‍

5.2 - Although Billone SAS undertakes to do everything possible to ensure optimal security and protects the intellectual property rights of all, the User/Member expressly waives any recourse against the Publisher in the event of any infringement of their privacy, their image rights or any consequence likely to harm them due to the disclosure or dissemination of content posted online by them or by another User/Member.

5.3 - In the event that the Company's liability is sought due to a breach by the User/Member of the obligations incumbent upon him under any applicable regulations, with regard to the General Terms of Use, General Terms of Sale or the Charter, the User/Member undertakes to guarantee and hold the Company harmless from any judgment rendered against it, from all costs incurred and to compensate the Company for all damages suffered.

5.4 - Copyright infringement has serious consequences, particularly for the plagiarized creator, both in the eyes of the Site/Application and under the law. Billone SAS takes intellectual property infringement very seriously and removes any counterfeit or plagiarized digital content from the platform if the digital media is found guilty of copyright infringement. After three warnings, the content creator will be permanently banned from the Site.

5.5 - Disinformation is prohibited on the Website or the Application. By definition, the word "information" refers to the act of informing someone or a group of individuals and keeping them up-to-date on tangible facts or events, whether geopolitical or cultural. In other words, for Billone SAS, anyone deliberately wishing to inform Users/Members when creating a post about tangible facts or events on our Website/Application is obligated, in every written or video medium containing information, to cite their sources, either orally or in writing. Every informational video must be sourced and/or documented with supporting evidence. Failure to comply with these guidelines may result in the video being removed if it is rightfully determined to be disinformation. 

As a reminder: disinformation is the use of mass media techniques to mislead, conceal, or distort the facts. This type of behavior is prohibited, and any User/Member will be sanctioned and their account permanently deleted. It is also important to emphasize, again as a means of combating disinformation, that if figures are published in a public awareness survey, it is crucial and mandatory to define and/or cite the organization requesting the survey, the number of people interviewed, their ages, their geographical location, and the ability to provide visual evidence upon request from all sources and interviews examined. These restrictions serve the public interest by preventing the manipulation of figures and their misrepresentation.

5.6 - Any AI-generated video/image must be acknowledged verbally or in writing when a post is created. Any video that does not include this attribution may be penalized. The User/Member risks permanent account deletion if, in particular, the content is found to be copied or defamatory and the resulting harm is substantiated by reports from other Users/Members or by Billone SAS.

Registered Members may, at any time, decide to terminate their subscription or registration via the Application/Website, or close their account in their settings. This request will be processed as quickly as possible, with effect from the next business day following receipt of the request. 

6.1 - The User/Member acknowledges and accepts the rules applicable on the Site/Application, the Services, and that failure to comply with these rules may result in the permanent deletion of their account and expressly waives the right to reimbursement for third-party services from Billone SAS. 

6.2 - The Publisher reserves the right unilaterally, at any time, and after having previously informed the User/Member by email sent to the main email address mentioned on the account, to interrupt access to and the Publisher's Services without the User/Member being able to claim any compensation whatsoever. 

6.3 - The User/Member acknowledges and accepts that they cannot cancel their paid subscription for a free plan if their Ewallet balance contains money stored as tips or received from the sale of tickets associated with the creation of an event in order to protect their interests and those of other members, particularly in the context of an event with presale including participating third-party Users/Members.

6.4 - If Silver and Gold Members fail to pay their subscription fees on time, their access will be immediately restricted and the benefits included in their chosen plan will be forfeited. The Member will then only have access to the free services available to Standard Members. All deposits and withdrawals to the Ewallet and any associated bank accounts (bank details) will be frozen. Previous earnings from referrals will be paid out as business introducers, and all pending referrals earned after the end of their subscription will be revoked and removed from the Ewallet's payment history. 

‍

6.5 - If no substantial profit is available on the IBAN(s) registered by the User, please note that maintaining it generates financial costs for Billone SAS. Consequently, the bank details registered and associated with the various IBANs in the Ewallet included in the Silver and Gold plans will be permanently deleted upon cancellation of a subscription. Only the history of invoices, credit notes, receipts, and account statements made in the name and on behalf of a third party will remain in the Free (standard) plan.

‍

The following are some exceptions or situations detailed below for Organizers/Sellers using our ticketing system:

• After the interruption of payment for a paid subscription, the event without presale created as organizer is automatically and permanently cancelled and the Participants will be notified;

• After the interruption of payment of a paid subscription, the bank account(s) associated with a prize pool for a fraudulent event following a confirmed report from a User/Member/Participant, will see the activation of the Ewalet and its associated bank account details, kept active for reimbursements before its deletion after regularization (generating late payment penalty fees when billing (detailed in the Terms and Conditions);
  

• An Organizer in the process of pre-sale, having already made sales and/or collected money in their bank account associated with their event through our ticketing system, cannot cancel their subscription without first reimbursing their Participants for the contractual security of the latter.
  

