NOTES
(AAENPC/Ponts Alumni Committee deliberation of December 18, 2001)
This directory is protected by law n°98-536 of July 1, 1998, which punishes infringement of the rights of the producer of a database as defined in article L. 342-1 of the Code de la propriété
intellectuelle by two years' imprisonment and a fine of 150,000 euros. The AAENPC/Ponts Aumni and Unipef benefit from protection of the content of the databases appearing in this directory, in application of article L.341-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code.
When the AAENPC/Ponts Alumni Committee deliberated on December 18, 2001, and when the Unipef Committee deliberated on January 8, 2002, it was decided to prohibit any user from:
The AAENPC/Ponts Aumni and Unipef committees are responsible for the protection of the content of the databases appearing in this directory, in application of article L.341-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code.
- extraction, by permanent or temporary transfer of all or a qualitatively or quantitatively substantial part of the contents of their databases onto another medium, by any means and in any form whatsoever;
- reuse, by making available to the public all or a qualitatively or quantitatively substantial part of the content of their databases, in whatever form.
Any user of our databases who gives, rents, exchanges, sells or lends all or part of our databases will therefore be liable to immediate legal action.
