General Conditions of Use – Zéro de Conduite Productions

Definitions

The following terms shall be understood as follows:

“Site” or “Service”: the website https://zdcprod.fr/ and all of its pages.

“Publisher”: Zéro de Conduite Productions, the legal entity responsible for publishing and the content of the Site.

“User”: the internet user visiting and using the Site’s Services.

These General Terms of Use (hereinafter “GTU”) are offered by the Site’s Publisher. The User is invited to read these GTU carefully, to print them and/or to save them on a durable medium. The User acknowledges having read the GTU and accepts them fully and without reservation.

Article 1 – Application of the GTU

These GTU define the conditions of access to the Site by Users. The Publisher reserves the right to modify the GTU at any time by publishing a new version on the Site. The GTU applicable to the User are those in effect on the day of acceptance.

The Site is freely and freely accessible to any User. Purchasing a product or service, creating a member account, or more generally browsing the Site implies acceptance by the User of all the present GTU, who acknowledges having full knowledge of them.

This acceptance may, for example, consist of the User ticking the box corresponding to the acceptance phrase for these GTU, such as “I acknowledge having read and accepted all the general conditions of the Site.” Ticking this box will be deemed equivalent to a handwritten signature by the User.

The User acknowledges the evidential value of the Publisher’s automatic recording systems and, unless they provide proof to the contrary, waives the right to contest them in the event of a dispute.

Acceptance of these GTU implies that the User has the necessary legal capacity to do so. If the User is a minor or does not have this capacity, they declare that they have the authorization of a guardian, curator, or legal representative.

The Publisher provides the Client, on its Site, with a privacy policy specifying all information related to the use of the Client’s personal data collected by the Publisher and the rights the Client has regarding this personal data. The privacy policy forms part of the GTU. Acceptance of these GTU therefore implies acceptance of the privacy policy.

Article 2 – Legal notices, personal data, and purpose of the Site

This Site is published by Zéro de Conduite Productions SARL. The legal information concerning the Site’s host and Publisher, including contact details and any information on share capital and registration, is provided in the Site’s legal notices.

Information concerning the collection and processing of personal data (policy and statement) is provided in the Site’s privacy policy.

The purpose of the Site is defined as: “Film production for cinema (5911C)”.

Article 3 – Member area

A User registered on the Site (member) can access it by logging in using their credentials (email address defined at registration and password) or by using third-party social network login buttons. The User is fully responsible for protecting the password they choose and is encouraged to use complex passwords. In case of forgotten password, the User can generate a new one. This password guarantees the confidentiality of the information in their “my account” section, and the User therefore agrees not to share it with any third party. Otherwise, the Site Publisher cannot be held responsible for unauthorized access to a User’s account.

Creating a personal account is a prerequisite for any order or contribution by the User on the Site. For this purpose, the User will be asked to provide certain personal information, which they agree to provide accurately.

The purpose of data collection is to create a “member account.” If the data in the member account section were to disappear due to a technical failure or force majeure, the responsibility of the Site and its Publisher could not be engaged, as this information has no probative value but only an informative character. The member account pages can be freely printed by the account holder but do not constitute evidence; they are purely informative to ensure effective service management.

Each User is free to close their account and data on the Site. To do so, they must send an email to Zéro de Conduite Productions requesting account deletion. Data recovery will then no longer be possible.

The Publisher reserves the right to delete any User account that has violated these GTU (including, but not limited to, knowingly providing false information at registration) or any inactive account for at least one year. Such deletion shall not constitute damage to the excluded User, who may not claim any compensation. This exclusion does not prevent the Publisher from taking legal action against the User if justified.

Article 4 – Access and availability of the Site

The Publisher makes every effort to keep the Site accessible at all times, subject to maintenance operations on the Site or the servers on which it is hosted. In case of inability to access the Site due to technical problems or any other reason, the User may not claim any damages or compensation.

The Publisher is bound only by an obligation of means; it cannot be held responsible for damages resulting from the use of the Internet such as loss of data, intrusion, viruses, service disruption, or other.

The User expressly acknowledges using the Site at their own risk and under their sole responsibility.

The Site provides information to the User for indicative purposes, with possible imperfections, errors, omissions, inaccuracies, or ambiguities. In any event, Zéro de Conduite Productions can in no way be held responsible:

for any direct or indirect damage, in particular regarding loss of profits, loss of business, loss of customers, or data, which may result from the use of the Site or the inability to use it;
for malfunction, unavailability, misconfiguration, or misuse of the User’s computer, or for the use of a little-used browser by the User.

Article 5 – Hyperlinks

The Site may include hyperlinks to other websites.

The User acknowledges that the Publisher cannot be held responsible for any proven or alleged damages resulting from or related to the use of or reliance on the content, advertising, products, or services available on these sites or external sources. Likewise, the Publisher cannot be held responsible if visiting one of these sites causes harm to the User.

If, despite the Publisher’s efforts, one of the hyperlinks on the Site points to a website or internet source whose content does not comply with French law, the User agrees to immediately contact the Site’s Publication Director (contact details in the legal notices) to provide the address of the offending pages.

Article 6 – Cookies

A “Cookie” may allow the identification of the Site’s User, personalization of their browsing experience, and faster loading of the Site by storing a data file on their computer. The Site may use Cookies mainly to:

obtain browsing statistics to improve the User experience;
allow access to a member account and to content not accessible without login.

The User acknowledges being informed of this practice and authorizes the Publisher to use it. The Publisher undertakes never to communicate the content of these Cookies to third parties, except in the case of a legal requisition.

The User may refuse the storage of Cookies or configure their browser to be notified before accepting them.

Article 7 – Intellectual property rights

All elements on this Site belong to the Publisher or a third-party agent or are used by the Publisher with permission.

Any representation, reproduction, or adaptation of logos, text content, pictorial or video material, without limitation, is strictly prohibited and constitutes counterfeiting.

Any User committing counterfeiting may have their access to the Site removed without notice or compensation, without prejudice to possible legal proceedings initiated by the Publisher.

Trademarks and logos on the Site may be registered by Zéro de Conduite Productions or by its partners. Any reproduction or redistribution exposes the infringer to sanctions provided for by the French Intellectual Property Code.

Article 8 – Liability

The Publisher is not responsible for Users’ publications, their content, or accuracy. The Publisher cannot be held responsible for any damage to the User’s computer system and/or data loss resulting from the use of the Site.

The Publisher undertakes to keep the Site content updated and to provide Users with accurate, clear, and up-to-date information. The Site is generally accessible at all times, except during technical maintenance. The Publisher is not responsible for damages resulting from the unavailability of the Site.

Article 9 – Notifications and complaints

Any complaint related to the use of the Site or its Services must be made within 365 days of the originating problem; otherwise, it will be forever inadmissible in court.
