Access to this information is free, direct, permanent, and unrestricted.

It is an independent project presenting, for informational purposes, the territorial organization of the CAR along with related practical, cultural, and commercial content.
2. Hosting
The Site is hosted by:
- Host: Netlify, Inc.
- Address: 101 2nd Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, United States
- Contact: netlify.com
3. Intellectual Property
All content on the Site — text, maps, illustrations, page layouts, PDF guides, postcards, source code, and the "Centrafrique Pratique" visual identity — is protected by copyright and remains the property of the Site's publisher, unless otherwise stated.
Any reproduction, representation, modification, publication, or adaptation of all or part of the Site's content, by any means or process, is prohibited without prior written authorization, except for:
- strictly personal, non-commercial use;
- short quotations accompanied by a clear source citation and a link to the Site;
- cases expressly permitted by law (short quotations, press review, etc.).
Administrative data (regions, prefectures, sub-prefectures, populations) is drawn from public sources cited on the Site — notably Decree No. 24.149 of May 30, 2024 and the General Population and Housing Census (RGPH-4, ICASEES 2024). This raw data is not protected as such, but its compilation, structuring, and presentation on the Site are.
The base geographic boundaries (pre-2024 administrative limits) were digitized from reference maps published by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), licensed under CC BY-IGO — a license that permits commercial use and the creation of derivative works, subject to attribution: Base boundaries adapted from OCHA Central African Republic Common Operational Datasets, used under CC BY-IGO. From that base, the publisher had the new territorial structure (7 regions, 20 prefectures, 85 sub-prefectures) introduced by Decree No. 24.149 of May 30, 2024 rebuilt — a substantial transformation producing a legal geography distinct from the one published by OCHA. This new cartography, along with its compilation, structuring, and presentation on the Site, is the property of the publisher.
Products sold in the Shop (Practical Guide PDF, Postcard Collection) are licensed to the buyer for personal use upon purchase: their resale, redistribution, or reproduction for commercial purposes is prohibited without written agreement.
Any unauthorized use of the Site or any of its elements will be considered an infringement and prosecuted in accordance with applicable law.
4. Accuracy of Information & Limitation of Liability
The publisher strives to provide information that is as accurate as possible, citing its sources (ICASEES, official decrees, UNESCO, WHO, OCHA, etc.) and correcting reported errors within a reasonable timeframe. However:
- the administrative organization of the CAR may change; information on the Site may not reflect regulatory or territorial changes in real time;
- demographic data are estimates based on the most recent available census and may differ from later official figures;
- practical information (security, health, transport, visas) is provided for guidance only and does not, under any circumstances, replace the official advisories of competent authorities (foreign affairs ministries, embassies, international health organizations);
- the Site cannot be held responsible for decisions made solely on the basis of the information it contains, particularly regarding travel, security, or health.
Security disclaimer: the security situation in the Central African Republic can change rapidly and vary significantly by area. Before any travel, it is essential to consult the official travel advisories of your country of residence (for example, diplomatie.gouv.fr for France, travel.state.gov for the United States, or gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice for the United Kingdom).
An error-reporting form is available on the Site's administrative pages so users can flag any inaccuracy.
The publisher shall not be held liable for direct or indirect damages resulting from access to the Site, its use, or the inability to access it, including in the event of interruption, suspension, malfunction, or malicious intrusion.
5. Online Sales — Shop & Directory
The Shop offers downloadable digital products (Practical Guide in PDF format, printable postcard collection).
5.1 Nature of the products
The products sold are digital content delivered immediately upon payment, with no physical medium. In accordance with applicable regulations in France and the European Union, a buyer who proceeds with immediate download of the product after payment expressly waives their 14-day right of withdrawal, and is informed of this before confirming any order.
5.2 Price and payment
Prices shown are in US dollars (USD), tax included where applicable. Payment is processed by Lemon Squeezy (Lemon Squeezy, Inc., a Stripe company), which acts as the official reseller (Merchant of Record) for the digital products sold on the Site. As such, Lemon Squeezy — not SENIDUTI LLC — is the legal seller in the transaction, responsible for collecting and remitting applicable taxes (VAT, local sales tax); Lemon Squeezy's own terms of use also apply to the transaction.
5.3 Terms of Sale
Detailed Terms of Sale cover ordering, payment, digital delivery, warranty, and after-sales service.
5.4 Complaints and refunds
Any complaint relating to a purchased product (corrupted file, billing error, product not matching its description) may be sent to contact@seniduti.com within 14 days of purchase. This period is a goodwill service standard: it applies without prejudice to the statutory guarantees consumers hold under the mandatory law of their country of residence (in the European Union, notably the conformity guarantee for digital content under Directive (EU) 2019/770, of at least two years from supply). Claims based on those guarantees may be raised through the same channel.
5.5 Directory — Featured Listing
Basic registration in the Directory is free. The paid "Featured listing" option (annual subscription) is processed by Lemon Squeezy, under the same terms described in Article 5.2 above: Lemon Squeezy acts as the official reseller (Merchant of Record) for this subscription, is responsible for collecting and remitting applicable taxes, and its own terms of use apply to the transaction.
6. Personal Data
The Site collects personal data in the following cases: contact form, optional newsletter subscription, shop purchase, directory listing (free or "Featured") and audience measurement. The controller is SENIDUTI LLC; payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy, Inc. as Merchant of Record and independent controller.
The full text — data collected, purposes and legal bases, recipients, retention periods, international transfers, data subject rights and complaint routes — is published in the Privacy Policy. Requests to exercise your rights are sent to contact@seniduti.com.
8. Hyperlinks
The Site may contain links to third-party sites (humanitarian organizations, ministries, embassies, data sources). The publisher exercises no control over these sites and disclaims all liability for their content, availability, or personal data practices.
Setting up a hyperlink to the Site is permitted without prior authorization, provided it does not harm the image or reputation of "Centrafrique Pratique" and does not imply any affiliation or endorsement that has not been established.
9. Security & Site Availability
The publisher implements reasonable technical measures to ensure the security of the Site and the protection of data passing through it (firewall, regular updates, backups). It cannot, however, guarantee absolute availability or security, and shall not be held liable in the event of malicious intrusion, failure, maintenance, or temporary interruption of the Site.
Any attempt at unauthorized access, mass data extraction (scraping), or interference with the Site's proper functioning is strictly prohibited and may result in legal action, including under laws relating to computer fraud.
10. Applicable Law & Disputes
This legal notice is governed by the law of the State of Delaware (United States of America) and applicable US federal law. However, in accordance with Article 3 of Central African Decree No. 23.047 and consumer protection rules applicable in the European Union, this choice cannot deprive a consumer user of the protection afforded by the mandatory provisions of the law of their country of habitual residence.
In the event of a dispute, an amicable solution will be sought as a priority; failing that, jurisdiction is attributed to the courts of Kent County, Delaware, without prejudice to mandatory jurisdiction rules applicable to consumers, who may bring proceedings before the courts of their own place of residence.
Consumers residing in the European Union may also refer the matter to the out-of-court consumer dispute resolution body competent in their Member State.
