The User acknowledges, however, that the Company may verify by any means it deems useful the User Content after its online publication, either directly or by engaging a moderator.
Users thus acknowledge the Company's right, at its sole discretion, to modify or delete any User Content that appears to it to be contrary to the editorial line of the Site and/or the Applications, to applicable laws and regulations and in particular to the prohibitions referred to in this article, or that has been reported to it as such by the judicial authority. An alert system is made available at all times to any person wishing to report the publication on the Sites and/or the Application of any content contrary to the provisions of these GTU, and more generally to applicable laws and regulations of which they are aware. To exercise this right, Users may submit any complaint to the Company by using the online form available by clicking on the "Report" button (in the Application) or on "Contact us" (in the Application and on the Sites) by transmitting all information they deem useful for this purpose. The Company draws the attention of Users to the fact that all their statements may be used in the context of legal actions. The provision of false, inaccurate or misleading information may engage the civil and criminal liability of Users.
- Hypertext Links
The establishment of a link to the Sites and/or the Applications without the express prior authorization of the Company is prohibited. In any event, hypertext links referring to the Sites and/or the Application must be removed upon the first request of the Company. Consequently, the following are particularly prohibited:

- Liability
7.1. Company Liability
The Company undertakes to make its best efforts to offer Users accurate and verified information, but cannot guarantee the accuracy, completeness or timeliness of the information disseminated on the Sites and/or on the Application. The Company undertakes to make its best efforts to ensure the availability of the Sites and/or the Application to Users at all times. Nevertheless, the Company cannot be held liable in the event of partial or total unavailability of the Sites and/or the Application, for any reason whatsoever. The User cannot in any event claim difficulty in accessing the Sites and/or the Application to access information in violation of these GTU.
THE SITES AND THE APPLICATION, AS WELL AS THEIR CONTENT, ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE". TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE MANDATORY LAW, NEITHER THE COMPANY, NOR ITS AFFILIATES, NOR ITS SUPPLIERS WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR VIRUS-FREE, ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS GIVEN REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, INFORMATION OR CONTENT OF THE SITES, THE APPLICATION AND THEIR CONTENT. GEOLOCATION DATA, MAP DATA, DIRECTIONS, ITINERARIES OR OTHER FEATURES OR CONTENT INCLUDED IN OR ACCESSIBLE VIA THE SITES AND/OR THE APPLICATION MAY BE INACCURATE OR INCOMPLETE AND MAY DEPEND ON VARIOUS FACTORS EXTERNAL TO THE COMPANY. THE USER MUST RELY ON THEIR OWN JUDGMENT AND TAKE REAL-WORLD CONDITIONS INTO ACCOUNT. THE USER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN CONDUCT AND MUST COMPLY WITH LOCAL LAWS WHEN USING THE SITES AND THE APPLICATION, AND NOTABLY THE GUIDANCE SERVICE. THE SITES AND THE APPLICATION AND THEIR CONTENT, AND NOTABLY THE GUIDANCE SERVICE, ARE NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN SITUATIONS WHERE PRECISE DATA IS NECESSARY OR WHERE INACCURATE OR INCOMPLETE DATA MAY LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT, PROPERTY DAMAGE, DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY.
The Company's liability cannot be engaged by Users of the Sites and/or the Application due to indirect and/or unforeseeable damages suffered by the User. Indirect damages are considered to include, notably, loss of data, time, profits, turnover, margins, loss of orders, customers, operations, revenue, commercial actions or damage to brand image, expected results and third-party actions. The Company cannot furthermore be held responsible in case of investment orders or decisions based on information contained on the Sites and/or the Application or accessible through the Sites and/or the Application. Finally, the User is informed of the risks inherent in using the internet, particularly in terms of security flaws in data transmission and acknowledges having the necessary skills and means to access and use the Sites and/or the Application. In no case can the Company be held responsible for these risks and their detrimental consequences, whatever their extent, for the User.
