Law/Patents / licensing of rights to use photographs

French term or phrase: revendication

Context : marché public - contrat pour services - cession de droits d'utilisation de photographies pour une exposition

Extrait : Le contractant désigné à l’article 1.2 garantit la XXX une jouissance paisible des droits cédés aux termes du présent marché et garantit cette dernière contre tous TROUBLES, TOUTES REVENDICATIONS, EVICTIONS émanant de tiers.

Le contractant désigné à l’article 1.2 garantit notamment la XXX contre toutes RECLAMATIONS, REVENDICATIONS, RECOURS OU ACTIONS de toute personne, qu’il agisse ou non de personnes ayant collaboré ou participé à la production de l’œuvre étant rappelé que toutes rémunérations éventuellement dues à tous auteurs, collaborateurs artistiques ou techniques dont le titulaire s’est assuré la collaboration, demeurent à sa charge exclusive. Il garantit également la XXX contre toute réclamation des sociétés de perception de droits d’auteurs notamment la YYY et la ZZZ."

You can see my problem. I have to be able to differentiate between "revendication" and "réclamation".

Any suggestions?
