These terms apply to all PROJETIZ services — construction brokerage and digital communication. They govern the contractual relationship between PROJETIZ and its clients, whether private individuals, associations or businesses.
This English text is provided for convenience only. The legally binding document is the French version: Conditions Générales de Vente et d'Utilisation. In the event of any discrepancy between the two, the French wording prevails. These terms are governed by French law.
These Terms and Conditions of Sale and Use (the "Terms") govern the digital and brokerage services provided by:
Any order or subscription to a PROJETIZ service implies unreserved acceptance of these Terms, which prevail over any other document, save where expressly agreed otherwise in writing.
These Terms apply to all services provided by PROJETIZ, which fall into two distinct activities:
Construction brokerageIntroduction to qualified tradespeople, administrative assistance and personal support throughout the project. This activity is governed by the specific conditions in Part II.
Digital communicationDesign, hosting and maintenance of showcase websites for associations, tradespeople and small businesses, including the automated integration of social media feeds. This activity is governed by the specific conditions in Part III.
The common provisions (Part I) and the final provisions (Part IV) apply to both activities alike. Where the common provisions conflict with the specific conditions, the specific conditions prevail for the service concerned.
Acceptance of these Terms is evidenced, as the case may be, by the client signing the quote or commercial proposal, by payment of a deposit, or by actual use of the services. A copy of these Terms is available at any time on projetiz.com.
The client acknowledges having received the information and advice needed before committing.
Prices are stated in euros, all taxes included. Under the French VAT exemption scheme (art. 293 B of the General Tax Code), no VAT is charged. Payment is made by bank transfer or by cheque payable to David Houzé. Terms specific to each activity (deposit, payment schedule, renewal) are set out in the applicable specific conditions.
Any payment more than 30 days overdue results, after a formal notice that has gone unanswered, in suspension of the services and in a fixed recovery charge of €40 (art. D.441-5 of the French Commercial Code) together with, for business clients, late-payment penalties at the European Central Bank's key rate plus 10 percentage points (art. L.441-10 of the French Commercial Code), and no less than three times the French statutory interest rate; for consumer clients, at the statutory interest rate.
Personal data provided by the client (identity, contact details, billing information) is processed by PROJETIZ solely for the purposes of managing the contract, invoicing and communicating about the service. It is not passed to any third party, subject to legal obligations (accountant, tax authorities, and so on).
Under Articles 15 to 22 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR), the client has the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction and portability, exercisable on simple request to . Data is kept for 10 years from the end of the commercial relationship, in line with accounting obligations.
Where PROJETIZ processes personal data on the client's behalf in the course of hosting and maintaining its site (visitor data, contact forms), that processing is governed by Appendix A of these Terms.
PROJETIZ undertakes to keep confidential the information provided by the client in the course of the service, in particular technical credentials (access codes, tokens, temporary passwords). Such information is used solely to perform the contract. This obligation lasts for the duration of the contract and for 3 years afterwards.
The PROJETIZ trademark is a French word mark registered with the INPI under number 5109745 (filed 3 January 2025, registered 18 April 2025, classes 35 and 37), owned by David Houzé. The trade name, logo and all graphic, textual and technical elements of projetiz.com remain his exclusive property. Any reproduction, representation or use, in whole or in part, without prior written permission is strictly prohibited and exposes the author to the penalties for infringement under the French Intellectual Property Code.
Specific provisions on ownership of the website delivered to the client are set out in Article 20.
TransparencyPROJETIZ may use production-assistance tools, including generative artificial intelligence tools, in designing deliverables (texts, code, page structures, graphic elements). Every deliverable is reviewed and validated by David Houzé, who assumes editorial and technical responsibility for it. No deliverable is handed to the client without this human control.
Protected dataPROJETIZ undertakes not to transmit to any artificial-intelligence service operated by a third party the personal data collected through the client's services (in particular data from contact forms) or any information expressly designated as confidential by the client. Only public information or information intended for publication (company name, business activity, professional contact details, service descriptions, communication content) may be processed with these tools. Processing carried out by artificial-intelligence systems running locally on PROJETIZ's own infrastructure, under its exclusive control and without any transmission to third parties, does not constitute a transmission within the meaning of this article.
