COPYRIGHTS AND REPRODUCTION RIGHTS OF CONTENT POSTED ONLINE

Reproduction rights of public or official documents

Since the publication of Ordinance No. 2005-650 of June 6, 2005 relating to freedom of access to administrative documents and the reuse of public information, this information may be reused for purposes other than those for which it was produced, and particularly information subject to public dissemination. These documents intended for public distribution are not covered by any copyright and may therefore be reproduced freely. The graphics, the iconography as well as the editorial content remain the property of the State, and, as such, are subject to the protection provided by the Intellectual Property Code.

Article L.122-5 of the Intellectual Property Code lays down the principle that, “when the work has been disclosed, the author may not prohibit the dissemination, even in full, by the press or television, for current information, speeches intended for the public delivered in political assemblies, (…), as well as in public meetings of a political nature and official ceremonies”.

This is therefore the case in particular for speeches and public interventions which are similar to an exception to copyright. Similarly, public or official documents such as official press releases are not covered by any copyright, and may therefore be reproduced freely.

If the reproduction of this content in part or in full is authorized, it must be accompanied by the mention of the name of the author, the source, and possibly a link to the original document online on the site. The mention “© Caribaea Initiative – www.merci-project.com” must therefore be indicated.

All other content on the website is covered by copyright. Any reproduction is therefore subject to the author’s agreement under Article L.122-4 of the Intellectual Property Code.

The information reproduced must only be for personal, associative or professional purposes; any distribution or use for commercial or advertising purposes is prohibited.

Request for authorization to reproduce content

The request must specify the content concerned as well as the publication or website on which it will appear. Once this authorization has been obtained, the reproduction of content must comply with the following principles:

  • free distribution

  • Mandatory statement: “© Caribaea Initiative – merci-project.com – rights reserved”. This mention will lead directly to the content thanks to a hypertext link
  • insertion of an icon representing the website (logo of the Merci project)

The organizations under supervision as well as the other ministries are exempted from this request for authorization, except for the insertion of the mention: “© Caribaea Initiative – www.merci-project.com – reserved rights”. This mention will point directly on the content thanks to a hypertext link.