7.2. Liability for Interactive Services
The User acknowledges that any User Content published via the Interactive Services remains the responsibility of its author and cannot in any way be assimilated to any advice, opinion or comment of the Company, its partners, affiliated companies or employees. The editorial responsibility of the Company, as technical service provider hosting User Content published via the Interactive Services, cannot therefore be engaged by reason of the publication of User Content within the framework of the provision of Interactive Services. Consequently, the Company is not subject to a general obligation to monitor User Content it stores, nor to a general obligation to search for facts or circumstances revealing illicit activities, nor to a warranty obligation regarding the accuracy, integrity or honesty of User Content published on the Sites and/or the Application. Consequently, the Company's liability cannot in any case be engaged due to activities or User Content if the Company did not have actual knowledge of their illicit nature or of facts and circumstances making this nature apparent or if, from the moment it acquired such knowledge, it acted promptly to remove such data or make access to it impossible.
7.3. Liability for Third-Party Services
The Sites and/or the Application may contain links to third-party sites such as rental companies, hoteliers, hotel booking platforms offering a number of services, as well as content or services offered directly to Users by third parties, restaurateurs, weather information providers, etc. (hereinafter "Third-Party Services"). The Company exercises no control over the providers of Third-Party Services and therefore assumes no responsibility for the quality, availability or content of Third-Party Services. The Company will therefore in no way be responsible for any damage, direct or indirect, that may occur during the use of Third-Party Services by the User.
- Intellectual Property
8.1. Company Content
Elements belonging to the Company, such as the Sites, the Application, and their content such as trademarks, designs, models, images, sound and video clips, texts, photos, logos, graphic charter, software, the search engine, databases, taken as a whole or individually, without this list being exhaustive, are the exclusive property of the Company. These GTU do not entail any transfer of any kind of intellectual property rights over the elements belonging to the Company for the benefit of Users. Consequently, without this list being exhaustive, the following are unlawful:
- any adaptation, making available to the public at its request or not, distribution, re-broadcasting in any form whatsoever, networking, public communication of all or part of the Services, works, performances, trademarks and all elements protected or susceptible of protection by intellectual property law reproduced on the Sites and/or the Application;

- any action having the effect of creating an analogy or confusion in the public's mind between the Services of the Sites and/or the Application and third-party products or services. To this end, the User undertakes to take all necessary measures to protect said rights with respect to all third parties and, in particular, will maintain in good condition all proprietary notices that will appear on all data, information and more generally on the elements consultable on the Sites and/or the Application or communicated to them by the Company;
- fraudulent access to and maintenance in an automated data processing system;
- fraudulent deletion, modification or addition of data in this system;
- obstructing this system.
As such, any use not expressly authorized in writing and in advance by the Company is prohibited and constitutes infringement. Any User who acts in violation of these GTU is subject to civil or criminal prosecution, which notably punishes infringements of copyright, neighboring rights, database producers' rights, as well as automated data processing systems.
8.2. User Content
User Content remains the property of its authors or their rights holders. Users grant the Company a non-exclusive and free license to represent, reproduce, exploit, modify, adapt, notably in terms of size, definition, framing, black and white conversion, attenuation, transparency, archive, translate User Content, or integrate it into other content, on all paper or digital media, notably the Sites, the Application, and all media aiming to promote the Company's products and/or services, as well as all other Company products, known and future, for promotional or commercial purposes, and by all means, worldwide and for the duration of the literary and artistic property rights attached to the User Content concerned and current and future international conventions. The Company will make its best efforts to respect the moral rights of authors, and in particular the right to paternity of authors of photographic works. The User declares that they have all intellectual property rights, whether intellectual creations belonging to them or for which they have ensured that they have all necessary prerogatives, notably intellectual property, allowing them to accept these GTU and to comply with all their stipulations. As such, the User guarantees the Company the peaceful enjoyment of the User Content they publish on the Sites and/or the Application. The User therefore undertakes to assume full responsibility for any action, claim, demand, eviction, recourse or opposition from any third party invoking an intellectual property right or an act of unfair competition and/or parasitism that would have been infringed due to the publication of the User Content concerned. Consequently, the User will bear all damages to which the Company would be condemned by reason of an act of infringement or unfair competition or parasitism resulting from the publication of the User Content concerned, and this, as soon as the conviction pronouncing them becomes enforceable, as well as the costs of any nature incurred by the Company to ensure its defense, including legal fees. The User will likewise indemnify the Company for all damaging consequences suffered by it due to disturbances in its peaceful enjoyment. Non-compliance with the provisions of this article may lead to the withdrawal of the disputed User Content, notwithstanding any other legal action and/or damages that the Company would be entitled to claim.