The processing of personal data on the client's behalf is governed by Appendix A.
PROJETIZ cannot be held liable for non-performance or late performance resulting from force majeure as understood in French case law, or from any event beyond its control, in particular: failure of the hosting provider (Hostinger), of third-party service providers (Meta, Google), of telecommunications operators, or of domain name registrars (AFNIC).
PROJETIZ reserves the right to amend these Terms at any time. Successive versions are dated and archived. For ongoing contracts, only the provisions accepted when the quote was signed are enforceable against the client, unless a later version is expressly agreed. Clients are notified of changes that materially affect their rights and obligations.
These Terms are governed by French law. In the event of a dispute, the parties will seek an amicable solution before any legal action. Failing agreement, and after any mediation under Article 28, the courts of Bourg-en-Bresse shall have sole jurisdiction over disputes between businesses. Where a consumer is involved, the statutory rules of territorial jurisdiction apply.
Acting as an independent intermediary, PROJETIZ offers private clients the following services:
PROJETIZ does not carry out the works itself. Contracts for the works are concluded directly between the client and the tradesperson. PROJETIZ is not a party to those contracts and cannot be substituted for either party.
PROJETIZ does not currently hold IOBSP (banking intermediary) or IAS (insurance intermediary) authorisation. Any referral to approved partners for financing or insurance is made without direct remuneration to PROJETIZ and without any involvement in the final service.
The brokerage service is free of charge to the private client. PROJETIZ is paid by the partner tradespeople selected following the introduction, in line with the agreements concluded with them, unless a separate contract provides otherwise.
PROJETIZ acts solely as an intermediary. Responsibility for carrying out the works lies exclusively with the tradesperson who signed the quote. PROJETIZ cannot be held liable for disputes arising between the client and the tradesperson in the course of the works, for any defective workmanship, or for any commercial disagreement.
PROJETIZ undertakes to select its partner tradespeople carefully but does not guarantee the outcome of the works, which is the sole responsibility of the tradesperson chosen.
As the introduction service is provided at no charge to the private client, it does not, in principle, fall within the scope of the contracts for consideration covered by Articles L.221-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code.
In any event, where the client expressly requests that the introduction take place before the end of a fourteen-day period, that consent is obtained in writing before any performance; the client then acknowledges that the service is fully performed as soon as contact details have been passed between the client and the tradesperson, and expressly waives the right of withdrawal, in accordance with Article L.221-28, 1° of the French Consumer Code.
Clients are invited to consult the tradespeople's own terms for any question about the right of withdrawal applicable to their work.
Within its digital communication offer, PROJETIZ provides its clients (associations, tradespeople, small businesses) with the creation and maintenance of showcase websites within the following scope, to be confirmed in the signed quote or commercial proposal:
First yearThe fixed price for the first year (covering design, any domain migration, hosting and Facebook integration) is set out in the quote or commercial proposal signed by the client. Unless agreed otherwise, a deposit of 50% of the total is payable on signature, with the balance payable when the site goes live. For contracts concluded off-premises, no payment is however requested or received before the seven-day period provided by Article L.221-10 of the French Consumer Code has elapsed (see Article 27).
Annual renewalFrom the second year, a fixed annual price covers hosting, renewal of the domain name and corrective maintenance. That price is stated in the initial quote and may be reviewed annually, with at least 60 days' notice to the client before the renewal date.
TermThe contract runs for an initial term of one year from the date the site goes live, renewing automatically for further one-year periods. Termination is governed by Article 25.
PROJETIZ undertakes to deliver the site within 15 working days of receiving everything needed to build it: text content, images, the EPP code where a domain is being transferred, and sign-off on the preview mockup.
These timescales depend on the client responding promptly. Any delay attributable to the client (silence, late sign-off, incomplete material) extends the delivery time accordingly and cannot engage the liability of PROJETIZ.
The domain name remains at all times the exclusive property of the client, who is the registered holder with the registrar. PROJETIZ handles the administrative management of the domain on the client's behalf (renewal, technical settings) for the term of the contract.
