, articles, newsletters, presentations, brochures, computer programs - are protected by intellectual property rights and belong exclusively to the Company.

Protected works reproduced on the Site and not belonging to the Company have been the subject of express prior authorization for reproduction by the holder of the rights.

The Company grants Users who access the Site a personal, non-exclusive right to use the Site and its contents. Consequently, Users undertake to respect the intellectual property rights relating to the Site and its component parts and, in particular, not to, without the prior written consent of the Company :

  • reproduce, represent, modify, alter, translate, adapt, redistribute without the prior authorization of the Company, any element contained in or relating to the Site;
  • divert or make commercial use of the Site and/or Services by offering them to third parties, without first seeking the express consent of theᅠSociété ;
  • extract, reuse, store, reproduce, represent or retain, directly or indirectly, on any medium whatsoever, by any means and in any form whatsoever, all or any qualitatively or quantitatively substantial part of the Site, as well as to carry out repeated and systematic extraction or reuse of qualitatively and quantitatively insubstantial parts when such operations manifestly exceed the conditions of normal use of the Site.

Any act mentioned above without the express authorization of the Company is therefore prohibited and would constitute an infringement punishable by articles L.335-2 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code.

In particular, the trademarks and logos (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Trademarks") reproduced on the Site are registered or unregistered Trademarks belonging exclusively to the Company. Nothing on the Site should be construed as an invitation or implied authorization to use the Trademarks published on the Site. Any use requires the prior written consent of the Company.

The news flashes and articles published on the Site or in the newsletter are protected by copyright and may also constitute a database within the meaning of the French Intellectual Property Code, any unauthorized extraction of which is strictly prohibited.

However, as an exception to the preceding paragraphs, the Company authorizes Users to download for their personal use newsletters or other documents owned by the Firm that are made available to Users in the form of electronic files specifically for this purpose.

In this case, and unless otherwise expressly indicated in writing by the Company, the User will be authorized to keep a copy of these documents, to print them and to share them with third parties, free of charge, for their personal use only, subject to not making any modifications to them.

The User may make a short quotation from the content of these documents, provided that the title of the document, where applicable the page or publication number, the name of the Company and, where applicable, the name of the author of the document appear.

4. Hypertext

The Site may also enable Users to access, via hypertext links placed in the various sections, services published and provided by third parties (hereinafter referred to as the "Third-Party Services").

The Third-Party Services are offered independently by the partners, advertisers or third-party publishers of these services, under their sole responsibility. Consequently, the Company cannot be held responsible for the content of Third-Party Services accessible via links appearing on the Site, nor for all offers, information consulted or transactions carried out on these Third-Party Services; the publishers of the Third-Party Services alone are engaged in a contractual relationship with the User.

Consequently, any User accessing Third-Party Services via the Site will be subject exclusively to the specific conditions of use and/or sale of said Third-Party Services. The Company will not provide any service or guarantee in respect of the Third-Party Services used by Users. Consequently, the Company declines all responsibility in the event that the contents of Third-Party Services contravene the legal and regulatory provisions in force.

In addition, the Company ensures that the Site does not contain any hypertext links providing direct or indirect access to sites or pages of sites whose content is contrary to the ethical principles of the legal profession. Should the Site prove to be contrary to the essential principles of the profession, the Company will immediately take all necessary steps to remove them. However, the Company shall not be held liable beyond this ethical obligation.

The data, information and documents provided by the Company on the Site are intended to provide general information about the Company, the services it offers its clients, and the legal profession, and may under no circumstances be considered as constituting legal or professional advice, canvassing, solicitation and/or an offer of services. Accordingly, the Company does not warrant that the content of this Website reflects the latest legal or commercial developments in the field, nor that it is accurate, complete, up-to-date or free from errors and/or omissions.

Nor shall the Firm be liable to Users for any damage resulting from fraudulent intrusion by a third party leading to modification of the information published on the Site.

5.2 The User

Each User declares, acknowledges and guarantees that he/she will only use the Services and/or the Site in strict compliance with the regulations applicable to his/her activities and that he/she will not include in the Site any element that contravenes the laws and regulations in force.

Consequently, each User guarantees the Company against any legal or administrative action, claim, demand or opposition from any administration, or from any natural or legal person invoking an infringement of legal and/or regulatory provisions, a prejudice, an infringement, a right and/or a violation of such a right of which the User's activity via the Site is directly or indirectly at the origin. In this case, the User shall bear all the financial consequences resulting from this, and in particular legal fees, the amount of any sentences pronounced in the context of a court decision, as well as compensation and expenses of any kind incurred by the Company.

6. Effect hereof

Should any provision of these General Terms and Conditions be declared null and void or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be deemed unwritten and all other provisions of the General Terms and Conditions shall remain in full force and effect unless its unenforceability materially affects the balance of the General Terms and Conditions.

The Company shall replace the stipulation declared null or inapplicable by a valid and enforceable clause having as far as possible the same effect as that which the stipulation declared null or inapplicable should have had.

The headings of the articles inserted in the General Terms and Conditions are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of the General Terms and Conditions.

7. Applicable law and jurisdiction

These General Terms and Conditions are expressly governed by French law. Any dispute relating to the use of the Site and the Services by Users, relating to the said General Terms and Conditions, their interpretation or their execution, in the absence of an amicable agreement reached following the occurrence of such a dispute, shall fall within the exclusive jurisdiction of the Commercial Court of Paris, notwithstanding plurality of defendants or the introduction of third parties, even for conservatory proceedings, in summary proceedings or by petition.
