Intellectual Property

The Site taken as a whole, together with each of the elements comprising it (in particular, texts, diagrams, tree structures, applications, animations, images, photographs, illustrations, videos, graphic or editorial representations, logos, etc.) constitute intellectual works protected by the Intellectual Property Code as well as by all other forms of applicable international legislation.

All content, website or other having a hypertext link which links to the Site or to any of the components comprising it are not under the control of RITZ PARIS, and the latter consequently declines all responsibility (particularly editorial responsibility) concerning access to these sites and their content.