• In the event that a member's paid subscription is terminated due to non-payment or a problem with their bank card payment, the funds received in their e-wallet, linked to their event (with pre-sale) and current ticket sales, will not be blocked. This is to avoid any disputes between participants and the freezing of the organizer's earnings. The member/organizer will then have 3 days to rectify the situation. However, the member/organizer will owe “Billone SAS” a late payment penalty of €10, applied to their invoice and deducted directly from their e-wallet balance as a negative amount.
  

• From the fourth (4) day after a subscription interruption during an event (with pre-sale) and once tickets have been sold, the cancellation and refund of the event become final, and Participants are automatically refunded from the balance in the Organizer's event fund, or from their e-wallet where their virtual money is stored, or via a SEPA direct debit mandate accepted by the Organizer upon registration and acceptance of the registered bank details (IBAN). During or after this period, the free services of the application will be inaccessible. The User will then be required to rectify their situation to use the Application/Website again and will owe the company the amount of their previous subscription to regain access to the application's services as compensation, as well as the costs incurred by Billone SAS for maintaining their active e-wallet and the paid features associated with their previously purchased subscription. As compensation for the damage caused to Billone SAS, including all bank charges incurred as a result;
  

• After the interruption of payment of a paid subscription and the added RIB options (optional at purchase), the User expressly waives his balance including the amounts of the credits made at the discretion of the Publisher associated with Referrals occurring after the end of his subscription, as compensation for the damage caused to all the bank charges that this entails for Billone SAS.
  

6.6 - The voluntary termination of a User/Member's account, whether at their request or directly by the Publisher due to a breach of the Company's terms of use and sale, will not entitle the User to any refund of sums already paid. The User accepts that any ongoing paid Services they have purchased will be considered fulfilled by Billone SAS.

‍

6.7 - Voluntarily deleting a bank account number from a User/Member's account at their request is impossible as long as funds are still present in the kitty of an event or on their E-wallet.

Indeed, such a deletion or termination would imply for the Member to forfeit the sums still stored on his E-wallet or would prevent the proper processing of refunds, even though Billone SAS remains contractually obligated to honor the payments due to the Sellers/Organizers/Participants concerned.

Therefore, the Member must first withdraw or regularize all funds present in their savings accounts and E-wallet before any deletion of bank details or request for definitive termination of the account.

6.8 - The termination of a User/Member's account at their request is impossible if their eWallet balance is suspected of fraud or if it contains funds received from tips or ticket sales at an event. According to the General Terms and Conditions of Sale, the organizer is responsible for refunds and the consequences of an event cancellation. The organizer must fulfill their obligations to participants regarding the execution and proper delivery of the service(s) offered for sale.

7.1 - The Publisher reserves the right, at any time and at its own discretion, to add, modify, or delete any content available on the Site/Application without prior notice to the User/Member.

Explicit nudity is prohibited, but it may be tolerated only in the "private albums" of members' private profiles and in a member's personal messaging. Private albums on professional pages, however, are not permitted to contain explicit content in order to prevent the resale of nudity-related content, as outlined in Article 5.1 of the Terms of Service above.

‍

7.2.1 - Media content representing the elements below, whether posted privately, publicly, or at events, will be rejected by our algorithms, and the User/Member will not be able to post prohibited content on the Site as identified by the algorithms.

If a user/member violates article 7.2.1 by posting inappropriate content, thereby failing to meet their obligations, their account may be temporarily or permanently excluded from the platform (Site/Application) depending on the severity of the harm caused . 
‍

Each media outlet is analyzed by an algorithm to ensure its restrictions are strictly enforced. The Publisher makes every effort to block categorically prohibited content that the User/Member might otherwise access. However, the User/Member is informed and accepts that the availability of these algorithms does not constitute an obligation of result for the Publisher, and therefore the Publisher cannot be held liable if sexually explicit content remains visible to the User/Member. The User/Member agrees to report any prohibited content on the platform, and the moderation team at Billone SAS commits to making every effort to enforce these terms of use. 

In cases of harassment, theft of intellectual property content as defined in Articles L 335-2 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code, and violations of a User/Member's freedom regarding inappropriate content directed at them and/or failure to obtain consent for explicit content published publicly or received via message, the User/Member is encouraged to report the incident by clicking the "Report this member" button and describing the facts, including the date and time of the harm caused. The Publisher will then determine whether the User/Member will be permanently banned from the Site/Application. Billone is deeply committed to respecting others and respecting consent, and promotes positive values ​​within its platform.

