Last update date: October 18, 2024.

SECTION 1: DESCRIPTION OF THE DAILYMOTION SERVICE

1.1. Dailymotion (“Dailymotion”, “we”, “us” or “our”) operates an original, free video hosting service that enables users to upload, store and share videos, and access and view those shared videos in association with advertising. The Dailymotion Service is made up of the Dailymotion website, the Dailymotion video player that is embeddable onto any website or app (the “Video Player”), the Dailymotion apps and web-apps as accessible (online or offline) via any current or future device capable of distributing the Dailymotion website and/or the Video Player and more generally, any Dailymotion products, content, channels, software, data feeds, services and functionality (“Dailymotion Service”).

1.2. By accessing and/or using the Dailymotion Service, without being logged into a Dailymotion Account, You (“You” or “Your” as applicable) will be hereinafter a “Viewer.” As a Viewer, You will only have the ability to access, view or share videos available on the Dailymotion Service, but will not be able to benefit from all the other features available on the Dailymotion Service. A “Dailymotion Account” means the video content storage space on the Dailymotion Service which is dedicated to a User (as defined below) on the Dailymotion Service that can be created by signing up for a Dailymotion Account via www.dailymotion.com.

1.3. If You want to be able to upload videos and access some other features of the Dailymotion Service, You will need to first create a Dailymotion Account and have Your email address validated (see Section 1.4.) at which point You will be a “User.” Note however that after having created Your Dailymotion Account and until You have validated Your email address according to the process defined below, You will be an “Account Applicant” and will not be able to upload videos or access the other features of the Dailymotion Service.

1.4. Information provided by You to create Your Dailymotion Account must be accurate and complete. In order for Dailymotion to verify that the email address You provided is valid, You will receive an email from Dailymotion asking You to validate Your email address.

1.5. By creating a Dailymotion Account, You agree that You alone will be responsible (to Dailymotion and to others) for all activity that occurs under Your Dailymotion Account. The user ID and password which are necessary to access Your Dailymotion Account and the features associated with it are Your sole responsibility and it is Your obligation to keep them confidential. You agree to immediately notify Dailymotion of any unauthorized use of Your User ID, password or any other breach of Your Dailymotion Account security.

1.6. As a User, You will also have the ability to access some additional features from the Dailymotion Service, and if and when You have accepted the terms of the Dailymotion Partner Program, You will then be a “Partner” and will have the opportunity to monetize Your Content uploaded on Your Dailymotion Account.

1.7. If You are a User or a Partner, You may notably upload video files (that must be compliant with the Terms) on the Dailymotion Service. Any and all elements posted through Your Dailymotion Account on the Dailymotion Service are deemed to be “Your Content”.

1.8. As a User or a Partner, You are expected to be an active part of the Dailymotion community. As such, You also acknowledge that if Your Dailymotion Account remains inactive for a significant period of time, Dailymotion reserves the right to delete, reclaim or remove Your Dailymotion Account in its sole discretion with or without prior notice to You.

1.9. Any and all individuals or entities accessing the Dailymotion Service may be referred hereafter as a “Visitor,” regardless of their status (i.e. be they a Viewer, Account Applicant, User or Partner).

1.10. The Dailymotion Service offers access to videos in association with advertising. Presence of advertisement is an essential feature of our Services. Use of technical or other means aiming to prevent the presence of ads (so-called “ad-blockers”) is explicitly prohibited and its detection may lead to blocking Your access to our Service.

In particular, Your video Content is stored in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). If You decide to make Your video Content available outside of the EEA, for technical reasons inherent to video delivery technology, a temporary cache copies of extracts of Your video Content may also be stored outside of EEA.

Your Comments are stored outside the EEA, namely in the USA.

As any other business, Dailymotion uses third parties’ services to carry out its operations. Some of these services require processing of Your data outside of the EEA. For example, we use non-EEA cloud storage to store information pertaining to the delivery of advertising shown to You. For more details on how Your personal data is processed outside the EEA please refer to our Privacy Policy.

The technical constraints related to the international presence of the Dailymotion Service do not allow us to store data in a single country. Dailymotion has implemented, or has insured that its service providers have implemented, industry-standard systems and procedures aiming at ensuring the security and confidentiality of Your data, protection against anticipated threats or hazards thereto and unauthorized access to or use thereof. Nevertheless, if You do not want Your data or data concerning You to be stored outside of Your country of residence, then do not use the Dailymotion Service.

