COPYRIGHT AND REPRODUCTION RIGHTS FOR ONLINE CONTENT
Reproduction rights for public or official documents
Since the publication of Order No. 2005-650 of June 6, 2005 relating to freedom of access to administrative documents and the reuse of public information, this information may be reused for purposes other than those for which it was produced, and particularly information that is the subject of public distribution. These documents intended for public distribution are not covered by any copyright and may therefore be reproduced freely. The graphics, iconography and editorial content remain the property of the State and, as such, are subject to the protections provided for by the Intellectual Property Code.
Article L.122-5 of the Intellectual Property Code establishes the principle according to which, “when the work has been disclosed, the author cannot prohibit the dissemination, even in full, by means of the press or television, as current information, of speeches intended for the public given in political assemblies, (…), as well as in public meetings of a political nature and official ceremonies”.
This is therefore the case in particular for speeches and public interventions which are similar to an exception to copyright. Similarly, public or official documents such as official press releases are not covered by any copyright, and may therefore be freely reproduced.
If the partial or complete reproduction of these contents is authorized, it must be accompanied by the mention of the name of the author, the source, and possibly a link to the original document online on the site. The mention “© FLUXONICS – www.fluxonics.org” must therefore be indicated.
All other content on the site is covered by copyright. Any reproduction is therefore subject to the author’s agreement under Article L.122-4 of the Intellectual Property Code.
The information reproduced must only be for personal, associative or professional purposes; any distribution or use for commercial or advertising purposes is prohibited.
Request for authorization to reproduce content
The request must specify the content in question as well as the publication or site on which it will appear. Once this authorization has been obtained, the reproduction of content must comply with the following principles:
- free distribution
- respect for the integrity of the documents reproduced (no modification or alteration of any kind)
- mandatory mention: “© FLUXONICS – www.fluxonics.org – all rights reserved”. This mention will point via a hyperlink directly to the content
- insertion of an icon representing the website
Supervised organizations and other ministries are exempt from this request for authorization subject to the insertion of the mention: “© FLUXONICS – www.fluxonics.org – rights reserved”. This mention will point via a hyperlink directly to the content.
RESPONSIBILITY FOR LINKS TO OTHER SITES
The site www.fluxonics.org offers many links to other sites, mainly official sites (government, institutions, public bodies, etc.) but also to French or foreign sites of associations, professional organizations in the education sector or partner companies on one-off operations.
Each time, it is systematically specified which site we are suggesting you go to. These pages, whose addresses are regularly checked, are not part of the site www.fluxonics.org: they do not engage the responsibility of the editors of the site, who cannot be held responsible for the content to which these links point. They are only intended to allow the Internet user to more easily access other documentary resources on the subject consulted.
REQUEST FOR CREATION OF LINKS
Creation of links to the site www.fluxonics.org
The site www.fluxonics.org authorizes, without prior authorization, the establishment of hypertext links pointing to its pages, subject to:
- not using the deep link technique, i.e. the pages of the site www.fluxonics.org must not be embedded within the pages of another site, but visible by opening an independent window
- mention the source which will point via a hyperlink directly to the targeted content
Sites that choose to point to www.fluxonics.org incur liability if they damage the image of the public site.
