3.1. Website and Programmes
The Website, all its elements and the Programmes are protected by intellectual property rights, in particular by copyright and trademark law.
The Programs available on the Site depend on the rights acquired by ARTE EDUCATION from the rights holders. Consequently, one or more Programs may not be available throughout the entire Territory.
The right of access to the Website granted to the User (Article 2.2 hereof) does not include any authorisation to reproduce or represent all or part of the Website and the Programmes. Consequently, without ARTE EDUCATION ’s prior written authorisation, any reproduction or representation of all or part of the Website and/or the Programmes, other than the exceptions provided for by the Intellectual Property Code, shall constitute an act of infringement and may be subject to legal action before the competent courts.
The User therefore agrees, under penalty of civil and/or criminal sanctions, not to represent or cause to be represented, reproduce or cause to be reproduced, adapt, modify, transfer, sell, distribute or imitate all or part of the Website or Programmes. Similarly, the use in any manner whatsoever of the logos and/or trademarks appearing on the Website is prohibited without the express consent of ARTE EDUCATION. Any unauthorised reproduction or representation is liable to constitute an infringement of intellectual property rights.
The User accepts ARTE EDUCATION ’s exclusive editorial control over the Website and Programmes. The User expressly acknowledges that ARTE EDUCATION may at any time change or delete all or part of the Website and Programmes, without prior notice and at its sole discretion.
3.2. Video Player
ARTE EDUCATION has developed a video player that allows Users to view the Programmes in the various language versions available on the Website, subject to the provisions of Article 3.3 below.
The Player is protected by copyright as software and must be used as provided by ARTE EDUCATION. Any alteration, adaptation, deletion, decompilation or reverse engineering of the Player, its functions or its appearance is expressly forbidden without the prior written authorisation of ARTE EDUCATION.
In accordance with the contractual stipulations agreed with the rights holders, normal use of the Player, as authorised by these TOU, allows the User to view the Programmes via Streaming or Temporary Download, subject to the provisions of Article 3.3 below.
Unless otherwise stated, it does not allow the Programmes offered via the Player to be downloaded permanently.
Consequently, any saving, whatever the process or medium used for this purpose, of all or part of the Programmes that does not fall within the scope of a legal exception provided for by the Intellectual Property Code is expressly prohibited without the prior written authorisation of ARTE EDUCATION.
Similarly, it is hereby reiterated that editing, making available to the public or communicating to the public any software, application, website, etc. that allows the normal use of the Player to be circumvented, in particular with a view to permanently downloading all or part of the Programmes, is prohibited.

The “Share” function allows the User to share the Programmes they have selected on the Website with all or part of their network.
The “Share” function also allows the User to share (embed) the video player within the digital workspace of the User’s Institution that has subscribed to the Website, it being specified that in this case, only Teachers or Students of the Institution in question will have access to the video player, to the exclusion of any other third party.
3.4. Using the “My Network” Function
In their profile privacy settings, Users have the option of appearing in the directory of Users registered on the Website and thus building up a network within the Website.
It should be noted that this directory can only be viewed by Users who are duly registered on the Website.

In general, ARTE EDUCATION cannot be held liable for any damage (including direct, personal and certain damage) suffered by the User and/or by third parties and for which it has been proven that ARTE EDUCATION ’s actions are not the cause of such damage.
Consequently, and in view of ARTE EDUCATION ’s obligations of means, ARTE EDUCATION shall not be liable for any compensation for intangible or material damage, nor for any compensation for damage suffered by third parties, whatever the nature thereof, where it has been proven that ARTE EDUCATION ’s actions did not cause such damage.
Similarly, ARTE EDUCATION shall not be liable for connection costs or, in general, any communication costs incurred through accessing and using the Websites and Programmes.
