Terms of use of Bobine

Last updated: 11 November 2026
Privacy policy of Bobine

These terms of use govern the use of Bobine (bobine.chapplications.com), where an event's guests photograph it with their phone. Signing in as an organizer or joining an event means accepting these terms.

Article 1. Publisher

Bobine is published by Christophe Hurpeau EI (Chapplications), whose details are given in the legal notice:

Legal notice

Article 2. Service and access

The organizer signs in with a six-digit code sent to their email address, without a password; the account is created when they first request a code. They create their events and may add co-organizers, who have the same rights except deleting the event.

Guests join an event without an account, from its QR code or link, with their first name and, if they wish, their email address. Anyone holding that QR code or link can join the event. The organizer chooses whom they give it to.

An event is free up to the number of participants shown on Bobine's pricing page. Beyond it, the organizer may ask the Publisher to raise the limit, free of charge while online sale is not open; once it opens, paid sizes are governed by the terms of sale. The number of photos per participant and per event is capped, to prevent abuse.

Article 3. Photos and image rights

Everyone has the right to respect for their image and private life. Whoever takes a photo makes sure the people photographed agree and respects their refusal. Photographing a child requires the agreement of their parents.

The author of a photo allows it to be shown to the event's participants, organizers and big screen, according to its settings, and downloaded by them. They keep their rights in the photo; the Publisher only uses it to provide the service. Sharing a photo beyond the event requires the agreement of the people photographed and is the responsibility of whoever does it.

Article 4. The organizer's role

The organizer chooses whom to invite, the visibility of the photos and their moderation. They make sure the people present know that photos are taken and shared with Bobine.

They may delete a photo at any time. They receive the participants' removal requests, review them diligently and remove the photo when the person who appears in it has a legitimate objection. They are responsible for the use they make of the downloaded album.

Article 5. Prohibited uses

It is prohibited to take or send with Bobine a photo:

  • taken against a person's refusal, or without their knowledge in an intimate moment;
  • of a sexual nature, or exposing a minor inappropriately;
  • humiliating, hateful, violent or harming a person's dignity;
  • unlawful, in particular infringing the rights of others.

It is also prohibited to misuse the service, in particular to store images unrelated to the event or to get around its limits.

Article 6. Photo retention

The photos and data of an event are deleted automatically 7 days after it ends if an organizer downloaded the album (never less than 2 days after that download), otherwise 30 days after it ends. Organizers and guests who left their address are notified by email before deletion.

Bobine is not a backup service. Download the photos you wish to keep before that date. A deleted photo cannot be recovered. A photo waiting for the network stays on the phone and may be lost if the browser's data is cleared before it is sent.

Article 7. Reporting and moderation

To report a photo that breaches these terms, request its removal from the gallery or write to the address given in the legal notice, describing the event and the photo.

The Publisher may delete without notice a photo or an event that breaches Article 5 or is reported as such. In case of serious or repeated breaches, the Publisher may delete the account concerned.

Article 8. Liability

Everyone is responsible for the photos they take and for the use they make of those they download. The Publisher hosts the photos without reviewing them beforehand. The Publisher's liability remains subject to applicable law.

The Publisher makes reasonable efforts to keep the service available, without guaranteeing permanent availability. The service may be interrupted for maintenance or in case of an incident.

Article 9. Account deletion

The organizer may delete an event they created at any time, with all its photos, and ask for the deletion of their account by email. A guest may remove their email address from the event; their other data is deleted with the event's.

Article 10. Changes to these terms

Updates to these terms are published on this page with their date. They do not override rights already acquired and remain subject to applicable law.

Article 11. Governing law

These terms are governed by French law.
