Article 26 - Release Promotion Service ("Boosts")

26.1 — Purpose and description of the service

The site offers Users with a publisher account a paid service to boost the visibility of their releases (hereinafter "Promotion" or "Boost"). The sole purpose of this service is to increase the visibility of a release that has been previously published on the site, in accordance with the terms and conditions described in this article.

Three types of Promotions are offered, each with distinct objectives and operating mechanisms:

26.2 — "Visibility" Promotion

The "Visibility" Promotion allows the User's release to appear in sections dedicated to sponsored content on the site. The relevant placements are as follows:

  • Explore page — "Highlights" section: up to 3 promoted releases displayed in a dedicated slider;
  • Search bar — sponsored suggestions: up to 5 promoted releases displayed in the dropdown menu when the search bar is opened, before any user input;
  • Search page — "Sponsored" sidebar panel: 1 promoted release;
  • Feed page — "Sponsored" sidebar panel: 1 promoted release;
  • Profile pages (profile, community, hypes, likes) — "Sponsored" sidebar panel: 1 promoted release per page.

In addition to these dedicated placements, a "Sponsored" badge with a bookmark icon is displayed on the promoted release's card wherever it appears on the site (feeds, calendar, planning, search results, etc.), allowing visitors to identify it as sponsored content.

The User expressly acknowledges and accepts that:

  • The display of their release in these sections is based on a random selection mechanism among all active "Visibility" Promotions at the same time. As the number of available slots is limited, the promoted release is not guaranteed to be displayed on every page load.
  • The system applies relevance-based prioritization: releases whose category matches the interests of the user viewing the site are displayed first. Remaining slots are filled with promoted releases from other categories. This mechanism aims to maximize the relevance of recommendations and does not constitute discrimination.
  • The number of "Visibility" Promotions that can be active simultaneously is not capped. Consequently, the effective display frequency of each promoted release varies depending on the total number of active Promotions during the same period.
  • No minimum number of displays (impressions) is guaranteed by the site publisher.

26.3 — "Stand Out" Promotion

The "Stand Out" Promotion gives the User's release a distinctive visual badge (star icon and "Featured" label) displayed on the release card across all feeds on the site. It also allows site visitors to filter search results to display only releases with this badge.

The User expressly acknowledges and accepts that:

  • This type of Promotion is exclusively visual and functional (badge + filter). It does not confer any positioning advantage in feeds or search results. The promoted release retains its natural chronological position.
  • The visibility of the badge depends on the traffic of the pages where the release appears. No guarantee of audience or number of views is provided.

26.4 — "Back on Top" Promotion

The "Back on Top" Promotion allows the User's release to appear at the top of the navigation and search feeds on the site (notably the news feed and search result pages). This mechanism artificially brings the release to the top of results, regardless of its actual publication date and regardless of the temporal filters applied by the viewing user.

The User expressly acknowledges and accepts that:

  • On the news feed and search result pages, the number of dedicated top-of-feed slots is limited to one (1) per page load. When several "Back on Top" Promotions are active simultaneously, the release displayed is determined through a prioritization mechanism followed by random selection.
  • The prioritization system for the top-of-feed slot works as follows: (a) in "categories" mode (news feed and search result pages), if the viewing user filters by category, a release whose category matches is displayed first; otherwise, a release from another category is selected; (b) in "following" mode (news feed only), a release whose publisher is followed by the viewing user is displayed first; otherwise, another promoted release is selected.
  • Within each prioritization tier, the selection of the displayed release is weighted by a proximity score computed from the promoted release's release date. Releases whose release date is imminent (within a window from seven (7) days before to three (3) days after the release date) receive the maximum score. Beyond this window, the score progressively decays to a floor score (reached at most at sixty (60) days before or fourteen (14) days after the release date). Releases with an undetermined date are assigned a score equivalent to a release thirty (30) days in the future. For the purposes of this weighting, the release date used is frozen at the time the Promotion is subscribed and is not affected by any subsequent edits made by the publisher to the release date. In the event of a tie between several candidate releases, the final selection is made at random among them.
  • Top-of-news-feed display only applies to the first page and only for upcoming or current releases. Feeds and filters dedicated to past releases are not affected by this boosting mechanism, in order to preserve the relevance of historical content. Releases with undetermined dates are not affected either.
  • A release benefiting from an active "Back on Top" Promotion is exempted from the usual temporal filters ("Today", "Tomorrow", "This week", "This month", etc.) on search pages, in order to guarantee its visibility throughout the duration of the subscribed Promotion.
  • The top-of-feed repositioning is automatically renewed each day for the entire duration of the Promotion. This renewal occurs at 00:01 AM (server time) and requires no action from the User.
  • In the event of a textual search performed by the viewing user (entering a keyword), the relevance of results to the query takes precedence over the "Back on Top" boosting mechanism. Promoted releases are then sorted according to their relevance to the searched term.
  • No minimum number of displays is guaranteed.

26.5 — Prerequisites for subscription

To be eligible for a Promotion, a release must:

  • Be published and visible on the site at the time of subscription;
  • Not be the subject of another active Promotion at the time of subscription. Only one Promotion may be active per release at any given time.

The site publisher reserves the right to refuse or cancel any Promotion on a release that does not meet these conditions.

26.6 — Duration and activation

The Promotion takes effect either immediately upon payment confirmation, or at a later date chosen by the User at the time of subscription (hereinafter "Scheduled Promotion").

The duration of the Promotion is freely chosen by the User at the time of subscription, within a range of one (1) to ninety (90) days. The User may either select a predefined duration via the shortcuts proposed on the order page, or define a custom duration using the dedicated selector. The end date is calculated by adding the chosen duration to the actual start date of the Promotion.

