Site content

Any copying, reproduction, modification, publication, or adaptation of all or part of the elements of the site, by any means or process, is prohibited without the owner's prior written authorization.

Links and cookies

The ouiheberg.com site provides hyperlinks on various pages to other sites. Since it is impossible to verify the content of the sites thus visited, the owner cannot be held responsible and disclaims all liability.

Browsing this site may result in the installation of cookie(s) on the user's computer. A cookie is a small file that does not allow user identification, but records information relating to the navigation of a computer on a site. The data obtained are intended to facilitate subsequent navigation on the site, and also to enable various traffic measurements. Refusing the installation of a cookie may make it impossible to access certain services.

The user can however configure their browser to refuse the installation of cookies:

  • Internet Explorer: Tools tab (gear icon) > Internet Options > Privacy > Block all cookies.
  • Firefox: Firefox button > Options > Privacy > History settings > Use custom settings, then uncheck cookie acceptance.
  • Safari: menu (gear) > Settings > Show advanced settings > Privacy > Content settings > Cookies > Block cookies.

Liability

The owner cannot be held liable for direct and/or indirect damage to the user's equipment when accessing the ouiheberg.com site, resulting either from the use of equipment or from the appearance of a bug or incompatibility. It also cannot be held liable for indirect damages (such as loss of business or loss of opportunity) resulting from the use of this site.

The owner reserves the right to engage the civil and/or criminal liability of the user, in particular in the event of a message of a racist, abusive, defamatory, or pornographic nature, regardless of the medium used (text, photograph, etc.). The provision of incorrect personal information, in particular for the purpose of attempting to obtain a domain name in a quasi-anonymous manner, is prohibited and will directly result in the termination of the account and the related domain name(s).

The client shall bear all consequences, of whatever nature, including financial, in the event that they have not received a mandate from the persons whose names and contact details are transmitted for the purpose of registering a domain name. The client shall remain responsible for all facts and acts relating to the registered domain name. It is therefore up to the client to carry out all useful checks regarding the use of the domain name in accordance with ICANN rules, the supervisory authority, and the contractual rules issued by OuiHeberg. The client undertakes, where applicable, to comply with the out-of-court dispute resolution procedure applicable to the disputed domain.

Jurisdiction

Any dispute relating to the use of the ouiheberg.com site is subject to French law. Exclusive jurisdiction is assigned to the competent courts of Paris.

Main applicable laws

  • Law no. 78-17 of January 6, 1978, amended by law no. 2004-801 of August 6, 2004 relating to information technology, data files, and civil liberties.
  • Law no. 2004-575 of June 21, 2004 on confidence in the digital economy.

Newsletter

Each action on the site (via forms) leads you to accept the receipt of a regular newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time.

Hosting - VPS / Dedicated

OuiHeberg provides the client with a virtual VPS hosting infrastructure and an Internet connection whose technical characteristics are described online on the OuiHeberg website for a defined total monthly or annual amount, allowing the client to benefit from a high-speed, multi-purpose technical platform permanently connected to the Internet. The client benefits from a management panel to manage the service, available only under Linux. OuiHeberg is not required to provide technical support for the VPS server operating system or software.

Domain names

The client completes a detailed registration on the OuiHeberg website and provides all elements necessary for the registration of the requested domain name, including primary and, if applicable, secondary server addresses. Completion of the entire form conditions the admissibility of the registration procedure; any incomplete information will result in failure of the registration.

The client declares that they have received a mandate from all persons whose contact details they disclose and undertakes to notify OuiHeberg of any change within two business days. OuiHeberg reserves the right to suspend a domain name whose details appear to be false. The availability indicated on the site is purely indicative: only validation by OuiHeberg after actual registration by the registry constitutes registration (within a maximum of 2 business days after confirmation, unless there is a specific difficulty).

It is the client's responsibility to regularly check whether the desired domain names are available, since the Whois database is not in real time. If OuiHeberg is unable to perform the service ordered due to a default by the client (missing document, correction of erroneous information, etc.), OuiHeberg may cancel the order.

Operation

The OuiHeberg platform is accessible to the public via the Internet worldwide. OuiHeberg guarantees access to the website under conditions of reasonable traffic and access to email inboxes under normal usage conditions.

DDoS attacks

OuiHeberg reserves the right to block the client's user account or access to their website if the client's usage behavior or the behavior of users of the client's website (such as a DDoS attack) harms the operation of the service. OuiHeberg informs the client of the necessary blocking, in advance or as soon as it takes effect, where possible.

Article 323-2 of the French Criminal Code: The act of hindering or falsifying the operation of an automated data processing system is punishable by five years of imprisonment and a EUR 75,000 fine.

Definitions

  • User: Internet user connecting to and using the aforementioned site.
  • Personal information: "Information which allows, in any form whatsoever, the identification of the natural persons to whom it applies, directly or indirectly" (Article 4 of law no. 78-17 of January 6, 1978).

Right of withdrawal and refund

According to Article L.121-28 of the French Consumer Code, the client expressly waives their right of withdrawal. OuiHeberg nevertheless grants a full refund within 14 days of the order, as account credit only. Beyond this period, no refund is possible. Requests must be made via ticket. Domain names are neither refundable nor exchangeable, and no refund is granted in case of misuse of the product or service suspension.

For the purchase of a domain name: The client acknowledges that the domain name constitutes a custom-made or clearly personalized good; they therefore have no right of withdrawal (Article L121-21-8 3° of the French Consumer Code).
