Horsemeeting undertakes to post the User's advertisement on the site, on the appropriate page and for the period of time chosen by the User, starting from the date specified by the User.

This lead time is needed to allow Horsemeeting to review the advertisement. Nevertheless, it is expressly stated that this review concerns only the form and not the content of the advertisement and does not in any way constitute a validation of the accuracy of the content. Since it concerns only the formulation of the advertisement, review is intended only to ensure that the content is clear and precise. Horsemeeting therefore reserves the right to correct the formulation of the advertisement if it is not clear or if it contains errors of spelling and/or grammar. Horsemeeting also reserves the right to crop or recentre photos supplied by the User.
The User retains the right to update "horse or pony" advertisement.
Horsemeeting reserves the right to cancel without prior notice and without indemnity all advertising with content that does not correspond to the chosen site page or category, that infringes the restrictions listed below or that can be considered illegal, immoral or damaging to the rights of others, notably copyright, without prejudice to the right of Horsemeeting to seek indemnification for damages suffered as a result.
Users are responsible for any transactions completed through the site with no recourse to Horsemeeting. Specifically, Horsemeeting does not in any way guarantee conformity of an advertisement text or photograph with the sale object or the proposed service. Advertisements are created and published under the sole responsibility of the User.
The User guarantees ownership of the right to reproduce photos and videos posted on Horsemeeting.
The User gives Horsemeeting the right to reproduce advertisements as a tool for the commercial promotion of the Horsemeeting site.

Mandate
If the User places an order for an advertisement, as an intermediary - that is, in the name of and for the account of an advertiser - he must declare, under his own responsibility, that he is familiar with the applicable provisions of Law N° 93-122 of January 29, 1993, otherwise known as the "Law Sapin".
In this case, the User Buyer must satisfy Horsemeeting that all legal obligations have been met, those applying to the User and those applying to the advertiser. The User must specifically declare having received written authorisation from the advertiser to act on his behalf, with terms of remuneration. The User Buyer agrees, furthermore, to furnish, on the Order Form, under Billing, the e-mail address of the advertiser, so that Horsemeeting can communicate a copy of the invoice to the advertiser, as the "Law Sapin" provides. Nevertheless, it is still expressly understood that the User will pay the necessary fee upon placement of an order.
All orders placed by intermediaries, upon receipt by Horsemeeting, will be acknowledged, before posting of the advertisement, by a Purchase Order, a professional discount of 15% calculated on the net fee after application of the potential reduction outlined in the paragraph "Decreasing prices" (below).
Material to provide
All technical elements and electronic documents provided by the User must meet technical specifications defined by Horsemeeting.
The User will provide:
Horsemeeting may be used to produce advertising visuals for prices estimated in advance (cf. article 5.).
The advertising visual is created, produced and posted under the exclusive responsibility of the User.
The User consequently guarantees that the furnished advertising material conforms to:
The User guarantees that the advertising material to be posted is not violent, pornographic, immoral, offensive, threatening, injurious, defamatory, disloyal, counterfeit or, more generally, is not illicit or damaging to third parties, specifically, their intellectual property rights.
The User, consequently, guarantees Horsemeeting against all recourse from third parties deriving from the content of the posted advertising.
Horsemeeting agrees to post the advertising document provided by the User as of the date and for the duration of the period selected by the User, pending full payment by the User of the price for the service ordered. Nevertheless, Horsemeeting is entitled, in any event and at its own discretion, without indemnity to the User and without justification, to refuse to post the ordered advertising if it appears to transgress the restrictions listed above or if it appears to be illicit, immoral or infringing on the rights of others - specifically, their intellectual property rights - without prejudice to the ability of Horsemeeting to seek compensation for resulting damages.
Advertising will not be posted until it has been reviewed by Horsemeeting. It is, however, expressly stated that this review will not in any way constitute a validation of the accuracy and legality of the content. Review is intended specifically to ensure that the advertisement respects the rules listed above and that it is written in clear and precise terms. Horsemeeting therefore reserves the right to ask the advertiser to modify the content or form of the advertising.
If the time period chosen by the advertiser is not available, the User is advised when the Order is placed and is invited to choose another date or time period.
Horsemeeting is in no way obliged to produce results and cannot take responsibility for the success or effectiveness of advertising on its site.
Horsemeeting is not committed exclusively to a particular User and cannot be held responsible if another User offers competing products or services on the Horsemeeting site.
The "My Account" box will inform the User of the number of times visitors to the site have clicked on his advertisement.
5. OTHER FEE-PAYING SERVICES: STUDIO HORSEMEETING
Horsemeeting can supply, on demand and according to prior estimates established on a case-by-case basis, other services such as website creation to order, logos, advertising visuals, visuals for the press, advertising brochures, DVDs, CDs, etc.
The User undertakes to pay the fee for services ordered. In any case, services are payable when they are ordered, for the period of time specified by the User.
Payment may be made by Credit Card (the User's bank account is debited at the time of the Order) or by cheque in the name of Horsemeeting sent by mail. In the latter case, Horsemeeting will not register the Order nor furnish the service until the cheque is received.
In case of non-payment or inability to pay, Horsemeeting has the right to suspend all subscription-based paying and free services to the User.
Necessary banking information payment is obtained not by Horsemeeting but by the bank charged with collecting the secure payment. Horsemeeting does not have access to this financial information. All Bank Card information is protected by state-of-the-art security systems for the prevention of fraud.
