WELCOME TO GEES SERVICES. PLEASE READ THESE GENERAL TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY GeeS SAS sells and produces fun games. They are the main services provided to our users. All our mobile applications are games and can’t be substituted for other uses than playful. The images of people used in our games are used for informational, caricature, parody or pastiche. Likewise, all information that is copyrighted and included in our mobile applications is used for purposes of information, caricature, parody or pastiche. We maintain below a list of our applications to specify cases: IQ Pro "IQ Pro is an application that allows users to determine their g-factors based on the Raven matrices model, and, like all IQ applications, we have used the correlations between g-factor and IQ. will never be as good as those obtained from a professional since the correlation is not perfect, we insist that IQ Pro remains a fun game for those who love logic puzzles. These puzzles were invented by the GeeS team We also believe that there are different types of intelligences that no test will be able to fully understand (even those made by psychologists) and the fact that a game can measure intelligence is a parody itself. Moreover, always for a fun and humorous purpose, we have caricatured the intelligence of certain celebrities by correlating their "IQ" directly with the public image that they send themselves through the media. This estimate is very subjective and does not reflect the private intelligence that these celebrities can have. To illustrate the ranking of IQs of these celebrities, we can use images published on the internet, nicks used by celebrities or sentences pronounced by celebrities. These caricatural information and images may be present in the promotion of our application but will not be for sell. If a celebrity wishes to correct the estimate of the IQ by playing our game or remove his caricature of our game, we will do it on simple request to [email protected]" 1 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES 1.1 These general terms of use (the “Terms”) govern your use of the online games, applications and services, including the online functions of multimedia products, the websites, servers, software and the framework through which these items are provided (collectively the “Services”) currently provided or which will be provided by GEES S.A.S.

Such communications are the sole responsibility of the User in question. 2. Subject to the applicable legal requirements, we do not undertake to monitor the Content, messages and other information made available on the Services by its Users. We may, though are not required to, oversee, monitor or moderate our Services, particularly on website home pages and forums. Some further details of our monitoring of the Services in relation to Minors is set out in Articles 4 and 6. 3. We reserve the right, at its sole discretion, to refuse any username, screen name and/or password you have chosen. 4 ACCESS AND TERMS SPECIFIC TO MINORS 4.1 If you are a minor, you should read these Terms with the help of your parents or guardians. 4.2 If you are a parent or guardian, GEES recommends that you monitor your children’s online activities and check that your children never disclose their personal data without your prior consent. 4.3 We may restrict access to certain Services on age grounds. For such Services, we ask for a parent or guardian’s approval when a child under 12 years old (a “Minor”) wishes to use the Services made available to Minors. When a Minor registers, they must supply the e-mail address of a parent or legal guardian who we will contact to confirm, refuse or modify their child’s access to Services. GEES reserves the right to limit the period during which a Minor may play pending confirmation and activation by their parent or guardian. 4.4 We reserve the right to ask for written proof of consent from a parent or guardian for any User or potential User of the Services we suspect is a Minor. Parental consent applies exclusively to the Service for which it has been granted. 4.5 Certain Services are specially designed for children and enable children to create their own free Account for which GEES collects their username, password, date of birth (or age), country and parent or guardian’s e-mail address. 4.6 Such Services sometimes offer the possibility of paying for a subscription or certain game functions which enable children to participate in more activities on the Services. The subscription services may also allow parents or guardians to manage their children’s account and create their own new player Account. 4.7 Certain Services enable children to create personalised avatars which they can use across the Services, including mini-games and virtual worlds. Children may also use other functions of the Services such as “recommend to a friend” to invite a friend to find out about the Services. Invitation functions enable children to send their friends a single message inviting them to visit the related Service. We will collect the first name and e-mail address of your child (or, failing that, the e-mail address of the parent or guardian) and the e-mail address of their friend for the sole purpose of sending a single message. This information is neither stored nor used for any other purpose and we do not reveal your child’s e-mail address to the recipient. 4.8 Certain Services enable children to receive newsletters. Minors with access to a forum will be able to see other Users’ messages in the forum. On certain forums GEES may operate a ‘safe chat’ system which either filters words and set phrases which we consider unacceptable for Minors, or limits submissions to a list of predefined phrases. This aims to reduce content of a hurtful or insulting nature. When a forum Service is available, “report abuse” links are provided. 4.9 Parents or guardians may de-activate their child’s account at any time by creating a parental account or by sending an e-mail to the administrator of the Privacy Policy, whose contact details are given in the Privacy Policy. 4.10 In all cases, all use of the Services by Minors is the responsibility of their parents or legal guardians whom we assume approve their use of the Services and agree to these Terms. 4.11 As far as is permitted by law, GEES accepts no responsibility regarding any activities which may be conducted by minors without the permission of their parents or legal guardians. If you are a parent or legal guardian and you give your permission for your child to resister for one or other of the services, you thereby agree to the Terms relating to use of the Services by your child. Please consult our Privacy Policy available below for further details. 5 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS 5.1 Intellectual Property Rights are defined as “patents, rights to inventions, copyright and related rights, trademarks, trade names, neighbouring rights, right of publicity, commercial secrets, domain names, rights in get-up, rights in goodwill or to sue for passing off, unfair competition rights, rights in designs, rights in computer software, database rights, topography rights, moral rights, rights in confidential information (including know-how and trade secrets) and any other intellectual property rights, in each case whether registered or unregistered, and including all applications for, and renewals or extensions of, such rights, and all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection in any part of the world”. 5.2 The Services and Content are protected by national and international laws and treaties.
