Terms and conditions of use

These general conditions of use (the “GCU”) may be modified at any time by YMSD. It is your responsibility to be aware of and to keep informed of any modifications or additions. If you do not agree with these terms and conditions of use, please do not use the Site. Otherwise, use of the Site will signify your agreement to these GCU.

The GCU contain all the rules that you must comply with in order for your advert to be referenced, and therefore published, on the www.coquinland.com website (the “Site”), the purpose of which is to present and promote erotic establishments to an informed public.

Failure to comply with these Terms and Conditions may result in your ad being rejected or dereferenced, i.e. removed from our site.

Placing an ad is subject to the stipulations of these GTCU. Any ad or message that does not comply with the GCU will be deleted. Paid advertisements are subject to the same rules and will not be reimbursed if they are removed from the Site. This list is not exhaustive and we reserve the right to remove any content without warning or notification. Such removal may also result in suspension or withdrawal of access to the Site.

A. Presentation of the Site

The Site is an Internet site and a mobile application listing places using several criteria and services (location, nature of the site or establishment, services, etc.).

B. Best practices

The text of the ad must describe the services of the ad. Advertisements containing general or ambiguous text concerning the services offered by the establishment will not be accepted. You may not simultaneously place the same advertisement on the Site several times for the same establishment. Please note that we authorise the publication of identical advertisements when the advertiser operates several establishments.

All advertisements published on the Site must specify the SIREN number of the legal entity operating the establishment or providing the services. This obligation also applies to associations and self-employed entrepreneurs. If your association does not have a SIREN number, we invite you to request one from INSEE. We do not publish any advertisements submitted by “private individuals” carrying out their activity in a non-professional manner.

C. General prohibitions

Any advertisement or comment containing elements of text (words, expressions, sentences, etc.) which appear to be contrary to legal or regulatory provisions, accepted standards of behaviour, the rules for the publication of our Site or which are likely to disturb or shock readers will be refused, and therefore not referenced on our Site, without this giving rise to any right to compensation on the part of the advertiser.

YMSD cannot control the integrity of the advertisements published or their legality (particularly with regard to the ownership of the images used in the advertisements or the materiality of the services actually offered by the advertiser). The Advertiser will therefore remain solely responsible for the content of the advertisements published and the materiality of the services.

Each user of the Site may consult all of the advertisements, exchange information via the Site and give their opinion via comments and a rating. However, YMSD reserves the right to moderate or delete certain comments if it appears that they have been written in a malicious, misleading or deceptive manner or if their content is insulting or defamatory.

Finally, any advertisement referring to sexual services falling within the scope of prostitution, soliciting or pimping will be prohibited. If it appears that such services are being provided (whether occasionally or not), in any form whatsoever, on one of the advertiser’s establishments or by one of the advertiser’s employees, we reserve the right to delete all of the advertiser’s advertisements without prior notice or compensation, without prejudice to any legal action that may be taken by us against the advertiser for having used the Site to promote illegal activities

D. Unauthorised content

It is forbidden to place an advertisement :

  • Exclusively in foreign language. Advertisements must be written in French (legal obligation imposed by law no. 94-345 of 4 August 1994). When a foreign term does not have an equivalent in French, it must be circumscribed in a sufficiently precise manner so as not to mislead the user of the Site;
  • Containing terms or descriptions unrelated to the content offered;
  • Contains a premium rate telephone number;
  • Of a political, sectarian, discriminatory or sexist nature, or linked to organisations or persons responsible for crimes against humanity, etc.

Article 225-1 of the French Criminal Code defines discrimination as any distinction made between individuals on the grounds of their origin, sex, disability, genetic characteristics, lifestyle, sexual orientation, gender identity, membership or non-membership, real or assumed, of a particular ethnic group, nation, race or religion. The offence of discrimination, incriminated in article 225-2 4° of the French Penal Code, is punishable by three years’ imprisonment and a fine of 45,000 euros.LISTING
