BLUELEMON undertakes to maintain these guarantees throughout the term of the contract and to provide proof thereof upon the Client’s request.
8.1 In the event that BLUELEMON creates Content:
In the event that Content is created on behalf of the Client, BLUELEMON hereby declares that the delivered Content, regardless of its form (including but not limited to text, images, audio, software, videos, computer code, etc.), shall be transferred to the Client upon full payment of the amount specified in the Quote.
This transfer applies solely to the rights to use the delivered Content and is strictly limited to:
Under no circumstances may the rights granted exceed those obtained by BLUELEMON from its partners, freelancers, creators, or any other third parties.
Upon full payment, BLUELEMON grants the Customer the rights to reproduce, use, adapt, translate, upload, and distribute the delivered Content on any medium known or unknown at this time, for the duration of copyright protection and worldwide, within the limits defined above.

These items remain the exclusive property of BLUELEMON.
The Customer has no right to reproduce, adapt, reuse, or exploit such Content outside the strict scope of the delivered Content, unless BLUELEMON has given its prior written consent.

Unless otherwise expressly stated, the following are not included in the transfer:
BLUELEMON indemnifies the Customer against any claims by third parties regarding the infringement of their intellectual property rights in the delivered Content, to the extent of the rights granted, and warrants that the distribution of such Content complies with applicable laws.
In the event that BLUELEMON provides the Customer with its advertising message distribution services for content that it did not create, the Customer warrants to BLUELEMON that the advertising messages do not violate any applicable rights, rules, or laws, including intellectual property rights, image rights, and privacy rights.
The Customer is solely responsible for obtaining all rights and authorizations necessary for the distribution of such content, as well as for paying the applicable fees.
Under these circumstances, the Customer agrees to indemnify BLUELEMON against any judgment, claim, or costs (judicial or extrajudicial) arising from the use of the provided content.
For services involving creators, influencers, or user-generated content (UGC), usage rights are limited to the negotiated terms (duration, media, territories), as specified in the Quote or related agreements.
The Customer acknowledges and agrees that BLUELEMON does not guarantee any exclusivity when the Order is placed.
BLUELEMON therefore draws the Customer’s attention to the fact that other customers who may be competitors of the Customer may also benefit from BLUELEMON’s services and offerings in adjacent or contiguous Advertising Spaces during the same period.
The Client hereby waives in advance any liability claim against BLUELEMON arising from this lack of exclusivity, which the Client acknowledges having fully accepted.
Unless otherwise requested and approved by BLUELEMON, the Client agrees never to solicit, for their own personal benefit, directly or indirectly, individuals working for BLUELEMON (including employees, non-employees, partners, shareholders, independent contractors, and freelancers working on their own behalf), in any manner or for any reason whatsoever.
This non-solicitation agreement applies for the entire duration of the contract and for a period of twelve (12) months following the contract’s termination date.
Any violation will result in the payment of a lump-sum penalty equivalent to 12 months of average compensation.

Even in cases of force majeure, the party claiming that performance is impossible due to such a cause must nevertheless:
In the event that one of the Parties fails to perform all or part of its obligations due to force majeure, the advertising contract may be terminated at the request of the other Party, by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt, without such termination entitling the other Party to any damages.
If the period during which the contract cannot be performed is less than eight (8) days, the parties’ obligations shall be suspended for the duration of the interruption. The contract for the broadcast of advertising messages shall resume normal performance once the event constituting force majeure has ceased, for the remaining term specified in the Order.
10.2. In the event that either Party fails to fulfill its obligations under these General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertising Messages, and such failure is not remedied or resolved within eight (8) days of the sending of a written notice requesting that the Party remedy the breach, the other Party may terminate the contract by sending a registered letter with return receipt requested, without prejudice to claims for damages.
Services already provided or contracted remain due in the event of termination.
Each time an Order is confirmed, BLUELEMON agrees to provide its Customer with written notice of any financial relationships it maintains with media outlets or advertising agencies, as well as the amount of any equity stakes.
Furthermore, throughout the duration of any Advertising Campaign, BLUELEMON agrees to provide written notice of any new or modified financial relationships or of any changes to the amount of equity stakes.
Both during the advertising campaign and after its conclusion, BLUELEMON agrees to keep confidential all documents and information provided by the Client, including, but not limited to, its products, plans, budgets, and development projects.

Data may be transferred outside the European Union if necessary to provide the services.
Each Party undertakes to comply with, and to ensure that its employees and subcontractors comply with, the regulations in force regarding fraud and anti-corruption, including Law No. 2016-1691, known as “Sapin II,” dated December 9, 2016, concerning transparency, the fight against corruption, and the modernization of economic life, hereinafter referred to as the Sapin II Law.
Accordingly, the Parties undertake to:
Comply with all applicable regulations aimed at combating fraud, corruption, influence peddling, and illegal collusion;
8.2 In the event of the distribution of advertising messages provided by the Client:
Not to directly or indirectly offer, give, promise, solicit, accept, or imply the intention to do so, with regard to any improper financial benefit or benefit of any other kind, for the benefit of or originating from a private or public entity;
Refrain from any action, omission, or influence—whether directly or through an intermediary—that could result in their liability under the Sapin II Act.
It is understood that any breach of this clause by either Party shall be considered a material breach that may result in the termination of the contractual relationship without notice or compensation, without prejudice to any legal action and/or claim for damages against the defaulting party.
BLUELEMON may modify these General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertisements at any time and at its sole discretion.
Any modifications will take effect on the day they are posted on the Website.
Any tolerance by either Party of the other Party’s failure to perform or imperfect performance of one or more provisions or obligations of these General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertising Messages, whether temporary or permanent, shall not be construed as a waiver, even implied, of the rights arising from said provision.
In the event that any provision of these General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertising Messages is invalidated by a court decision or due to a change in the law, the parties expressly agree that the other provisions of the contract shall remain unaffected and undertake to negotiate as soon as possible to find a legally valid clause to replace the invalidated clause.
These General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertisements are governed by French law.
The Parties shall make every effort to settle amicably any dispute that may arise between them regarding the application of these General Terms and Conditions for the Publication of Advertising Messages.
In the absence of an amicable agreement between the Parties, any dispute related to the formation or performance of the contract for the publication of advertising messages shall fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Paris.
