How Instagram’s Terms and Conditions violates French law1Terms and Conditions • May 8th, 2018
Terms and Condition are the only formal contract that links all user of a social network such as Instagram. This contract - which is based on the company headquarter’s state law - is the same for every user no matter the laws of the user’s country and dictates how a dispute can be resolved. As a French citizen, it looks really hard to solve a dispute with Instagram regarding its Terms and Conditions. The dispute resolution process described offers solutions that would force a French citizen to come to California in order to have a dispute resolved. As it is opposed to the 6Th article of the European Convention of Human Right, the binding dispute solution of Instagram can be recognized as “unfair” and the case can be judged in France. This solution can take years as some Facebook users experienced and this way Instagram is reducing the number of claims coming from outside the USA.
