Explanation:
"lien" is a French term meaning "link".

lien nom masculin

(= rapport) link; connection
(= analogie) link

It\'s used in English in legal texts, but I don\'t think that\'s the case here.

lien
noun
(Law) a right to retain possession of another\'s property pending discharge of a debt
[ETYMOLOGY: 16th Century: via Old French from Latin ligamen bond, from ligare to bind]

The term would be \"hyperlink\" in English.
