licence.
c. The license is granted for the duration of the subscription. It is intended to allow the use of Waalaxy to the exclusion
of any other purpose.

duration of the subscription and for the whole world.

9. Limitation of liability
a. Access to Waalaxy requires an Internet connection. The quality of your connection to this network depends on your
subscriptions and equipment.
b. The Internet network is subject to possible interruptions and/or slowdowns. Under these conditions, Waapi does
not guarantee the continuity of Waalaxy.
c. Waapi uses security infrastructures and access control mechanisms in order to protect data and the proper
functioning of Waalaxy. However, the Internet network exposes its users to the communication of computer viruses
as well as to malicious acts that may cause damage to your equipment and/or data. It is therefore your responsibility
to ensure the security of your equipment.
d. By accepting the general terms and conditions, you waive the right to hold Waapi liable for this type of damage
insofar as it is not linked to a fault committed by Waapi.
e. Access to Waalaxy or to some of its functionalities may occasionally be suspended to allow interventions and
maintenance or updates necessary for their proper functioning. If an intervention is planned, you will be informed
by any means.
f. You waive the right to hold Waapi liable for the possible consequences of the unavailability of the service(s) and the
subscription remains due according to the conditions initially subscribed to. (No reimbursement, compensation or
payment of damages is possible in the event of temporary unavailability of the site and/or services).
g. By accepting the general terms and conditions, if you demonstrate that Waapi has committed a fault during the
course of the contract, in accordance with articles 1231-3, 1231-4 et seq. of the French Civil Code and the constant
jurisprudence of the French Supreme Court (Cour de Cassation), you waive your right to claim from Waapi more
than compensation for the pecuniary consequences of direct and foreseeable damage caused by our fault. Waapi
will therefore not be liable for any indirect or unforeseeable loss or damage suffered by the licensee or third parties,
such as, but not limited to any lost profit, total or partial loss, inaccuracy or partial or total corruption of files or data,
commercial prejudice, loss of turnover or profit, loss of clientele, loss of a chance, cost of obtaining a substitute
product, service or technology, in connection with or arising from the non-performance or faulty performance of
the services.
h. In addition, except in the case of a typical breach of our contractual obligations towards you, you accept, in
application of article 1231-5 of the French Civil Code, that Waapi's liability is limited to a ceiling equal to the
reimbursement of the last year's subscription that you paid, or in the event that our insurer assumes responsibility
for the claim, to the ceiling of the compensation actually paid by our insurer in this respect.
i. Waapi cannot be held responsible for the accidental destruction of data by the customer or by a third party using
Waalaxy with the customer's login and password.

received and accepted.
b. In case of non-payment of an invoice when due, access to Waalaxy will be suspended until the payment incident is
settled.
12. Economic dependence
a. If you derive a benefit from the services offered by the API to such an extent that it becomes essential to the
proper functioning of your business, or that it creates a situation of economic dependence towards Waapi, you
must inform us without delay in accordance with articles L420-1 et seq. of the French Commercial Code.
b. If you fail to comply with this obligation, you de facto waive your right to hold us liable in the event of your account
being deleted for any reason whatsoever and/or to invoke sudden termination of the contractual relationship on
the grounds of economic dependence.
13. Compliance of Waalaxy use with legal rules.
a. By subscribing to the services provided by Waapi, you agree not to use Waalaxy in any way contrary to the rules of
law, public order and morality. You acknowledge that you are fully aware that the publisher of a web site and/or
application may expressly forbid the use of such a solution and it is your responsibility to be aware of the operating
rules of each web site before using the possibilities offered by Waapi. If you are in any doubt as to the consent of
the website targeted by the scraping operation, you undertake to request the required authorisations before using
the Waapi Solutions.

verifications before proceeding with the use of Waalaxy .
c. By accepting the present terms and conditions, you release and indemnify Waapi against all consequences that may
arise from the use of Waalaxy that does not comply with the requirements of the present terms and conditions.

your operations comply with all the legal and regulatory provisions relating to the practice of "scraping" (or "content
extraction").
14. Personal data.
a. By accepting these terms and conditions, you acknowledge that Waapi does not process personal data on your
behalf and/or for your account.
b. However, through the present contract, Waapi provides access to the Waapi Solutions functionalities, which
potentially make it possible to do so. The present provisions therefore organise the responsibilities of Waapi and
the Licensee with regard to all the legal provisions relating to the protection of personal data and with a view to
informing the persons concerned by the collection and processing of their data.
c. The customer declares and accepts :
> that it alone determines the purposes and means of processing personal data.
> that it is and remains solely responsible for the processing carried out (within the meaning of the RGPD)
> that it alone assumes all legal consequences relating directly or indirectly to disputes, litigation and/or
liabilities arising from the processing of personal data.

that may affect it directly or indirectly as a result of a breach of legal and/or regulatory obligations relating to the
protection of personal data.

data and on the free movement of such data (General Regulation on the Protection of Personal Data or GDPR).

acceptance of the new general terms and conditions.
c. If you refuse to accept the new terms and conditions, your account will be terminated.
17. Termination of contract.
a. The subscription is entered into for the initial duration chosen by the customer. Unless
terminated by them, it automatically renews at the end of the commitment period for an

to the payment of the amounts remaining due until the end of your current commitment.

You may not use them without our prior written consent. You may not use them without our prior written
permission.
b. Violation of this rule is punishable under articles L.3335-2 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code.
c. Waapi benefits from the "rights of database producers" referred to in Book III, Title IV, of the French Intellectual
Property Code (Law no. 98-536 of 1 July 1998) relating to copyright and databases, and in particular from the
protection afforded by Article L341-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code, which states that "The producer of a
database, understood as the person who takes the initiative and the risk of the corresponding investments, benefits
from a protection of the contents of the database when the constitution, verification or presentation of the latter
attests to a substantial financial, material or human investment. This protection is independent of and without
prejudice to the protection afforded by copyright or any other right in the database or any of its constituent elements".
19. Force majeure.
a. Any breach of any of the obligations of these general terms and conditions caused by a case of force majeure, as
defined in article 1218 of the French Civil Code, will exonerate the parties from their liability.
b. If such an event occurs, the party prevented by the event from performing its service shall inform the other party
by any means as soon as possible.
c. The suspension of obligations or the delay shall under no circumstances be a cause of liability for non-performance
of the obligation in question, nor lead to the payment of damages or penalties for delay.
20. Dispute management
a. If a dispute arises during the course of the contract, you undertake, in the same way as Waapi, to try to find an
amicable solution to the dispute before taking the matter to court.
b. If no agreement is reached within 60 days of the attempt to reach an amicable settlement, everyone regains their
right to take legal action.
c. To engage Waapi's civil liability, you must act within one calendar year of the claim arising, as permitted by article
2254 of the Civil Code.
d. Only the courts within the jurisdiction of the Montpellier Court of Appeal may hear a dispute between us, regardless
of where your company is based.
e. In the event of a dispute, only the computer registers containing the trace of exchanges between the parties, held
by Waapi or its technical partners and kept in conditions that guarantee their integrity, will be deemed authentic
between the parties.
21. Miscellaneous
a. The nullity, lapse, lack of binding force or unenforceability of one or any of the stipulations of the general terms and
conditions shall not entail the nullity, lapse, lack of binding force or unenforceability of the other stipulations, which
shall retain all their effects.
b. However, the parties may, by mutual agreement, agree to replace the invalidated stipulation(s).
