General Conditions of Use and Privacy Policy

Welcome to the SG Photographie website, dedicated to showcasing my photographs and sharing my experiences. By browsing this site, you agree to these terms of use and the terms and conditions for managing personal data.

1. Purpose of the site

This site is a non-commercial showcase site, intended to share my photos with visitors. No commercial activity or paid services are offered. It is a space for exhibition, discovery, and exchange around photography.

2. Access and registration

Access to the site content is free.

However, some features, such as the ability to comment on photos, are reserved for users with an account.

Registration is free and open to any adult or person authorized by their legal representative.

The user agrees to provide accurate information when registering and not to impersonate a third party.

3. Contribution Rules (Comments)

Registered users may comment on photos. Comments must be respectful, courteous, and not violate the law.

In particular, the following are prohibited:

• insulting, defamatory or discriminatory remarks,
• hateful, sexual or violent content,
• spam or disguised advertising.

Comments are subject to moderation. Repeated abuse may result in a user account being suspended or deleted.

4. Intellectual property

All photographs published on this site are the exclusive property of their author (unless explicitly stated otherwise).

Toute reproduction, modification, diffusion ou utilisation sans autorisation écrite préalable est interdite.

You can share links to pages on the site, but not the images themselves.

5. Personal data

Personal data may be collected when you create an account or interact with the site. This includes:

• your first and last name (or pseudonym),
• your email address,
• the content you publish (comments).

This data is used only to enable account management, the publication of comments, and to ensure the proper functioning of the site.

No personal data is sold, transferred or communicated to third parties.

Your rights

6. Cookies and browsing data

The site only uses cookies that are strictly necessary for its proper functioning.

These are mainly:

• internal cookies (or local storage) used to memorize the identifiers of the photos you have already seen, for the sole purpose of counting views.

No third-party advertising or tracking cookies are used.

It is therefore not necessary to obtain specific consent upon entering the site, in accordance with current regulations.

The site implements reasonable technical measures to secure data and prevent unauthorized access. However, no system is infallible and the user is encouraged to remain vigilant, particularly regarding the choice of their password.