8.3. Third-Party Content
Elements belonging to third parties, such as websites, trademarks, designs, models, images, sound and video clips, texts, photos, logos, graphic charter, software, without this list being exhaustive (hereinafter "Third-Party Content"), are the exclusive property of their author and are protected as such by copyright, trademark law or any other right recognized by current legislation. These GTU do not entail any transfer of any kind of intellectual property rights over Third-Party Content to the benefit of Users unless expressly authorized by the Company or its author. Consequently, the User is prohibited from infringing these rights in any way whatsoever. Users acknowledge, insofar as Third-Party Content expressly refers to the websites on which it is available, that no confusion of any kind whatsoever is possible and that these elements and content cannot reasonably be presumed to be the property of the Company.

The Personal Account and the Owner Account may contain simple or deep links to partner sites of the Company or third parties, with the latter's authorization for deep links.

Terms of Use for the Guidance Service on the Application
Presentation of the Guidance Service:
The GPS guidance feature allows the User to reach a destination by displaying the navigation map as well as detailed instructions and voice guidance. This feature is accessible after downloading the Application or performing an update via Google Play or Apple App Store. The GPS guidance offered by Truckfly is a paid subscription driving aid tool, dedicated to heavy goods vehicle drivers. It notably allows drivers to calculate itineraries taking into account the specificities of their vehicle (category, dimensions, GVW, etc.) and their load. The navigation map adapts its style to day or night driving and displays traffic status on the route. GPS guidance integrates speed limits, which are permanently displayed with a visual alert in case of speeding. The User will also be alerted to danger zones on the road and real-time traffic events (traffic jams, roadworks, accidents, road conditions, closures...). Navigation is periodically refreshed to provide a more accurate estimate of remaining arrival time and traffic status. In the event that the User leaves the route, a new route is recalculated taking into account traffic and the initially chosen route if several alternative itineraries were offered.
- Purpose
These terms of use of the Company, as well as those of the Company's provider (Here) available here: https://legal.here.com/fr-fr/terms/here-end-user-terms, govern any use by the User of the Guidance Service offered by the Company on the Application (feature not available on the Sites). By the sole fact of using the Guidance Service offered on the Application, the User explicitly and unreservedly accepts these conditions as well as Here's terms of use, which may be modified by the Company or by Here at any time. Failing agreement by the User to these terms of use and/or to those of Here, the User is not authorized to use this service.
- Personal Information
The conditions and procedures for processing personal data collected by the Company during the use of the Guidance Service are governed by the provisions of the Privacy Policy
- Conditions of Use of the Guidance Service
The Company offers Users the possibility to use the Guidance Service and grants them the right to use it exclusively for private and non-commercial purposes. Any collective and/or commercial use is strictly prohibited. The User undertakes to use this Service in accordance with the regulations in force. The use of the Guidance Service requires the creation of a Personal Account by the User (in accordance with the Terms of Use for the Personal Account and the Owner Account).
The use of the Guidance Service also requires the User to update the Application as soon as an update is made available on the Apple App Store or Google Play.
THE USE OF THE GUIDANCE SERVICE ALSO REQUIRES THE USER TO ENTER ALL THE CHARACTERISTICS RELATING TO THEIR VEHICLE AND THEIR LOAD. MISSING OR ERRONEOUS INFORMATION MAY RESULT IN INCORRECT ROUTE CALCULATION (THE ROUTES PROPOSED BY THE SERVICE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE INFORMATION COMMUNICATED BY THE USER). THE COMPANY ENCOURAGES THE USER TO EXERCISE MEASURE AND CAUTION IN THEIR DRIVING BEHAVIOR.
- Compliance with Road Safety Regulations
IT IS REMINDED TO THE USER THAT IT IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE ROAD SAFETY AND TRAFFIC REGULATIONS, AS WELL AS ROAD SIGNS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR LOCATION. IT IS ALSO REMINDED TO THE USER THAT IN FRANCE, THE USE OF A HANDHELD PHONE WHILE DRIVING IS PROHIBITED (ARTICLE R412-6-1 OF THE HIGHWAY CODE). ALSO PROHIBITED, SINCE JULY 1, 2015, IS THE WEARING IN THE EAR OF ANY DEVICE CAPABLE OF EMITTING SOUND BY THE DRIVER OF A VEHICLE IN CIRCULATION, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ELECTRONIC DEVICES CORRECTING HEARING LOSS. EARPIECES ALLOWING PHONE CALLS OR LISTENING TO MUSIC ARE PART OF THIS PROHIBITION. THE USER REMAINS FULLY AND ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH THE HIGHWAY CODE AND APPLICABLE ROAD SAFETY PROVISIONS, REGARDLESS OF THEIR LOCATION, AND THE COMPANY'S LIABILITY CANNOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, AND UNDER NO PRETEXT, BE ENGAGED IN THIS REGARD.
