OPPOSITION TO TEXT AND DATA MINING BY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

The structure of this present Site as well as all the audiovisual works and content present on the Site, as well as all their components (text, graphics, signs, signals, sounds, images, etc.) are protected by legislation relating to intellectual property and may not be used in any way without the prior written authorization of the company ALEF ONE UK.

Insofar as is necessary, the company ALEF ONE UK hereby objects to any copies or digital reproductions of these audiovisual works, content and/or any of their components protected by copyright (text, graphics, signs, signals, sounds, images, etc.) for the purpose of text and data mining, in particular by an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system, within the terms of Articles L. 122-5-3, III and L. 211-3, 8° of the French Intellectual Property Code transposing European Directive (EU) 2019/790 of 17 April 2019 on copyright and related rights in the digital single market.

Article R. 122-28 of the French Intellectual Property Code specifies that such opposition ‘need not be justified and may be expressed by any means. In the case of content made available to the public online, such opposition may in particular be expressed by means of machine-readable processes, including metadata, and by recourse to the general terms and conditions of use of a website or service’.

It is hereby recalled that, within the framework of its activities, ALEF ONE UK may authorize its co-contractors and/or online press services to use the audiovisual works, content and/or any of their components protected by copyright (text, graphics, signs, signals, sounds, images, etc.) present on the Site, and this to the extent strictly necessary to carry out the authorized use. However, these authorizations do not allow these co-contractors and/or online press services to make copies or digital reproductions of these works/content and/or their components with a view to searching texts and data, nor to authorize a third party to do so, in particular an AI system.

Consequently, all text and data mining operations by an AI system using audiovisual works, content and/or any of their components protected by copyright (text, graphics, signs, signals, sounds, images, etc.) presented or made available to the public online on this Site or by third parties, whether this availability is by extracts or in full, in free access for free or for a fee, constitute acts of counterfeiting, punishable by the penalties provided for in Articles L. 331-1 et seq. of the French Intellectual Property Code, unless prior written consent is obtained from the company ALEF ONE UK (or, where appropriate, the collective management organization to which the company ALEF ONE UK has expressly entrusted the mandate for this purpose).

To make it easier to read this right of opposition by machine or any automated data collection device, this opposition is also expressed as follows: < TDM-RESERVATION:1> or TDM: NO