In particular, when Your Content contains Third Parties’ personal data, You shall ensure and warrant Dailymotion thereto, that You have all necessary authorizations and consents (including, when applicable, data subjects’ consent) prior to the use of the Dailymotion Service and the resulting transfer.

8.5. As a User, You have the ability to upload Content (which includes the title and description of the video) incorporating personal data. We remind You that You remain responsible for the Processing of the personal data incorporated therein and that Dailymotion acts only as a Data Processor of this data, as these terms are defined by applicable laws on the protection of personal data. In this respect, as a Data Controller, You commit to respecting the Applicable Data Protection Laws, and especially to lawfully collect and process this data and to answer data subjects requests. In particular, You warrant that You have obtained and will maintain all required consents from third-parties whose personal data is incorporated in Your Content as necessary to allow us to provide the Dailymotion Service. You may refer to the provisions set out in Appendix A of the Terms in order to learn more about Your status as a data controller under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for the personal data of data subjects residing in the European Economic Area that may be incorporated into the Content that You upload on our Service.

As a hosting service provider, Dailymotion cannot guarantee that no inappropriate or illegal content will disturb your experience. Indeed, Dailymotion is neither legally required nor able to monitor and control each and every piece of content uploaded onto the Service. Therefore, we encourage our Visitors to notify us of any Prohibited Content on the Dailymotion Service using the methods described in Section II.

Furthermore, Users are formally prohibited from putting online any content that falls into one of the categories of Prohibited Content as defined in Section I, and a violation of this may result in the consequences set out in Section III.

J. Copyright-Infringing Content

Dailymotion prohibits any copyright-infringing content. The distribution of any content reproducing all or part of a work protected by a copyright without the authorization of the author or the person who holds the rights for this exploitation is indeed forbidden.

In particular, it is forbidden for our Users to post online any content including all or part of:

Pre-existing music and/or songs (recordings, soundtracks of films, series, etc.);
Audiovisual works (film, series, video clips, TV show, advertisement etc.),
Dramatic works (play, opera, musical, performance and other live shows);
Graphic and plastic works (painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, design, comics, manga, illustration, graffiti, digital creation, etc.);
Video games; or
Written works (literary works, courses, press articles, poetry collections, etc.);

of which the User is not the author and for the distribution of which no necessary authorization has been obtained.

However, it should be noted that:

The notion of ‘work’ is extremely broad. Indeed, originality of a work is the only condition to access copyright protection, without the merit of the work and/or its destination being relevant. Thus, the User must bear in mind that all content is potentially subject to copyright protection and therefore its exploitation must be authorized;
The exploitation of a work that has fallen into the public domain may remain subject to certain requirements. However, note that:
- It must always respect the moral rights (which remains even after entering the public domain), and
- The exploitation of an adaptation and/or interpretation of the work that has fallen into the public domain remains subject to the authorization of the rights holders of the adaptation and/or interpretation concerned when these latter have not fallen into the public domain; and
That certain uses of protected works may be possible without the authorization of their authors or of the person who holds the rights to such works when they fall within the scope of the exceptions to copyright and/or related rights provided for by the applicable laws and regulations (and in particular in France by articles L.122-5 L and L.211-3 of the Intellectual Property Code, as detailed in our Help Centre at the following address: https://faq.dailymotion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020018900-Exceptions-to-copyright) which must always be interpreted strictly.

Any User who violates the rules set out above and/or encourages their violation is liable to the consequences set out in Section III. For more information on this type of content, you can read our dedicated article on our Help Center.