The User is informed that any subsequent modification to the promoted release (change of category, date, content) does not affect the ongoing or scheduled Promotion, which continues to produce its effects until its term.

26.6bis — Scheduling and rescheduling the start date

The User may schedule the start date of their Promotion up to ninety (90) days after the payment date.

As long as the Promotion has not started (i.e., as long as the scheduled start date has not been reached), the User may modify this date from their "Studio" area, subject to the following conditions:

  • The new start date must be between the day after the modification and ninety (90) days after it;
  • The new Promotion period must not overlap with another active or scheduled Promotion on the same release;
  • The duration of the Promotion remains unchanged; only the start date (and consequently the end date) is modified.

Once the start date is reached, the Promotion becomes active and the date can no longer be modified. Activation is performed automatically by the system and requires no action from the User.

The ability to schedule or reschedule the start date does not constitute a right to a refund in any way. The conditions of Article 26.8 (refund policy) apply in full to Scheduled Promotions.

26.7 — Payment and invoicing

Payment is made exclusively by credit card through the Stripe secure payment platform. The applicable price is the one displayed on the order page at the time of subscription, inclusive of all taxes. An invoice is automatically generated and made available to the User in their "Studio" area.

The price of each Promotion is calculated dynamically based on the duration selected by the User and the type of Promotion chosen. The price per day is subject to a degressive pricing scheme: the longer the duration, the lower the per-day price. The total amount payable, expressed in euros inclusive of all taxes, is displayed in real time within the subscription interface, before any validation by the User.

The price of each Promotion cannot be lower than one (1) euro inclusive of all taxes, regardless of the duration chosen. Amounts are rounded according to a step specific to each type of Promotion. The User acknowledges having taken note of the final, exact and exhaustive price before validating their order, in accordance with Article L.112-1 of the French Consumer Code.

26.8 — Refund and cancellation policy

In accordance with Article L.221-28 of the French Consumer Code, and given the nature of the service (digital service whose execution begins immediately after payment confirmation), the User expressly waives their right of withdrawal at the time of subscription.

Accordingly:

  • No refund will be issued, whether the Promotion has been fully used, partially used, or canceled by the User.
  • The User may cancel an ongoing Promotion from their "Studio" area. Cancellation takes effect immediately and irreversibly. The release ceases to be promoted upon cancellation. No refund, even partial, will be granted for remaining days.
  • In the event that the promoted release is deleted or the User's account is deactivated during the Promotion period, the Promotion is automatically terminated without any right to a refund.

26.9 — Moderation and removal

The site publisher reserves the right to suspend or remove any Promotion, without prior notice and without compensation, in the following cases:

  • The promoted release violates these Terms and Conditions, applicable law, or public decency;
  • The promoted release has been unpublished or made invisible by the User or by a moderator;
  • A payment dispute (chargeback, opposition, fraud) is identified on the associated transaction;
  • The User's account is subject to suspension or deletion.

26.10 — No guarantee of results

The Promotion service constitutes an obligation of means and not of results. The site publisher implements the technical mechanisms described in this article to increase the visibility of the promoted release, but in no case guarantees:

  • A minimum number of displays, impressions, views, or clicks;
  • A permanent or exclusive positioning in the relevant sections;
  • An increase in interactions (likes, hypes, comments) or traffic to the promoted release;
  • The absence of competition from other Promotions active during the same period.

The User acknowledges that the effective visibility of their promoted release depends on factors beyond the site publisher's control, including the number of competing Promotions, site traffic, visitor preferences, and the selection algorithms described above.

26.11 — Service evolution

The site publisher reserves the right to modify the technical characteristics of the Promotion service at any time (number of slots, selection algorithms, prioritization criteria, display interfaces), without such modifications giving rise to any right to refund or compensation for ongoing Promotions. The User will be informed of any substantial modification by any appropriate means.

26.12 — Audience data and performance measurement

As part of the Promotion service, the site publisher collects and processes audience measurement data related to the Promotions displayed, for the purposes of performance measurement and statistics reporting to Users who have subscribed to a Promotion.

Data collected:

  • The number of displays (impressions) of each Promotion;
  • The number of clicks on each Promotion;
  • The user identifier (for authenticated visitors) or a pseudonymous session identifier (for non-authenticated visitors);
  • The display source (page consulted: news feed, Explore page, search, profile, etc.);
  • The date and time of each display or click.

The pseudonymous session identifier is generated from a non-identifying technical fingerprint (a combination of the session identifier and the browser user agent, processed through a cryptographic hash function). It does not allow the user concerned to be directly or indirectly identified.

Purpose of processing: this data is used exclusively to:

  • Provide the publisher of the promoted release with the number of views and clicks obtained by their Promotion, accessible from their "Studio" area;
  • Perform deduplication of multiple displays by the same visitor within a limited time window (in order to avoid overestimating counters);
  • Detect and exclude self-displays (a publisher viewing their own Promotion).

Legal basis: this processing is based on the legitimate interest of the site publisher and the User who has subscribed to a Promotion, to measure the performance of the service rendered, in accordance with Article 6.1.f of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Retention period: the detailed data (timestamped events) is retained for a maximum period of one hundred and eighty (180) days, after which it is automatically deleted. The aggregated counters (total number of views and clicks per Promotion) are retained as long as the Promotion exists in the database, for historical and statistical purposes.

User rights: in accordance with the GDPR, any user may exercise their rights of access, rectification, erasure and objection regarding the data concerning them by contacting the site publisher at the contact details indicated in the legal notices. For more information on the processing of personal data, the user is invited to consult the Privacy Policy of the site.
