French term or phrase: de nature éditoriale et informative
Le Photographe accepte que l’Agence puisse retoucher le fichier numérique afin de s'assurer que la version numérique représente avec précision la Photographie originale. Cette retouche pourra inclure des corrections de couleurs, des enlèvements de poussières ou saletés accidentelles, la mise en valeur ou la préservation de détails, et la correction d'inversions ou créations de flous si une telle inversion ou création de flous est intervenue pendant l'opération de saisie numérique. L’Agence respecte les considérations d'ordre éthique qui s'attachent à l'utilisation des Photographies de nature éditoriale et informative, et n'altèrera pas intentionnellement ni substantiellement la nature fondamentale de l'objet représenté par la Photographie ou la légende.