K. Content infringing other’s rights

Dailymotion prohibits the diffusion of any content that threatens, offends, and/or insults any person and/or infringes on their rights.
In particular, our Users are prohibited from posting any content online:

Participating in any form of harassment, including:
• cyber-harassment of a person or “pack harassment” (i.e. publications by several authors of violent remarks made against the same target), and
• sexual or sexist language or behavior that violates dignity by being degrading or humiliating or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive situation. Sexual harassment is the use, even if not repeated, of any form of serious pressure with the real or apparent aim of obtaining an act of a sexual nature, whether this is sought for the benefit of the perpetrator or for a third party;
Constituting any form of insult, and in particular:
• Using particularly vulgar or offensive language in an insulting manner towards one or more persons, or

Constituting any form of threat, including:
• Presenting threats of blackmail and/or hacking into another person’s account,
• Including any form of threat to a person’s physical integrity and/or property, or

Infringing on the privacy and/or image of a given person;

For more information on this type of content, you can read the dedicated article on the Dailymotion Help Center.

L. Any Other Content Violating Applicable Laws or Regulations

Prohibited Content shall also include any other content in violation of applicable laws and/or regulations.

II) DETECTION AND REPORT OF PROHIBITED CONTENT

As a hosting service provider, Dailymotion has no general legal obligation to monitor the Content uploaded on the Dailymotion Service nor any general legal obligation to investigate facts or circumstances revealing illicit activities but must immediately remove or disable access to any illicit Content after being informed of its existence.

Dailymotion has therefore put in place detection and reporting tools allowing Dailymotion to be aware of the presence of Prohibited Content on the Dailymotion Service.
The presence of Content that may violate the Prohibited Content Policy can be brought to Dailymotion attention by two means:

via the automatic detection devices set up on the Dailymotion Service (A) or;
via Users’ reporting through the reporting tool present near each video; (B) or through contacting Dailymotion by e-mail or by letter (C).

A. Automatic detection devices

The automatic detection device implemented by Dailymotion includes:

List of keywords and short phrases

Dailymotion has put in place a list of keywords and short phrases to prevent the uploading of Content that is clearly contrary to this Prohibited Content Policy. This list is updated every week and takes into account the “Moderation Decisions” made during the previous 6 months.

Thus, when uploading Content to the Service, if a word or short phrase in the comment, title or description of the video being uploaded is present in the above-mentioned list, the Content in question will be forwarded to our moderation team.
The Restricted Mode may be applied to Video Content (as described in Section IV).

Technologies for the protection of copyrighted content

Dailymotion works with two providers of digital fingerprint recognition solutions: Audible Magic for audio detection and INA (Institut National de l’Audiovisuel) for video detection. Whenever a piece of video Content uploaded on the Dailymotion Service matches the digital fingerprint databases of our two providers, the video Content will be automatically removed.

Despite their high efficiency and their innovative character, these technologies require the collaboration of the concerned rightsholders, who must communicate their content to one and/or the other of these companies in order to create the associated digital fingerprints. Dailymotion is at the disposal of rightsholders to help them contact these societies, in order to prevent the future upload of content that the rightsholders have protected in this way.

B. The reporting tool for Prohibited Content

Dailymotion encourages its Visitors to report any Content that may violate the Prohibited Content Policy. These reports allow the Dailymotion Service to remain a safe space for everyone. This is the fastest way for Visitors to report any Content that they believe violates this Prohibited Content Policy. Our team reviews all reported Content 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

1. Video Content Reporting Tool

To report video Content, you need to:

Click on the “Report” button available near each video;

Describe in the dedicated free text field any information that will allow Dailymotion to process the report; and
Fill in your first name and surname(s) (as they appear on an official identity document issued by an administration) as well as your e-mail address. This information will allow Dailymotion to inform the Visitor who has reported the Content of the follow-up given to the report.

It should be noted that it is NOT necessary to have a Dailymotion account to report Prohibited Video Content.

In the event of a report of copyright infringement or infringement of other rights, the Visitor will be redirected to a dedicated form. He must necessarily include the URL address of the reported video. Otherwise, Dailymotion will not be able to process the report.

C. E-mail or postal reports

The presence of Content that may violate the Prohibited Content Policy may also be reported to Dailymotion by e-mail or by letter. In such case, all of the following elements shall be communicated to Dailymotion:

Depending on the status of the author of the report, the elements necessary to process the request will differ. If the author of the report is:
- A physical person: he/she must specify his/her first name, surname(s) and e-mail address;
- A legal person: the legal form and name of the legal person must be specified, as well as an e-mail address for the follow-up of the report; or

If the report is made in the name of a third party, it is necessary to provide Dailymotion with all supporting documents attesting that the author of the report is duly authorized to represent this third party;

A description of the Content reported, and its precise location (URL of the video(s) concerned or the page on which the comment(s) is/are available);
The main reason of the report (by reference to the Categories of Prohibited Content described in Section I of this Policy); and
and, for any report of copyright infringement or infringement of other rights, any documents and/or information allowing to characterize the infringement in question.