‍

6.2 INCOME TAX RETURN: 

In accordance with Law No. 2018-898 of October 23, 2018, against fraud, Billone SAS is legally obligated to report this information to the French tax authorities. Pursuant to Article 242 bis of the General Tax Code and Article L114-19-1 of the Social Security Code, the Directorate General of Public Finances now requires online platforms and collaborative economy entities to submit, by January 31st at the latest, an annual statement detailing the number and total gross amount of transactions carried out by the user during the previous calendar year. 

These obligations apply regardless of the region in France where the platform is established. Therefore, Billone SAS will send a summary to the member's e-wallet to justify and declare the income associated with a User's registered bank details, starting from €3,000 in earnings generated or more than 20 transactions per calendar year. Each User may have up to 3 bank details. Any bank details exceeding this limit will trigger a notification on their e-wallet via the application/website. 

A user can therefore represent up to 3 legal entities, either personally or professionally, simultaneously on the website/application. Users/members can delete their bank details and add new ones if they wish. Once the number of transactions or the €3,000 threshold is exceeded, the following information is collected: the user's name, surname, tax address associated with their declared tax identification number, and the profits earned on the Billone platform per declared bank account.

‍

NOTICED : 

• If the annual profits recorded in the calendar year from 01/01 to 31/12 of a third party are less than 3000 euros, but the user has concluded more than 20 transactions in the space of a year, we will be obliged to transmit the information concerning him to the tax authorities.

• In certain circumstances, Users/Members may be required to pay income tax on their earnings from the Billone SAS Website/Application. To learn more about whether a User is taxable, here is some information aboutincome tax and social security obligations in France.

‍

6.3 EXCEPTION FOR EVENTS BETWEEN PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS:

In certain cases, Billone SAS may be exempt from declaring its users' income for "non-profit" services derived from the sale of event tickets between individuals. Note: this exemption is conditional, meaning the user must not have generated more than €3,000 in revenue on the platform during the previous year or completed more than 20 transactions. 

Even if a Billone SAS user is required to declare their earnings on the platform, this does not necessarily mean they will be taxed on them. In other words, it is important to distinguish between occasional ticket sales, such as those used to reimburse expenses incurred at events organized by individuals, and sales that constitute a recurring, professional activity. 

‍

NOTICED : 

• All users of the Billone eWallet system receive an annual statement of their income for each registered bank account to ensure complete transparency. This annual statement is for informational purposes only. Sending it does not mean we will share your information with the tax authorities. 

• The French tax authorities use the information sent by Billone SAS to pre-fill income tax returns for sales of services residing in France. We encourage our Users/Members to review their tax return and adjust the figures if necessary using the annual statements sent to their e-wallet each calendar year.

‍

6.4 Additional Information, Restrictions and Obligations of the Ewallet Service

If necessary, they will need to provide all required documentation to substantiate their professional status, following the application's procedures.

6.7.11 The Owner of a Professional Page accepts and understands that no appeal period will be granted in the event of a bank rejection and non-payment by a User/Member following a chargeback. The fees for order cancellations made by a participant's bank account will be fully charged to the Owner of the Professional Page and summarized in the invoice. Indeed, an online credit card transaction can become unpaid when the cardholder informs their bank that a transaction was not authorized or that the order was not delivered. Rejections generally result from chargebacks following theft or loss. It can also occur if the transaction is not recognized on the cardholder's bank statement, which cancels the transaction and debits BILLONE's bank account for the amount of the canceled transaction. The Owner of the Professional Page waives their right to object and expressly releases BILLONE from all liability in the event of a failure of these systems, which they further acknowledge being fully aware of. In return, BILLONE will actively collaborate with the Owner of the Professional Page to assist them in the recovery process against the User(s)/Member(s), particularly in light of any confidential information that Billone SAS may hold to aid in this process.

6.7.12 Before contacting the Publisher, Users/Members must attempt to reach an amicable solution with the Owner of the Professional Page. If this fails or the solution is unsatisfactory, Users/Members must include with their complaint the correspondence, including the date and time of their interactions with the Organizer. The Publisher will review the complaint as quickly as possible and assess the situation to find a solution where possible, at its sole discretion.

6.7.13 In the event of a software error in tip billing by Billone, the Member with a Professional Page has 15 days to dispute it. Billone undertakes to fulfill all valid requests as quickly as possible.
