As appropriate, the confirmation email refers to the Subscriber's agreement to the provision of digital content that is not presented on a physical medium.

6. Obligations of the Subscriber

The Subscriber understands that any fraud constitutes a breach of these General Terms and Conditions of Subscription that may result in the suspension or termination of their Subscription at the initiative of @uctionspress under the conditions of Article 17.
In the context of taking out a Subscription, the Subscriber undertakes to provide accurate personal information. They undertake to keep the information concerning them up-to-date by notifying @uctionspress of any modification thereto and, in particular, any change of address. @uctionspress will take account of the change indicated as soon as possible.
@uctionspress cannot be held liable in the event of incidents related to obsolete or misinformed information on the part of the Subscriber.
The Subscriber warrants that no information transmitted infringes the rights of third parties, nor is it contrary to the law and regulations in force.

@uctionspress will inform the Subscriber of this modification of prices prior to the renewal of the Subscription. The price of the Subscription is firm and non-revisable during the period of the Subscription.

8. Payment

The Customer may also opt for online payment on the Site using their credit card. The data is then sent directly to the payment service provider of @uctionspress, Ingenico, which manages the online payment. The Customer's data is then verified and the amount of the payment is debited immediately after the validation of the Subscription.
In both cases of payment by credit card, whether online or via the Subscription Department of @uctionspres , this banking data is then encrypted by service providers, certified PCI-DSS through its own services. This is an international security standard whose objectives are to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of cardholder data and so secure the protection of card and transaction data. In the event that the Subscriber does not want their Subscription to be tacitly renewed, @uctionspress does not possess and does not keep the said data, their collection and processing being governed by the conditions specific to the Ingenico payment service provider.
In the context of an automatic renewal of the Subscription: @uctionspress keeps an encrypted version of the banking data to be able to ask its payment service provider for a payment on the anniversary date of the Subscription. The encrypted version is the identifier that allows the Ingenico service provider to request payment.
The Subscriber warrants to @uctionspress that it has the necessary authorisations to use the method of payment chosen by them, during validation of the Subscription Form.
Only the Subscriber is responsible for payment by credit card. @uctionspress is not responsible for payment issues related to operation of the e-commerce service. It cannot be held liable for fraudulent use of the means of payment opted for.
The Subscriber may also pay the amount of their Subscription by transmitting an RIB (banking details) to @uctionspress with a debit authorisation. However, this banking information is only kept for the time it takes to make the transaction.
Payments made by the Subscriber, regardless of the method of payment used, are only considered final after actual receipt of the amounts due by the Subscriber to @uctionspress. No additional costs, exceeding the costs incurred by @uctionspress for using a means of payment will be charged to the Subscriber.

9. Failure to pay by a SUBSCRIBER
