COPYRIGHT AND REPRODUCTION RIGHTS OF ONLINE CONTENT
Reproduction rights of public or official documents
Since the publication of Ordinance No. 2005-650 of June 6, 2005, on access to administrative documents and the reuse of public information, such information may be reused for purposes other than those for which it was produced, especially publicly disseminated information. These public documents are not subject to copyright and may be freely reproduced. However, design elements, illustrations, and editorial content remain the property of the State and are protected by the French Intellectual Property Code.

Similarly, public or official documents such as press releases are not protected by copyright and may therefore be freely reproduced.

If content is reused partially or in full, it must be accompanied by the name of the author, the source, and, where applicable, a link to the original content on the site. The following mention must be included: “© EXTRUGENE – extrugene.com/”.
