Liability

The Louvre Web site links to many other sites. For the most part, these are official sites (of institutions or public organizations) but they also include some sites of associations and partner companies. For each link, we make an effort to indicate the sites to which we are directing you. However, these Web pages, whose URLs are checked regularly, are not part of the public, official Louvre Web site (www.louvre.fr), and the museum's editorial staff takes no responsibility for their content.

When the data on this site contains personal names, users must make use of this data in compliance with the current legislation and with the recommendations of the National Committee for Computers and Liberty (CNIL). Information must only be used for personal, associative, or professional purposes; all use for commercial or advertising purposes is strictly forbidden.
