VIDEOCHAT GENERAL RULES

INTRODUCTION

Members have full access to Videochat's functions.

Members agree to observe these conditions of use. If you do not accept them, you will not be allowed to join.

By signing-up for one or more services and using the site, members are indicating their complete acceptance of these rules. By checking the box, "I have read the general conditions of use and accept them," in the lower part of the page, the member agrees that he/she is bound by these conditions of use.

Article 1. ACCESS AND ENROLLMENT

The equipment (computer, applications, means of remote communication, etc.) that allow access to the services, as well as the cost of the remote communication connection that allows their use, are the member's exclusive responsibility.

To enroll, you must be at least 18 years old and fill-in all the required fields on the enrollment form.

The member guarantees that the information provided is true and correct. The member will immediately notify us if any of the information provided at the time of enrollment is changed and, if necessary, will make those changes directly and personally.

If the indispensable conditions for enrollment are satisfied, each member will have a username and password, which are strictly personal and may not be shared with third parties. The service will not be liable in any way for a member's loss of a username and/or password.

We reserve the right to close a user's account without warning if this information is used in a way contrary to its purpose.

The member will be solely responsible for the use of these pieces of identification by third parties or actions and statements made through his/her account, whether fraudulent or not. The member will indemnify us against any claim in that regard. Videochat does not have the means to verify the identities of the people who sign-up for its services and, for this reason, we cannot be liable if a member's identity is abused. If a member has reason to believe that someone is using his or her identification information, he/she must notify us by e-mail.

We reserve the right to cancel the accounts of members that have not used the service for 6 months, or more. The date used to calculate the length of this period will be the date of the last connection to the site.

Article 2. USE OF VIDEOCHAT

After enrolling and, on the condition of having a username and password, the member will be allowed to access the available services. ATELIER NOIRE LTD undertakes to keep the member updated about new features and services on the site.

In particular, when using the services, the member undertakes to:

Respect the current law of the country in which the service is being used and the rights of third parties.

Not to use Videochat for professional or commercial purposes (searching for customers, soliciting or prostitution) dealing with material about minors and explicit pornographic material. The use of Videochat, or any of its free and for-charge services, to directly or indirectly publicize other sites or commercial activities or, in any case, other forms of contract, without explicit authorization, is absolutely forbidden.

It is absolutely forbidden to exchange e-mail addresses or MSN or Yahoo contact information, or similar.

The user must not, in any way, attempt to get around the on-line filters whose purpose is to limit the display of some information that is reserved to other categories of members, or paying members.

Do not use Videochat to destabilize the community, act offensively or in any way intended to create unease or disturb members.

Users who will make use of services offered by their partners will be directly responsible for their own actions (Videochat, private rooms, ads, etc.)

Only publish and distribute true information or content.

Do not use expressions or publish content in any form that infringes on the rights of third parties or that have a defamatory, insulting, obscene, offensive or violent character or that incite political, racial and xenophobic violence and, in general, content contrary to the purpose of Videochat as well as current law and moral standards. In particular, photographs, videos and any other information or file provided by a member must refer exclusively to the member.

Do not publish, or distribute in any way, information or content that has the effect of diminishing, disorganizing or obstructing the normal use of services, or interrupting and/or slowing the normal flow of communication between members through services such as applications, viruses, Trojan horses, sending mass e-mails (spam), etc.

Do not publish or distribute in any form, information or content that includes connections to other sites of an illegal character, contrary to morality and/or not conforming to the purpose.

Except for the dispositions in the "Cancellation" clause, in the case of a violation by a member of one or more of these rules, ATELIER NOIRE LTD reserves the right to block the account of the member involved and automatically delete controversial messages, blocking the publication of the member's profile, in whole and in part, and/or blocking access to services either temporarily or permanently.
