The concept of the right to erasure comes from the General Data Protection Regulation(GDPR), which is frequently referred to as the benchmark legislation for data protection around the world. Effective as of 2018, the GDPR grants several rights to data subjects, including in article 17, a right to obtain the erasure, as soon as possible, of personal data that a business holds about them... 3, record 1, English, - right%20to%20erasure

La notion de droit à l'effacement provient du Règlement général sur la protection des données (RGPD) qui est régulièrement cité comme la législation de référence en matière de protection des données à l'échelle internationale. Entrée en vigueur en 2018, le RGPD confère plusieurs droits aux personnes concernées par un traitement de données à caractère personnel, notamment à son article 17, un droit d'obtenir l'effacement, dans les meilleurs délais, de données à caractère personnel qu'une entreprise détient à leur sujet [...] 3, record 1, French, - droit%20%C3%A0%20l%27effacement

The basic premise of a season pass follows the real world concept of a sporting season ticket, and gives gamers open access to time bound events and activities in a game's world. These frequently run for about 3 months before expiring, at which point a new season pass must be redeemed. With each season, developers offer fresh content, features and customisation options to incentivise renewal. This method of monetization is very effective as it means a game can continue earning revenue long past its initial release date. The concept has a long running association with DLC(downloadable content packs) release and can be seen as a refinement and serialisation of them. 2, record 2, English, - season%20pass

Le Mondial de l'automobile est un salon international automobile qui se déroule tous les deux ans, vers la troisième semaine d'octobre, à Paris, au Parc des expositions de la porte de Versailles. Le Jardin des Tuileries reçoit en 1898 la première exposition internationale d'automobiles jamais réalisée dans le monde à l'intiative de l'Automobile Club de France. L'opération remporte un vif succès puisque 140 000 visiteurs viennent découvrir les 232 modèles exposés. En 1901, l'exposition prendra toute son importance en s'installant au Grand Palais. Mais, à nouveau, les organisateurs doivent trouver un autre lieu devant l'engouement des visiteurs et le nombre toujours croissant de modèles présentés. Le Mondial de l'automobile de Paris est un salon se tenant tous les deux ans (avant 1976, il était annuel), les années paires, qui se tient depuis 1962 au parc des expositions de la porte de Versailles; les années impaires se tient au Salon de Francfort. Le Salon de l'automobile change de nom en 1988 pour devenir le Mondial de l'Automobile. 3, record 15, French, - Mondial%20de%20l%27Automobile

Tulving introduced the concept of episodic memory in 1972, contrasting it with semantic memory. Episodic memory was assumed to refer to the capacity to recollect individual events, its essence being the capacity to represent a specific event located in time and place. Semantic memory, on the other hand, was assumed to correspond to general facts about the world, with no reference to spatial and temporal context. 3, record 16, English, - episodic%20memory

It is sometimes referred to as Global English, World English or Standard English.

Le joueur qui réussit la coche des coups la moins élevée pour un trou gagne le prix. Si tous les joueurs ont le même total pour un trou, le montant à gagner est alors ajouté au prix du trou suivant. Le Skins Game est une propriété mondiale du golf qui est vendue pour diffusion à travers le monde par IMG Canada. Les Skins Games professionnels se jouent aussi en Australie, en France, en Corée, en Thaïlande, en Grande-Bretagne, en Arabie saoudite et aux États-Unis. 1, record 24, French, - Skins%20Game%20de%20TELUS

Ethical consumption, also known as socially responsible consumption, is a trend where consumers ask questions about the company that produced the goods -- choosing to patronize the companies which have "positive" profiles and avoiding those with "negative" profiles. 3, record 25, English, - ethical%20consumption

The very name of "ethical consumption" is still an open issue, and varies from ethical consumption to consumption in solidarity, responsible consumption, and fair consumption.... The idea of "ethical consumption" should initially be based on a definition of ethics. For those who understand the concept of Ethics as the definition of criteria to identify Good and Evil, it is important for the concept of Ethical Consumption to include another idea of consumption that is not based on individualism. The word that best defines this relationship with the rest of the world is "solidarity. "It qualifies it and defines the importance of others in the ethical values on which consumption is based. In this case we are talking about "ethical consumption in solidarity. "There is also a simplified version called "consumption in solidarity", which appears in the literature referring to consumption that not only considers our personal welfare but also considers general welfare. This is a consumption in which production is completed, generating an impact on the ecosystem and society in general. Under this idea, the choice of type of consumption can benefit or hinder the creation or maintenance of the productive jobs in a specific society, the preservation of ecosystems and the promotion of the general welfare of communities, countries and the entire planet. "Responsible consumption"(an expression used in Europe, particularly in France), appears where there is an awareness of the power of consumers, which become economic units with an important role to play, just as important as businesses and market regulatory boards. It implies an idea of economy that wishes to provide answers to citizens who belong to an economic and political world that considers man as a mere consumer. In this respect, consuming in a different way represents paying attention to what the money that we give to buy goods and services is financing, thus bringing economic pressure to bear from below that compensates 4, record 25, English, - ethical%20consumption

The concept of "sustainable development" was first used in the mid-1970s, to suggest a broad policy goal of integrating environmental considerations into economic decisions. In 1980, the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources(IUCN), in conjunction with UNEP [United Nations Environment Programme], the World Wildlife fund(WWF), and other organisations, published the World Conservation Strategy(WCS). In the WCS, the current and more complex implication of sustainable development emerged to imply, for example, operational linkages between resource use and sustainable yields, in light of the needs of future generations. 2, record 27, English, - World%20Conservation%20Strategy

The concept of building major strategic port storages, suitably located to serve a large area, has caught the interest of many including, the FAO and the World Bank. The concept of building strategically located "transshipment" ports also has potential. Such facilities would transfer grain from large ocean bulk carrier to small coasters that could serve shallow receiving ports. Potential locations for such transshipment ports include the Caribbean Sea, the Mediterranean, Singapore, Hong Kong, and other ports on the coast of Mainland China. 1, record 28, English, - transshipment%20port

L'idée de construire des ports de transbordement avantageusement situés n'est pas non plus sans intérêt. Dans ces ports, on pourrait transborder le grain des vraquiers dans des caboteurs capables d'entrer dans des ports peu profonds.

Fischer, Brown, and Burton(1978; Burton, Brown, and Fischer, 1984) propose a paradigm for the design of optimal learning environments, which they call increasingly complex microworlds. The concept of microworlds created for educational purposes with the computer as a(universal simulator) is already the central theme of LOGO. Fischer et al. set out to formalize the notion of a succession of(microworlds) where the modifications at each step are meant to support learning. The idea is to start with a simplified world and to have a coach progressively add new dimensions of complexity that require an increasing mastery of basic skills. Fischer et al. present skiing instruction as a pedagogical success model that has made use of microworlds. Over the years, skiing instruction has become safer and surprisingly effective. According to the authors, the key to this success is the definition of progressive learning phases : instructors have combined technological advances with pedagogical cleverness to provide useful simplified versions of the skill. 1, record 35, English, - increasingly%20complex%20microworld