Regarding reports of copyright infringement, we remind you that certain uses of protected works may be permitted without the authorization of their authors or of the person who holds their rights when they fall within the scope of the exceptions to copyright and/or related rights provided for by the applicable laws and regulations (and in particular in France by articles L.122-5 L and L.211-3 of the Intellectual Property Code, as detailed in our Help Center at the following address:
https://faq.dailymotion.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020018900-What-are-the-exceptions-to-copyright-and-related-rights).
Before reporting any Content for copyright infringement, it is thus recommended to check whether the use of the protected work in question is permitted under one of these exceptions.
Please note that reports of copyright infringement or infringement of other rights must be made by the owner of the rights concerned or by its duly authorized representative.

Regarding reports from competent EU Member States Authorities in regards to the DSA application, Dailymotion can process the requests in English, as a language broadly understood by a large number of EU citizens, as well as in French.

III) CONSEQUENCES OF NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROHIBITED CONTENT POLICY

A. Moderation actions applicable to the content

If Dailymotion is aware of the uploading of Prohibited Content on its Service, Dailymotion will apply a moderation action adapted to the nature of the Prohibited Content (“Moderation Action”).

The applicable Moderation Actions may impact the:

Availability;
Visibility;
Accessibility to; or
Monetization of Content.

1. Moderation Action affecting the availability of Prohibited Content: removal of Content

Subject to the provisions below, any Prohibited Content will be removed from the Dailymotion Service as soon as Dailymotion is effectively aware of it.

2. Moderation Action affecting the visibility of Prohibited Content: restriction of the visibility of a video

Dailymotion may decide to restrict the visibility of a video and apply an age restriction to any Content which may offend the sensitivity of young audiences.
This Moderation Action will have the effect of placing the video concerned in Restricted Mode.
Such videos cannot (i) be viewed by Visitors having the Restricted Mode activated, (ii) appear in the results of their searches on the Dailymotion platform, nor (iii) be monetized or recommended by Dailymotion.

3. Moderation Action affecting the accessibility of Content: application of a geo-blocking measure

If the concerned Content violates a specific law/regulation in a given country or territory, Dailymotion can implement geo-blocking measures. These measures allow the Content to be made unavailable in a specific country or territories without altering its accessibility in other countries and/or territories.

4. Moderation action affecting the monetization of Content: video demonetization

Dailymotion reserves the right to demonetize video Content that is not suitable for advertising purposes.

B. Appealing a moderation decision

Dailymotion has established an internal appeal mechanism for the decisions taken by its moderation team following the detection and/or reporting of Prohibited Content (“Moderation Decision(s)”). This internal appeal system allows:

the author of a report to contest the Moderation Decision taken following his/her report; and
the User who has put Content online that has been subject to a Moderation Action mentioned in Section III. A of this Policy to contest the corresponding Moderation Decision.

This internal appeal mechanism is available by contacting our Support teams (see Section II.A.C.) or, in certain cases, via a URL link indicated in the e-mails sent by the moderation team to the author of the report or to the User who posted the Content online.
This URL link redirects to an appeal form which must be filled in by providing all the mandatory information required to process such appeal.
This appeal system is open for a period of 6 (six) months from the Moderation Decision.
Dailymotion is committed to processing these appeals quickly and impartially.
If the moderation team considers that the Content subject to the appeal is not illicit nor incompatible with this Prohibited Content Policy, the Content concerned will be maintained or made accessible and visible again on the Dailymotion Service.
On the contrary, if the moderation team considers that the Content that is subject of the appeal is illegal or incompatible with this Prohibited Content Policy, a Moderation Action will be applied to the relevant Content.
The author of the appeal will be informed of the outcome of the appeal as soon as possible via email sent to the address given on the appeal form.
If you consider that a Moderation Decision goes against the law or if you consider yourself a victim of Content put online on the Dailymotion Service, legal recourses are at your disposal (such as filing a complaint or requests for summary proceedings).

