5. Intellectual property

The platform's trademarks, logos and elements are protected. Any unauthorized use is prohibited. User content remains their property, subject to the license granted above.

This warranty applies to all content and works published in any format, including images, photographs, written works and documents (e.g. PDF), audio, music and videos. The user warrants that they hold, or have obtained, all licences and authorisations necessary for the reproduction and public display of such works and of any third-party material they incorporate.

7. Suspension and termination

The user may delete their account at any time. The publisher reserves the right to suspend or delete an account in case of breach of these Terms, while respecting the rights of defense.

9. Account security

The user is responsible for keeping their credentials secure and confidential. Any connection or action carried out through their account is presumed to be performed by them, until a compromise is notified to security@cinelova.com. The user undertakes to report any unauthorised use of their account without delay.

10. AI-generated or AI-assisted content

They warrant that such content complies with third-party rights and applicable law and undertake, where required by law, to disclose its artificial nature (deepfakes, synthetic content).

11. Automated data extraction

12. Warranty and indemnification

The user warrants and undertakes to indemnify the publisher against any claim, action, judgment, damages, and reasonable costs (including lawyers' fees) arising from a breach by the user of these Terms, of the law, or from content they have published.

For users of the free service, this cap is set at zero (0) euros.

Safety and user tools

The platform provides tools to control your interactions:

Blocking: you can block a user. Your profiles, content and exchanges become mutually invisible and all messaging stops.
Friends-only messaging: you can choose to be reachable only by your friends; others must send a contact request that you accept or decline.
Reporting: you can report content or a message to moderation.

Moderation and sanctions

Our moderators may review reported content and messages, hide or remove a message that breaches the rules and, in case of abuse, temporarily suspend the messaging access of the user concerned. These measures aim to protect the community and are applied proportionately, without prejudice to the remedies provided in our reporting procedure (DSA).

8. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by French law. In the event of a dispute, and after attempting an amicable resolution, the French courts have jurisdiction. Consumers may use a consumer mediator or the European online dispute resolution platform (ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr).

Users who are consumers retain the benefit of the mandatory protective provisions of the law of their country of residence within the European Union; no provision herein may deprive them of these.
