2021-03-05 ima Statutes - Revised English Version

Note:

In order to take into account all the changes that have taken place since the IMA was founded four years ago, the Statutes of our Association have undergone a general revision.

Extensive adjustments were made with regard to the definition of the purpose of the Association (Article II) and the Membership (Article V) in order to state clearly in view of the EU Copyright Directive coming into force in June 2021 that we are not a service provider but only operate our website for registered members of the Association to share content for which the members themselves have the exclusive copyright.

Furthermore, it was arranged that in the event of liquidation (Article XI), if there is money for it, a pro rata refund of prepaid membership fees will be made, and in what order. In addition, the terms of engagement of the members of the Association's Board have been made more specific (Article VII).

It is intended to propose these revised Statutes for approval at the
Ipernity General Assembly (IGA) on March 28, 2021.