PROJETIZ undertakes to supply the client with the EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol) transfer code within 5 working days of any written request, with no condition and no additional charge.
On full payment of the first-year price, the client acquires a perpetual, non-exclusive right to use the website delivered, in its entirety (HTML, CSS and JavaScript source code, text written on the client's behalf, and graphic structure).
The rights granted cover all rights that PROJETIZ actually holds in the deliverables. The client is informed that, as the law currently stands, elements generated using artificial-intelligence tools without distinct human creative input may not be protected by copyright; this does not affect the client's right of use or PROJETIZ's undertakings under this article.
PROJETIZ retains authorship of the work and the right to reference it commercially (a credit in the site footer, portfolio, sales material). Third-party libraries, fonts, open-source components and third-party widgets (Meta, Google) remain subject to their respective licences.
On the client's written request at any time, PROJETIZ undertakes to supply a complete copy of the site's source code, in compressed form, within 10 working days.
Hosting is provided by Hostinger International Ltd. (UAB "Hostinger", Lithuania), on high-availability shared servers with a service level agreement (SLA) of 99.9% uptime, as defined by the provider's own terms.
PROJETIZ is responsible for the technical configuration and corrective maintenance of the hosted site. PROJETIZ is not responsible for service interruptions attributable to Hostinger, which fall under the hosting provider's own guarantee.
21.1 — Why the Administrator role is technically necessaryDisplaying the client's Facebook posts automatically on their website requires, under the technical conditions imposed by Meta Platforms, Inc., that PROJETIZ be given the "Administrator" role on the client's public Facebook page. That role is a technical requirement for the widget to work, not a transfer of editorial control.
21.2 — Exhaustive scope of the permissions usedPROJETIZ uses only the following read permissions through the Meta Graph API: pages_read_engagement, pages_show_list, pages_read_user_content. No write action whatsoever — publishing, editing, deleting content, sending private messages or changing page settings — is performed by PROJETIZ from the client's page, save on the client's express written request as part of a separately invoiced service.
21.3 — Undertaking not to act editoriallyPROJETIZ formally undertakes not to publish, delete or modify any content, and not to interfere in any way with the editorial management of the client's Facebook page. Full control of posts, settings, private messages and editorial identity remains exclusively with the client.
21.4 — Removal of the Administrator role during the contractRemoval of the Administrator role granted to PROJETIZ, whether deliberate or accidental — in particular when an association's committee is renewed, when the page manager changes, or during Facebook maintenance — automatically suspends the Facebook widget on the site. PROJETIZ undertakes to restore the service within 5 working days of the role being granted again. No refund is due for that period of suspension, since it originates with the client.
21.5 — Removal on terminationOn expiry or termination of the contract, for whatever reason, PROJETIZ undertakes to remove itself as administrator of the client's Facebook page within 15 days of termination taking effect, and to confirm that removal in writing to the client's email address. That confirmation evidences the complete cessation of PROJETIZ's technical access.
21.6 — Continuity if PROJETIZ ceases tradingShould PROJETIZ cease trading, the client will be notified in writing at least 60 days beforehand. The complete source code of the site will be handed over to the client, and the procedure for reassigning or deleting the Meta access token will be sent to them in writing, so that the service can continue independently of PROJETIZ.
21.7 — Our recommendation to the clientTo guarantee the client's autonomy in all circumstances, PROJETIZ recommends that the client always keep at least two internal administrators (association members or staff) on their Facebook page, separate from PROJETIZ.
So that the service works properly, the client undertakes to:
Corrective maintenance (bug fixes, security updates, minor technical adjustments) is included in the annual price. Support is provided by email to , with a first response within 2 working days.
Functional changes or content work outside the original scope (redesign, additional pages, integration of new services) are quoted separately and charged at an hourly or fixed rate to be agreed.
Automatic renewalThe contract renews automatically for successive one-year periods from each anniversary of the site going live, unless either party gives notice as set out below. The renewal invoice is issued 30 days before the renewal date.
