You acknowledge and agree that Guillemot and its assigns have no obligation to use the User Content or their derivatives, and that Guillemot and its assigns may decide at any time and at their sole discretion to stop using the same.

4. MORAL RIGHTS

Pursuant to Article L. 121-1 of the French intellectual property Code, you shall retain all of your moral rights attached to the User Content.

Nevertheless, you expressly agree that your name, stage name, username or the like, shall not appear on the reproductions or representations of the User Content due to technical constraints, and especially in the event of the diffusion of the User Content via Guillemot’s mobile applications and/or software.

Likewise, you waive any right to inspect or approve the finished material in which the User Content may be used, or the use to which the User Content may be applied. For this purpose, you agree that the reproductions and representations of the User Content may be modified or adapted to Guillemot’s products and activities, according to Guillemot’s requirements, subject the respect of the integrity of works of mind included in the User Content.

5. WARRANTY

For the purposes of the UGC Terms of Use, you certify and guaranty (i) that you are the exclusive owner of the User Content, or that you have all the authorizations required, for all of the uses set out in the UGC Terms of Use; and (ii) that your agreement to the UGC Terms of Use does not violate any agreement, contract, right or obligation between you and any third party (partners, sponsors, team, federations, association, etc.).

You also represent and warrant that the User Content is legally available and is not encumbered – in  any way whatsoever, whether partially or completely, directly or indirectly – by  third party rights (photographs, third party’s image rights, sounds, trademarks, copyrights, etc.). Accordingly, once you reply to Guillemot with the Hashtag, you are deemed to be the sole owner of all intellectual property rights, neighbouring rights, image rights and/or to have obtained all necessary authorizations of third parties (including to have paid third parties, if applicable), and User Content is deemed publishable in your opinion. In case of requirement regarding the use of the User Content, you shall inform and indicate the particulars thereof (for example, requirement to mention the author).

You warrant that you are of lawful age and have the complete right and are entitled to enter into the UGC Terms of Use. You state further that you have read the UGC Terms of Use prior to the use of the Hashtag, and that you are fully aware of its content. The UGC Terms of Use shall be binding upon you and your heirs, legal representatives and assigns.

Accordingly, you shall hold Guillemot and its assigns harmless from any claims, court actions, civil proceedings and actions to establish title brought against Guillemot, its clients, licensees, assigns, manufacturers, distributors, agents and resellers on the grounds of the infringement of the rights of a third party, regardless of the cause thereof (copyrights, neighboring rights, intellectual property rights, image rights, right to privacy, etc.) or on which a third party possesses the rights, following the exercise of the assigned intellectual property rights or image rights.

You acknowledge and agree that Guillemot is unable to prevent and shall not be held liable for any use made by third parties of the User Content (alone, combined with other elements and/or works, or integrated in a larger unit or work) following their dissemination by Guillemot (although Guillemot shall alert the user should Guillemot become aware of any suspected misuse(s) of such User Content). Guillemot does not guarantee that the said dissemination shall take place under the supervision and control of Guillemot (for example, the publication of a video including the User Content on the Instagram website with the “Public” setting means that anyone can access, save, copy and use said video). Consequently, you agree not to make any claim or take any proceedings against Guillemot, its affiliates, directors, shareholders, administrators, employees or agents, or against the representatives, successors or officers of any of the same, or against persons acting with their permission or under their authority (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Discharged Persons”) in relation to any responsibility whatsoever, linked to the representation, reproduction, dissemination or exposition of the User Content. You hereby agree to release, discharge and hold harmless the Discharged Persons, against and in respect of any and all losses, damages, claims, liabilities, deficiencies, liens, legal actions, judgments, and/or liquidated damages directly or indirectly related to the use of the User Content by Guillemot and its assigns pursuant to the UGC Terms of Use.

You represent and warrant that you will not jeopardize the rights granted to Guillemot and its assigns under the UGC Terms of Use. For example, you represent and warrant that (i) you will not block any material included in the User Content that has been uploaded by Guillemot on YouTube website, and (ii) it will collaborate with Guillemot in the event that a material included in the User Content is subject to a Content ID claim or any other claim.
