3. Intellectual property

The texts, books, extracts, photographs, montages, illustrations, covers, graphic elements and other original content published on lexplorateurinterieur.lu are created by Guy Wathieu and protected by copyright.

Guy Wathieu holds the rights to this content.

Any reproduction, adaptation, translation, distribution, public display or public use, in whole or in part, requires his prior written authorisation, except where expressly permitted by law.

Short quotations are permitted when they comply with legal requirements and clearly identify the author, the title of the work and the source.

Trademarks, trade names, logos and content belonging to external platforms and services remain the property of their respective owners.

4. Links to external websites

The website contains links to services operated by third parties, including Amazon and LinkedIn.

When visitors use one of these links, they leave lexplorateurinterieur.lu. The external service then applies its own terms of use, privacy policies and cookie rules.

Guy Wathieu does not control the operation or content of these external services.

Any order for a book is concluded directly between the visitor and the relevant platform.

When a person sends an email, they voluntarily provide their email address, the content of their message and, where applicable, their name and attachments.

This information is used solely to read the message, reply when a response is considered appropriate and follow up the exchange.

This processing is based on Guy Wathieu’s legitimate interest in receiving and handling messages directly related to his books and his work as an author.

Emails are not sold, rented or used for advertising purposes.

The recipients of this information are Guy Wathieu and, only to the extent necessary, the technical service providers responsible for transmitting and hosting the email service.

Email addresses, email content and any attachments are retained for a maximum of twenty-four months from the last exchange. They are then deleted, unless longer retention is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim.

6. Technical data and security

The hosting provider may process technical data strictly necessary for the operation and security of the website, in particular to deliver pages, detect errors and prevent malicious access.

7. Cookies

When accessed by the public, lexplorateurinterieur.lu does not place any non-essential cookies on visitors’ devices.

It does not use advertising cookies, profiling cookies, external analytics tools or any mechanism intended to track a visitor’s browsing from one website to another.

No cookie consent is therefore requested.

Cookies required for private access to the WordPress administration area concern only the website administrator and are not used to track visitors.

No personal data is used for profiling or for automated decision-making that produces legal effects concerning the visitor.

9. Accuracy of information and website availability

Guy Wathieu endeavours to provide information that is as accurate and current as possible.

Prices, book availability and terms offered by external platforms may change independently of the website.

The website may experience temporary interruptions, slowdowns or loading delays, particularly during maintenance, an update, a technical incident or for security reasons.

Despite reasonable precautions taken to protect the website, Guy Wathieu cannot guarantee that it will always be free from viruses or other malicious software introduced through an external act or technical compromise.

Guy Wathieu shall not be liable where an interruption, slowdown or delay in the availability of the website results from an external, unforeseeable and unavoidable event beyond his control.

Guy Wathieu shall not be responsible for the content, operation or practices of external websites.

These provisions do not exclude or limit any liability that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