Termination by the clientThe client may terminate by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, or by confirmed email, giving 30 days' notice before the anniversary date. No pro-rata refund is due for the current period, paid in advance, subject to Articles L.215-1 to L.215-3 of the French Consumer Code, which apply to consumer and non-trade clients (in particular associations).
Termination by PROJETIZPROJETIZ may terminate where non-payment persists after a formal notice has gone unanswered for 15 days, or where the client is in serious breach of its contractual obligations. PROJETIZ may also terminate for convenience, giving 90 days' notice.
Renewal notice (consumer and non-trade clients)Under Article L.215-1 of the French Consumer Code, PROJETIZ informs consumer and non-trade clients in writing (personal letter or dedicated email), no earlier than three months and no later than one month before the deadline for declining renewal, of their right not to renew the contract. Failing such notice within those time limits, the client may terminate the contract free of charge at any time from the renewal date; amounts paid in advance for the period after termination are then refunded pro rata (Art. L.215-3).
Who benefitsA fourteen-day right of withdrawal from the conclusion of the contract applies to: consumer and non-trade clients (in particular associations) for any contract concluded at a distance or off-premises, and, under Article L.221-3 of the French Consumer Code, business clients with five employees or fewer, for any off-premises contract whose subject matter falls outside their main business activity.
How to withdrawWithdrawal is exercised by any unambiguous statement sent to or using the model form attached to the quote. The model withdrawal form required by Article L.221-5 is provided to the client with the quote or commercial proposal.
Early performanceIf the client expressly requests, in writing, that performance begin before the withdrawal period ends, the client may still withdraw; the client then owes the price corresponding to the service already provided at the date of withdrawal, in proportion to the total agreed price (Art. L.221-25). The site is not put online before the period ends, unless expressly requested by the client.
Off-premises contractsIn accordance with Article L.221-10 of the French Consumer Code, for any off-premises contract, PROJETIZ receives no payment or deposit before seven days have elapsed from the conclusion of the contract.
At the end of the contract, for whatever reason, PROJETIZ undertakes to:
The client is responsible for migrating the site to a new provider or host. No technical assistance beyond handing over the items listed above is owed, unless a further service is agreed under a separate quote.
Under Articles L.612-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, any consumer client may refer, free of charge, any dispute with PROJETIZ to a consumer mediator for amicable resolution.
The contact details of the competent consumer mediator are provided to consumer clients in the contractual documents they receive (quote or commercial proposal), and upon any written request sent to .
Referral to the mediator is only possible after a prior written attempt to resolve the dispute directly with PROJETIZ.
Partial invalidityShould any provision of these Terms be declared void under a statutory provision or a final court decision, it shall be deemed unwritten and shall not invalidate the remaining provisions, which shall continue to have full effect.
No waiverThe fact that PROJETIZ does not rely on a given provision at a given time shall not be construed as a waiver of its right to rely on it later.
Assignment and substitution of a legal entityPROJETIZ is currently operated as a sole trader by David Houzé. PROJETIZ reserves the right to substitute for that sole trader any legal entity it may form or control (in particular a simplified joint-stock company, in France or abroad), to which all rights and obligations under these Terms and under ongoing contracts would transfer by operation of law. Such substitution changes nothing in the services, prices or guarantees agreed with the client; the PROJETIZ trademark, trade name and continuity of service are maintained. The client is informed in writing and the substitution does not give the client a right to terminate. The client further authorises PROJETIZ to assign or subcontract all or part of its obligations to a qualified partner, under its own responsibility.
Address for serviceFor the performance of these Terms, the parties elect domicile at the addresses shown on the quote. Any notice between the parties must be given in writing (registered letter or email with acknowledgement of receipt).
Entire agreementThese Terms and the signed quote constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any prior exchange, oral or written, on the same subject.
For website hosting and maintenance services (Part III), PROJETIZ acts as a processor within the meaning of Article 29 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, while the client remains the controller of the personal data collected through its site. This appendix forms an integral part of these Terms.

Nature of operationsCollection, transmission, temporary storage, deletion.
Data subjectsSite visitors, the client's prospects and customers.
Categories of dataIdentity (surname, first name), contact details (email, telephone), free-text message content, technical connection data (IP address, server logs).