C. Repeated Infringement Policy

Dailymotion takes compliance with its Prohibited Content Policy and its general Terms of Use very seriously in order to ensure a safe and respectful viewing environment for its Visitors, Users and Partners.

Thus, there are various procedures, measures and tools that Dailymotion uses to enforce compliance with our general Terms of Use and which might lead us to moderate content posted onto our Service.

If you repeatedly post Content that violates this Prohibited Content Policy, we may restrict certain features associated with your Dailymotion Account or permanently disable your Dailymotion Account under this repeated infringer policy. Please note that additional specific terms are available here in regards to copyright repeated infringements.

In a general manner, each Dailymotion Account has a penalty scoring system associated with it (the “Counter“). Such Counter is set up at zero by default, but any violation of our Prohibited Content Policy or of our general Terms of Use will be accounted against the Dailymotion Account having performed such violation and will make the Counter increase.

The number of penalty points given to a violation depends on the severity of the content that was removed and the context in which it was shared in order to ensure our violations’ accounting system is fair and proportionate (e.g.: hateful content will lead to more penalty points added to the Counter than spam for instance). Some violations such as, for example, terrorist content or child abuse content, will lead directly to the disabling of the corresponding Dailymotion Account, as further described in Section E below.

The accounting of a violation to the Dailymotion Prohibited Content Policy or the Dailymotion general Terms of Use will last for a period of 90 (ninety) days, meaning that unless the Counter of a Dailymotion Account led to its deletion (as defined in the Section E below), a violation will no longer count towards the Counter of a Dailymotion Account after a period of 90 days.

We remind you that you may always appeal every moderation decision taken by Dailymotion through the link that was provided to you in the email informing you of the moderation decision taken against your content.

If an item of content you posted is restored due to an appeal, Dailymotion will take that restoration into consideration and the corresponding violation will no longer count towards the Counter of your Dailymotion Account.

We are currently working on features that will enable us to increase the level of transparency around the measures taken for the safety of our platform, such as features allowing each User to follow the history of violations of our policies or of the Counter associated to a Dailymotion Account.

D. Restricting features

The Counter linked to the violations performed by a given Dailymotion Account might lead to a restriction of the features linked to your account for a certain period of time or even the disabling of such Dailymotion Account at some point, as defined below.

In addition to the Counter linked to a Dailymotion Account, Dailymotion may also take into consideration the weight of the violations to our policies compared to the activity of this account or of the corresponding User in general, and whenever possible the intention of the violation, in order to define the best and most proportionate sanction applicable.

Several different sanctions might be applied for periods of up to several days if the Counter of a Dailymotion Account reaches a certain threshold, including :

Blocking the ability to upload Videos ont such Dailymotion Account;
Excluding Content posted on such Dailymotion Account from the Dailymotion recommendation systems;
restricting the visibility of your Content posted on such Dailymotion Account;
For Partners having the opportunity to monetize their Content, excluding the Content posted on such Dailymotion Account from monetization.

Please note that Your Dailymotion Account might reach another restriction level as soon as your Counter changes as defined in Section C above.

These restrictions generally only apply to the Dailymotion Account in connection of which the Counter has been calculated, but they may also be extended to other Dailymotion Accounts owned by the same User on the Dailymotion Service.

In addition, Dailymotion might restrict the ability of a User to comment on Third Party Videos if the Counter associated to the User’s account is mainly due to comments in violation of the Dailymotion Prohibited Content Policy.

Apart from the disabling of a Dailymotion Account, all the sanctions applied are temporary, meaning that all the restrictions applied will be lifted automatically at the end of the sanction duration announced in the email informing you of such account restriction decision.

For sake of clarity, a restriction applied to a Dailymotion Account will continue until the notified end date of such sanction even if your Counter falls below the threshold in the meantime.

We remind you that you may always appeal every moderation decision taken by Dailymotion through the link that was provided to you in the email informing you of such account restriction decision.

E. Disabling accounts

If the Counter of a Dailymotion Account reaches a critical level, then such Dailymotion Account will be permanently disabled.

Please note that some very severe violations of our Prohibited Content Policy or of our general Terms of Use will lead to the direct disabling of the corresponding Dailymotion Account even if that’s the first time such account commits a violation.

