Legal
Terms of Use
These terms govern your use of moroccanlaw.review. By using the Site you accept them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the Site.
1. Publisher
The Site is written, edited and published by Jadoua Benseghir, individual publisher, Casablanca, Morocco. She is its only author; the Site does not publish work by anyone else.

Hosting: Cloudflare, Inc., 101 Townsend Street, San Francisco, CA 94107, United States.
2. Nature of the content — no legal advice
The Moroccan Law Review is the personal academic publication of a single author. It contains independent legal research, commentary and reference material on Moroccan law, written in English.
Everything published on the Site is general information and academic commentary. It is not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for advice given by a qualified professional on your own facts.
Reading the Site, or sending a message through its contact form, does not create a lawyer–client, adviser–client or any other professional relationship between you and the author. The Site does not offer, solicit or advertise legal services of any kind.
The author is a legal researcher and juriste, not an avocat registered with a Moroccan bar. Where a matter requires representation before a Moroccan court, or any act reserved by law to the legal professions, you must instruct a locally qualified professional.
3. Accuracy and currency
Moroccan law changes. Texts are amended, implementing decrees are published later than the laws they apply to, and official sources are not always consolidated.
The Site aims to identify its sources precisely and to state the date on which a position was verified. Even so, the content is provided “as is” and without warranty of any kind, express or implied, as to accuracy, completeness, currency or fitness for any particular purpose. Always verify against the Bulletin officiel and the current consolidated text before relying on any point.
To the fullest extent permitted by Moroccan law, the author accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from reliance on the Site, from its unavailability, or from any error or omission in it.
4. Intellectual property
All content on the Site — articles, analysis, translations, tables, figures, the site design, the name “The Moroccan Law Review” and its logo — is protected under Law No. 2-00 on copyright and related rights (promulgated by Dahir No. 1-00-20 of 15 February 2000, as amended) and applicable international conventions.
You may read, print and quote short extracts for personal, academic, professional or journalistic use, provided you attribute them to the author and to The Moroccan Law Review and, where possible, link to the original page.
You may not, without prior written permission:
- reproduce or republish substantial parts of an article;
- use the content to train, fine-tune or build a machine-learning or generative AI system;
- use the content for commercial purposes, including resale or paid distribution;
- copy the design, structure or branding of the Site.
Official Moroccan legal texts quoted on the Site are public texts; the selection, arrangement, translation and commentary around them are not.
5. Enquiries
The contact form is for correspondence about the published research only. Do not send confidential, privileged or sensitive material through it.
Sending a message creates no obligation on either side, and no professional relationship arises from it.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to: use the Site unlawfully; attempt to gain unauthorised access to it or to its infrastructure; interfere with its operation; scrape it systematically or at a volume that burdens it; or submit false, misleading, unlawful or abusive content through its forms.
7. External links
The Site links to official sources (the SGG, Adala, the Bulletin officiel) and to third-party material. Those sites are not under the author’s control and links do not imply endorsement. The author is not responsible for their content or availability.
8. Changes
These terms may be updated. The version in force is the one published on this page, with the date shown above. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
9. Governing law and jurisdiction
These terms are governed by Moroccan law. Any dispute relating to the Site or to these terms falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the competent courts of Casablanca, Morocco, subject to any mandatory rule of law that gives jurisdiction elsewhere to a consumer.
