4.1 · Recall

1. How do you acquire an exclusive right in a trademark (in most countries)?

By publishing it on your website Automatically Through mere use By filing with an office

Use alone protects poorly; check availability before choosing.

4.1 · Application

2. Yacine chose a name without checking. What should he have done BEFORE?

Check its availability (no similar earlier trademark) Nothing: the first to use it wins File it directly with no search Use it for a long time to create the right

Check before choosing, not after — including variants and lookalikes.

4.2 · Recall

3. Does copyright arise from a filing, like trademarks?

Yes, like trademarks Only for logos No: automatically, upon original creation Never

With no filing — but keep evidence of date and authorship.

4.2 · Application

4. Yacine paid his designer for the logo, with no written assignment. Can he modify and file it freely?

No: a written, specific assignment is required — paying is not enough Only for a logo, never for a website Yes: paying automatically transfers all rights Yes if he paid a lot

Rights arise with the author; paying is not an assignment.

4.2 · Recall

5. Yacine wants to illustrate his blog with an image 'found on the Internet'. Which analysis is correct?

On social media, the rules do not apply No without a licence or permission: accessible does not mean free Accessible = free: he can reuse it without checking A credit under the image counts as permission

Online content is protected even without notice; read each licence.

4.3 · Application

6. Yacine's showcase site has a simple contact form. Does he need a privacy policy?

Only internationally Yes: a form already collects personal data No, only shops No, never for a showcase

Mandatory legal notices + a policy reflecting YOUR real processing.

4.3 · Application

7. To save time, Yacine copies a competitor's legal notices. Why is this a mistake?

Because his site is too small for notices There is no mistake, it is recommended Because copying takes longer than writing Unsuitable, sometimes protected, false sense of security: they describe another site

Compliance cannot be copied: it reflects YOUR real practices.

4.4 · Recall

8. What is the right of withdrawal in distance selling?

A commercial gift The right not to pay A consumer's ability to change their mind without reason, within a period (with exceptions) A 2-year guarantee

Inform clearly BEFORE purchase; do not confuse with statutory guarantees.

4.4 · Application

9. Where does e-commerce compliance mainly play out?

In the shop's logo In the site's colour Nowhere once the terms are written In the purchase journey and information (order, price, withdrawal)

Compliant funnel + enforceable terms, drawn up under the customers' law.

4.5 · Arbitration

10. What stance should you take towards the legal issues of AI?

Carelessness Informed caution: identify, apply known principles, stay watchful Paralysing fear Ignore

AI law is immature, shifting and varies by country.

4.5 · Arbitration

11. Yacine wants to pour his customer files into a free AI assistant. What reflex?

Ignore the terms of use Treat them as potentially shared with a third party: avoid sensitive data, anonymise Put everything in: entering stays confidential by principle Never use AI, in no case

Benefit from AI without exposing what must stay protected.

4.5 · Arbitration

12. Do the AI-generated visuals for Yacine's campaign freely belong to him, risk-free?

Yes, always and everywhere No: unusable in all cases Open question: uncertain protectability and infringement risk — caution, check, read the terms Yes, without qualification: generation = total ownership

Unsettled status, varying by country: informed caution + monitoring.

What's next?

Score ≥ 80%: move on to Level 5 — V3 (legal risks, disputes and pre-litigation, mediation and arbitration, business insurance, legal monitoring and working with a lawyer).
Score < 80%: revisit the sections you missed using their explanations above — each one re-explains the concept (trademark, copyright, website, e-commerce, AI) — redo their 48h challenges, then retake the exam.