This sanction generally only applies to the Dailymotion Account in connection to which the Counter has been calculated, but it may also be extended to other Dailymotion Accounts owned by the same User on the Dailymotion Service.

If you believe your Dailymotion Account has been deactivated by mistake, we remind you that you may always appeal every moderation decision taken by Dailymotion through the link that was provided to you in the email informing you of such account disabling decision.

F. Abusive reports

Dailymotion encourages its Visitors to report any Content that may violate the Dailymotion Prohibited Content Policy.

While we truly believe these reports allow the Dailymotion Service to remain a safe space for everyone, it is important to note that in some cases, unfounded reports might be considered abusive.

Indeed, unfounded reports done repeatedly and/or reports reasonably suspected to be willfully made to harm the User having posted the reported Content for instance might lead to the refusal of Dailymotion to process the further reports you might make for a certain period of time.

We remind you that you may always appeal every moderation decision taken by Dailymotion through the link that was provided to you in the email informing you of such reporting restriction.

IV) RESTRICTED MODE

“Restricted Mode” is a feature, activated by default, whose purpose is to limit the visibility of videos that may offend the sensibilities of certain Visitors and, in particular, young audiences.
Visitors who have not deactivated the “Hide Sensitive Content” feature located at the bottom of the platform’s homepage will not be exposed to these videos, i.e. videos labelled as “Sensitive Content” (i) when they are uploaded by Users and/or (ii) in the context of a Moderation Action applied by Dailymotion, as mentioned in Section III.A.2.
These videos cannot be viewed by Visitors who have the Restricted Mode activated and will not appear in their search results on the Dailymotion platform.

Any video whose access has been restricted will not be monetized or recommended by Dailymotion.

6. Data Subjects Rights

As a Data Controller, it is Your responsibility to inform Data Subjects about the details of the Processing operations and to respond to their requests relating to the exercise of privacy rights (such as: right to information, access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection and portability) they benefit from under the Applicable Data Protection Laws (“Data Subject Request”).

In this regard:

Dailymotion shall:

In the event that a Data Subject claims that Your Content contains sensitive and/or special Third-Party Personal Data (as defined under the Applicable Data Protection Laws) or that of a minor, You authorize Dailymotion to immediately disable access to Your Content pending Your response to the Data Subject Request.

Note that process applicable to Data Subjects Requests is separate and in addition to any other content removal process described under the Terms (ex. removal of Your Content because it violates copyright law).

You have obtained and will maintain for the duration of Your use of the Dailymotion Service all rights and authorizations necessary to allow us to provide You with the Processing Services including, when applicable, Data Subjects’ consent;
all instructions You transmit to Dailymotion regarding the Processing of Third-Party Personal Data, as described in the present DPA and, in particular, in its Section 3.1. are in conformity with the Applicable Data Protection Laws and, if You act in capacity of a Data Processor for another Data Controller, are compatible with any instructions You have received from such Data Controller. In particular, You warrant that You have been authorized to designate us as a Data Sub-Processor;
the Third-Party Personal Data has been collected and is processed in compliance with the Applicable Data Protection Law;
You have obtained the consent of the Data Subjects or have established an alternative legal basis for the collection and Processing of the said Third-Party Personal Data and You undertake to produce evidence of such consent or legal basis upon a request from Dailymotion, the Data Subjects and/or competent authorities.

To that end, You undertake to defend and indemnify Dailymotion against any and all claims, costs, fines, reasonable attorney fees, or other expenses incurred in relation to the availability on our Service of Your Content integrating Third-Party Personal Data.

8. Audits and Public Authorities Requests

8.1 Audit Requests

To the extent the Processing is subject to the EU Data Protection Law, as a Data Controller, You have a right to audit the Processing activities undertaken by Dailymotion as Your Data Processor within the limitations set forth in this Section.

If You reasonably believe that Dailymotion does not respect one of its specific obligations as Your Data Processor, You may request an audit by submitting a description of this specific suspected failure and an audit request to Dailymotion, using the contact details listed in Section 10 of this DPA. As part of the audit, Dailymotion undertakes to provide You with the information in its possession and strictly necessary to demonstrate the respect of Dailymotion’s obligations as Your Data Processor under this DPA, subject to the respect of Third-Parties’ rights and the security requirements of Dailymotion’s IT systems.

