All contrary condition made by the subscriber will then, except express acceptance, be inopposable to GeneaNet, whatever the moment it is known.
The fact that GeneaNet does not prevail at a given moment any of the present Special Conditions of Use, cannot be interpreted as renonciation to further prevail to any said conditions.
Article 5 : Subscription
 5.1. Presentation
When subscribing to "GeneaNet Collections", the purchaser will become automaticcally member of GeneaNet in the sense of article 2 of GCU of GeneaNet. Subscription and identification conditions on the GeneaNet website, and in particular on "GeneaNet Collections", are described in article 4.2 of GCU.
Consultation of results for "GeneaNet Collections" necessitates a subscription to this Service.
After identification and selection of operations desired, the subscriber makes payment after leaving his coordinates and accepting the GCU and the present Special Conditions of Use.
According to dispositions of Law number 2000-230 dated 13 March 2000 relative to adaptation of right of proof on computer technologies and relative to electronic signature, this positive act of « double click » constitutes irrevocable acceptance by the customer of the GCU and present Special Conditions of Use. This acceptance can only be changed within the limits foressen in the present Special Conditions of Use.
The « double click » associated to the identification procedure constitutes an electronic signature. The latter has same value between the parties as a manual signature.
Un e-mail de suivi de souscription d'abonnement résumant l'inscription est envoyé automatiquement à l'abonné (ci-après désigné l’ « Abonné »). En cas de saisie erronée de l'adresse e-mail, la date effective de début d'abonnement est la date de validation.
Après vérification et validation du paiement, un e-mail confirmant l'autorisation d'accès au service "Les Collections GeneaNet" est envoyé à l'Abonné.
Chaque consultation d'un document ou d'une donnée d'une collection GeneaNet requière l'utilisation d'un nombre variable de points. Pour chaque collection, le nombre de points nécessaires à la consultation finale du document ou de la donnée est clairement indiqué à l'Abonné avant qu'il ne valide sa sélection. Toute sélection validée l'est définitivement et le nombre de points correspondant à cette consultation est alors automatiquement déduit de son capital de points. Si l'Abonné ne dispose pas du nombre de points suffisants pour valider sa sélection, il lui est alors proposé d'acquérir un pack supplémentaire de points parmi les packs disponibles.
Il est précisé qu'aucun document ne sera envoyé à l'Abonné, ni par e-mail, ni par voie postale, la consultation du document se faisant exclusivement en ligne.
Les fac-similés (reproductions certifiées conformes) sont réalisés et livrés à partir de documents originaux de référence. Quelques documents anciens peuvent présenter des défectuosités (taches, etc..) qui ne nuisent pas à leur compréhension ni à l'intérêt de leur contenu. Aucune réclamation ne pourra être recevable à ce sujet, GeneaNet privilégiant dans ce cas, l'information à l'esthétique des documents, souvent anciens.
