Moreover, the name "TheContillery", as well as the names, logotypes and trade names of the companies of TheContillery are registered trademarks protected in each of the countries in which the relevant companies are set up.

1.3 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS TO CREATIONS PROPOSED BY WEBSITE USERS WHO ARE EMPLOYEES OF THECONTILLERY
TheContillery may publish on this website creative briefs inviting users of this website who are employees of TheContillery to propose original, unpublished creations (hereafter the "Creations"). By registering on this website and proposing Creations, whether in response to briefs published by TheContillery or on their own initiative without any brief, TheContillery employees (hereinafter the "Authors") shall progressively assign to TheContillery all intellectual property rights to the creations of which they are the Authors as they send the said creations to the website.
The rights of reproduction, performance and adaptation regarding the Creations shall thus be assigned for the full period of copyright protection in France and abroad under the French Intellectual Property Code and international copyright conventions.
Such assignment shall allow TheContillery or its affiliates to reproduce, perform and adapt the Creations (images and/or texts) in any format, on any data carriers and via any media, whether known or presently unknown, anywhere in the world, for any TheContillery clients and in any communication campaign disseminated by any means whatsoever.
In the event that the intellectual property rights (copyrights and similar rights, particularly rights to trademarks, designs and models) are related to preliminary versions and are not the property of the Author, the Authors hereby agree to specify the source of the borrowed or adapted works in a note attached to the submitted Creation. The Authors shall mention the name of the author(s) of the first work incorporated into their Creation (e.g., the name of the composer of a musical work) and, if possible, the year of original publication of the said work. In that way, if TheContillery wishes to produce the Creations for the purposes of one of its advertiser clients, TheContillery may negotiate with the relevant rights-holders in order to obtain the authorizations and assignments of rights necessary for unchallenged exploitation of the Creations.
The above-mentioned assignment of rights shall be granted exclusively to TheContillery and the companies thereof and shall remain valid even in case of the cessation, for any reason, of the employment contract or contract for services between the Authors and the TheContillery. Consequently, the participants agree to refrain from granting any rights of the same kind to third parties.