For sake of clarity, You shall not be entitled to receive any information outside of this limited scope of the requested audit. You may request such audit not more often than once per thirty-six (36) months’ period and under the condition that You inform Dailymotion at the latest sixty (60) working days before its planned starting date. Such audit must be performed by an external, qualified and independent third-party auditor at Your expense at Dailymotion’s headquarters and during normal business hours and must be limited to two business days (unless the circumstances do not reasonably allow it to be completed within such time). The auditor must be subject to strict contractual obligations of confidentiality, and the results of such audit must also be treated as confidential information and must be shared with Dailymotion. Dailymotion may object in writing to an auditor appointed by You if the auditor is, in Dailymotion’s reasonable opinion, not sufficiently qualified or independent, a competitor of Dailymotion, or otherwise manifestly unsuitable. Any such objection by Dailymotion will require You to appoint another auditor.

If the audit reveals a non-respect of Dailymotion’s obligations, Dailymotion will take reasonable measures to remedy it or cease the Processing of Your Content. If You are not satisfied with the result of such audit, You may exercise Your right to stop or suspend the use of the Dailymotion Service.

Furthermore, You agree that if during the twenty-four (24) months preceding Your audit request, the matter of Your request has already been subject to another audit initiated by Dailymotion or by a third-party, the sharing of such audit’s results with You will satisfy Dailymotion’s audit obligation under the present Section.

8.2 Public Authorities Requests

In its role as a Data Processor, Dailymotion shall maintain appropriate measures to protect Third-Party Personal Data in accordance with the requirements of applicable data protection Laws and regulations, including by implementing appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect Third-Party Personal Data against any interference that goes beyond what is necessary in a democratic society to safeguard national security, defense and public security.

If Dailymotion receives a legally binding request to provide Third-Party Personal Data to a Public Authority, Dailymotion shall, unless otherwise legally prohibited, promptly notify You and provide You with a summary of the nature of the request. Dailymotion may challenge the request if, after careful assessment, it concludes that there are reasonable grounds to consider that the request is unlawful and may pursue possibilities of appeal and/or seek interim measures with a view to suspending the effects of the request until the competent judicial authority had decided on its merits. It shall not disclose the Third-Party Personal Data requested until required to do so under the applicable procedural rules. Dailymotion agrees it will provide the minimum amount of information permissible when responding to a request for disclosure, based on a reasonable interpretation of the request. For the avoidance of doubt, this DPA shall not require Dailymotion to pursue action or inaction that could result in civil or criminal penalty for Dailymotion such as contempt of court.

9. Transfers of Third-Party Personal Data

9.1. Description of Transfers of Third-Party Personal Data

Operation of the Dailymotion Service:

Dailymotion Service is operated by companies belonging to the Dailymotion group, some of which are located outside the EEA. When your Content includes Third-Party Personal Data, non-EEA Dailymotion entities may process such Personal Data outside the EEA, namely in the USA, Singapore or other territories they operate from. In particular, if Your video containing Third Party Personal data is available in the USA, it is Dailymotion Inc’s USA-based content moderation team that will analyze it if it receives a notification of it allegedly infringing character.

Note that Dailymotion Inc. participates in the Data Privacy Framework. Any transfer of Third-Party Personal Data to Dailymotion Inc. relies on that DPF participation. In the event of either, Dailymotion’s Inc. discontinuing its DPF participation or invalidation of the DPF, any such transfer shall rely on the 2021 SCC, as further detailed hereinbelow.