- Liability
THE COMPANY AND ITS SUPPLIERS MAKE THEIR BEST EFFORTS TO OFFER USERS ACCURATE AND VERIFIED INFORMATION, BUT CANNOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, GUARANTEE THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS OR TIMELINESS OF THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE GUIDANCE SERVICE ON THE APPLICATION. THE GUIDANCE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE". TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE MANDATORY LAW, NEITHER THE COMPANY, NOR ITS AFFILIATES, NOR ITS SUPPLIERS WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR VIRUS-FREE, ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, IS GIVEN REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, INFORMATION OR CONTENT OF THE APPLICATION AND IN PARTICULAR THE GUIDANCE SERVICE. Geolocation data, map data, directions, itineraries or other functionalities or content included in or accessible via the Sites and the Application may be inaccurate or incomplete and may depend on various factors external to the Company. The User must rely on their own judgment and take real-world conditions into account. The User is responsible for their own conduct and must comply with local laws when using the Sites and the Application, and notably the Guidance Service. The Sites and the Application and their content, and notably the Guidance Service, are not intended for use in situations where precise data is necessary or where inaccurate or incomplete data may lead to an accident, property damage, death or personal injury. The User declares to be aware that the operation of the Guidance Service is partly based on information provided to the Company and its providers by Users, as well as by third-party contractors, notably in what concerns the indication of speed limits, navigation, road traffic status and other reminders of traffic regulations. Consequently, the liability of the Company and its provider cannot in any case be engaged in the event that the information provided by Users or third parties is incomplete, outdated or erroneous. The Company cannot in any case be held responsible for any alleged infringements by the User. The Company undertakes to make its best efforts to ensure the availability of the Guidance Service on the Application at all times. Nevertheless, the Company cannot be held responsible in case of partial or total unavailability of the Guidance Service on the Application, for any reason whatsoever. It is expressly agreed that the operation of the Guidance Service is notably based on technologies developed and exploited by third parties over whom the Company has no means of intervention. Thus, the Company will not be required to provide the Service in case of failure of the GSM network, UHF network or GPS network, notably, or in case of force majeure understood notably but not limited to strikes, bad weather, wars, embargos, failures of the electrical network, the Internet network, satellites, failures of mobile phone operators to fulfill their obligations. Furthermore, the Service may be temporarily unavailable on instruction or requisition from authorities. The User declares to be aware that the GSM data networks (2G, 3G, 4G, 5G...) of mobile phone operators are constantly evolving, that there are also areas where GPS satellite signals are not detectable (tunnels, canyon effects in cities and mountains), and that it is therefore possible that certain areas of the territory are not covered by these networks and that access to the Service may be disrupted there. The User cannot in any event claim any difficulty in accessing the Guidance Service on the Application to justify any complaint against the Company. In any event, the Company's liability cannot be engaged notably (but not limited to), due to the unavailability of the Guidance Service, its operation, the itinerary chosen and indicated by the Guidance Service, the indicated travel time, the traffic status and the announced toll prices, etc.
The Company's liability cannot be engaged by Users of the Guidance Service due to indirect and/or unforeseeable damages suffered by the User. Indirect damages are considered to include, notably, loss of data, time, profits, turnover, margins, loss of orders, customers, operations, revenue, commercial actions or damage to brand image, expected results and third-party actions. The Company cannot furthermore be held responsible in case of investment orders or decisions based on information contained on the Sites and/or the Application or accessible through the Sites and/or the Application. In any event, the Company's liability under the Guidance Service (paid) shall not exceed the amount of sums paid by the User during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to liability. Finally, the User is informed of the risks inherent in using the internet, particularly in terms of security flaws in data transmission and acknowledges having the necessary skills and means to access and use the Application. In no case can the Company be held responsible for these risks and their detrimental consequences, whatever their extent, for the User.
