Directory terms of use
Last updated : 8 October 2026
This is a translation provided for information. Only the French version is legally binding.
These terms govern the listing of professionals in the directory published on the Ovulate website (the “directory”). They apply to anyone who creates or manages a listing from Ovulate Pro and serve as information on the processing of listing data within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”). They supplement Ovulate’s general terms of use and privacy policy.
1. Publisher of the directory
The directory is published by [company name, legal form, registered office], reachable at contact@ovulate.fr (“Ovulate”).
2. Purpose and free of charge
The directory helps people who observe their cycle find a professional to support them. Listing is free of charge and does not require an Ovulate Pro subscription. It creates no employment, agency or partnership relationship between Ovulate and the professional.
3. Who can be listed
- health professionals registered in the French shared directory of health professionals (RPPS): their RPPS number is checked in the Annuaire Santé before publication;
- people who support cycle observation without being health professionals (for example sympto-thermal counsellors): they upload the training certificate(s) of their choice (up to three) in Ovulate Pro with their listing. These are reviewed case by case, seen only by the Ovulate team and never published.
Ovulate may refuse a listing, ask for more information or suspend a published listing, in particular if the declared status cannot be verified or if the listing does not comply with these terms. The decision is sent by e-mail.
4. Creating and managing a listing
- A listing can only be created and edited from Ovulate Pro, with a single-use code received by e-mail. This access only opens the listing, not any other Ovulate Pro feature.
- Each listing is checked by the Ovulate team before it is first published. Changes to the name, profession(s) and RPPS number are checked again before they are published; other changes are published directly.
- An e-mail is sent to the account holder each time a published listing is changed.
- The page address is fixed when the listing is first published.
5. Your commitments as a professional
By creating a listing, you undertake to:
- provide accurate, up-to-date information and correct it without delay;
- publish only professional information that you own or are authorised to share (including the photo);
- comply with the ethical and legal rules of your profession, in particular on advertising and information to the public;
- publish no promise of effectiveness or results, in particular regarding contraception; the directory presents support, not guarantees;
- publish no unlawful, misleading, offensive or unrelated content;
- publish no data about your patients or the people you support.
6. No affiliation or recommendation
The professionals listed in the directory are neither affiliated with nor recommended by Ovulate. Ovulate only checks their professional status before publication. All listing information is provided directly by the professionals, who are solely responsible for it. Links to third-party sites (booking, social networks, reviews) are the responsibility of those sites.
7. Reporting
Anyone can report a listing that is inaccurate or breaches these terms to contact@ovulate.fr. Ovulate reviews every report and may suspend the listing concerned.
8. Removing your listing
You can remove your listing at any time from Ovulate Pro. It disappears from the website at the next directory update, usually within minutes. Deleting your account also deletes your listing.
9. Personal data
Controller: Ovulate (see section 1). Personal data contact: contact@ovulate.fr [dedicated address or DPO contact details].
Purpose: publishing a public directory of professionals, verifying their status, managing their account and sending them e-mails about their listing.
Legal basis: performance of these terms, which you accept by creating your listing (GDPR Article 6(1)(b)); for status verification and keeping evidence, Ovulate’s legitimate interest in ensuring the reliability of the directory (Article 6(1)(f)).
Published data (visible to everyone, including search engines): name, title, professions, photo, introduction, support offered, methods, languages, consultation modes, address and opening hours of the practice, fees and health-insurance status, telephone, contact e-mail (once confirmed), links. The RPPS number is not displayed: only the “RPPS verified” mention is.
Data not published: login e-mail, RPPS number, training certificates, history of changes and decisions, date of acceptance of these terms.
Recipients: the Ovulate team; our processors for hosting (Clever Cloud, France, including encrypted storage of certificates), e-mail delivery (Brevo, France) and address geolocation (Base Adresse Nationale, French public service). No directory data is sold or transferred.
Retention: as long as the listing exists; after removal or account deletion, the data is deleted within [period to be agreed with the DPO]. Training certificates are deleted 30 days after the team’s decision (publication or refusal), and immediately if the listing is removed.
Your rights: access, rectification (directly from Ovulate Pro), erasure (removing the listing or deleting the account), objection, restriction and portability, to be exercised at contact@ovulate.fr. You can lodge a complaint with the CNIL, the French data protection authority (cnil.fr).
10. Changes to these terms
Ovulate may change these terms. In the event of a significant change, you will be asked to accept the new version the next time you log in to your listing; otherwise, your listing may no longer be edited or resubmitted for review.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by French law. [jurisdiction clause to be confirmed]