Storage and Content Delivery:
- Comments: o depending on the territory you access the Dailymotion Service from, You may have a possibility to comment Content available on our Service. In addition to them being stored in the EEA Your Comments may be stored in the USA on servers used by our service provider assisting us in operating the comment feature. Consequently, if your Comments contain Third-Party Personal Data, that data is transferred to the USA.
- Other Content: o Dailymotion stores Content (other than Comments) in the EEA either directly (on servers owned by Dailymotion) or through intermediary of its services providers (cloud-storage service providers). If You decide to render Your video Content available outside of the EEA, for technical reasons inherent to video-delivery technology, a temporary cache copies of extracts of Your video Content may also be stored outside of the EEA. A cache copy is created on servers close to a viewer. Its creation is inherent to video-delivery technology and serves to reduce the latency, i.e. enables a viewer to see a video faster by shortening the time between the request to see a video and the appearance of that video on the viewer’s screen. When Your Content includes Third-Party Personal Data, creation of cache copies of extracts of Your Content on non-EEA servers may result in a transfer of such Personal Data outside the EEA (if the actual copies of extracts contain Third-Party Personal Data).
Service Features: Dailymotion Service enables various Content related features, ex. statistics, customer support, content search or recommendation. The data thus processed is stored on servers owned by Dailymotion and by our services providers (ex. cloud-storage service providers) listed in clause 5.2. above, and is analyzed using Dailymotion’s and our service providers’ tools. When Your Content includes Third-Party Personal Data, use of Content related features may result in transfer of such Personal Data outside the EEA. For example, if the title of Your Video that You rendered available in the USA includes somebody’s else name, the content search tool using USA-based resources will process that Personal Data.

9.2. Legal Tools Applicable to the Transfer of Third-Party Personal Data

9.2.1. Transfer of Third-Party Personal Data from You to Dailymotion

To the extent our provision of the Processing Services to You results in the transfer of the Third-Party Personal Data incorporated in Your Content from the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or Switzerland to a Third Country, the 2021 SCC, as complemented below, shall be applicable to such transfer.

It is agreed by the Parties that the 2021 SCC are complemented as follows:

The data exporter: You
- Data exporter identity: as indicated within Your Dailymotion Account
- Data exporter role: Controller or Processor (if acting on behalf of a third party Controller)
The data importer:
- The Dailymotion entity You contract with, namely:
  - If You are established in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom or Switzerland: Dailymotion SA, 140 boulevard Malesherbes, 75017 Paris, France, contact details: dpo@dailymotion.com, or
  - If You are established in any other territory: Dailymotion Inc., 150 W 22nd Street, Floor 12, New York, NY 10011, USA, contact details: legal@dailymotion.com;

9.2.2. Transfer of Third-Party Personal Data from Dailymotion to Sub-Processors

In the event that Dailymotion transfers Third-Party Personal Data to a Third Country through a third-party Sub-Processor, Dailymotion will ensure that such transfer takes place only in the presence of legally adequate safeguards such as, for example, integration of the 2021 SCC within contracts concluded with such Sub-Processors, obtaining a commitment from such Sub-Processors to enter into 2021 SCC with their own Sub-Processors (if any).

When the Personal Data is transferred from the EEA, the UK or Switzerland to an US data importer participating in the “Data Privacy Framework” (or any replacement thereof.) such transfer relies on that data importer’s participation in the DPF.

9.2.3. Transfer Assessment

As of the last update of the Terms, Dailymotion has conducted an assessment of the applicable laws and regulations or practices of the Third Countries of destination where the Processing of Third-Party Personal Data may occur.

Dailymotion is designed as a video-sharing platform, meaning that the videos which may contain Third Party Personal Data are public by default, and therefore accessible to anyone.

Taking into account the categories of Third-Party Personal Data and the purposes Dailymotion process that Data on Your behalf, Dailymotion has no reason to believe that the laws and practices in any Third Country of destination applicable to the Processing of Third Party Personal Data, including any requirements to disclose Third Party Personal Data or measures authorizing access by a Public Authority (e.g. a government agency, or law enforcement authority, including judicial authorities), prevent Dailymotion from fulfilling its obligations under this DPA. However, if Dailymotion reasonably believes that any existing or future enacted or enforceable laws and practices in a Third Country of destination applicable to the Processing prevent it from fulfilling its obligations under this DPA and may represent a threat to Third Party Personal Data’s security and integrity, it shall promptly notify its Users, including You, and it will use reasonable efforts to make available to the affected Users a change in the Services. If Dailymotion is unable to make available such change, You may remove Your Content at any time from the Dailymotion Service.

As such, Dailymotion has determined that the risks of infringing such Third-Party’s privacy associated to such transfer to a Third Country is limited and consequently, that the existing measures in place shall be sufficient to ensure the efficiency of the protection of the rights of the data subjects whose Third Party Personal Data is related to.
