Simply browsing this site constitutes acceptance of these Terms and Conditions. Users who do not agree with the Terms and Conditions and methods of use of this portal in their entirety, or who have not understood them, must not proceed any further with use of the www.triennale.org portal.
Browsing the www.triennale.org portal is free of charge except for telephone or other costs required for connection to the Internet, which are payable by the User.
For the purposes of these Terms and Conditions:

The Data Controller reserves the right to make changes, even of a substantial nature, at any time to these terms of use, informing users of such changes through publication on this site. Any subsequent access to said changes implies full acceptance by the User of the new conditions of use.

3) USE OF THE PORTAL: REGISTRATION ON THE WEBSITE AND CONDITIONS FOR USE OF THE COMMUNITY
To use the services of the Portal, to access all the areas of the site, and to interact with all its content, including those uploaded by other registered persons, the User must register on the www.triennale.org website, carrying out the pre-registration process.
To register on the portal, the User must be aged 18 years or over and must be in possession of the faculties required by law to undertake commercial actions and to sign contracts.
When registering, the User must enter their personal data, making sure that the information provided is true and complete; the User will also be asked to create a User ID and password, which are to be considered as confidential and personal.
Once the account is activated, the User will be required to use both the account and the password in a correct and lawful manner, making sure to log out before leaving the website in order to protect the information that has been inserted.
The User must keep the password for the account with due care and attention. In case of loss/theft of their credentials, users must immediately change their password using the “Forgot your password?” recovery function, ensuring absolute secrecy: all manifestations of will, and all actions and deeds with legal consequences made by the User’s account will be attributed to the User.
Any changes in the data provided must be made by updating the personal profile: in the event of any modification and/or addition of personal data, the User is obliged to ensure that all information provided is true.
The User agrees not to access restricted areas if they are not the true and lawful owner of the access credentials.
The User may cancel their account at any time.
Cancellation decided by the User or cancellation/suspension by the Data Controller will not affect any previously acquired rights and obligations.
The Data Controller has the right to suspend or cancel the User’s registration at any time, and at its own discretion, in the case of violation of these Terms and Conditions.
4) USE OF THE PORTAL: SOCIAL NETWORKS
Users registered on social networks (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) who intend to share comments, tweets, photos or videos on the Data Controller’s social pages accept that such messages/uploads are also shared on this portal.
Users who interact with the Data Controller’s social pages must respect the rules of conduct and conditions of use of the service as dictated by the manager of the social pages.
In any case, any uploads of files, links, images, messages, etc. must respect the prohibition of any harassing, threatening, defamatory, offensive, obscene, or objectionable expressions.
By uploading any of the above formats, the User assumes full liability for the content they contain.
The Data Controller’s obligations, guarantees of service and disclaimers
The Data Controller undertakes to provide the User access to this website and to the services it offers, as well as the communication tools (e.g. social pages) connected to it, ensuring its implementation compatibly with the current state of development of computer tools.
The services provided do not include the provision of a computer or other equipment required for accessing the site. The internet connection is payable by the User.
The site is made available without any form of guarantee or special licence and the User who accesses it assumes all risks associated with the use of the Internet and IT applications (including hardware and software).
The Data Controller is therefore not liable for any damage and/or loss and/or malfunction and/or detriment of any kind which may affect the User’s computer due to use of the service provided by the Data Controller, nor for any contamination of the User’s computer system caused by access, interconnection or downloading of materials and computer programs from the website (e.g. viruses, malware). Any related costs of repair/recovery shall therefore be borne by the User.
In particular, the Data Controller declines any responsibility for:
a) incompatibility of the site with the User’s equipment, software, and/or telecommunication links;
b) technical problems, including site errors and interruptions;
c) attacks sustained by the User while browsing (e.g. viruses, malware)
d) damage to the equipment/software used by the User for browsing;
The Data Controller assumes no responsibility for any content published on this site by the User or by third parties, for the use that the User or third parties may make of it, or for the relevance, correctness or quality of the information provided via the site by the User or by third parties.
The Data Controller also reserves the right to modify, add or delete parts of the website, without prior notice, as well as the right to temporarily or indefinitely suspend its publication, in whole or in part.
The Data Controller is not responsible for any use of this website or for any services, offered on it by the User or by any third party, that are in violation of the law, morality or public order, or that may contravene the provisions set out in these conditions for use.
At its own discretion, the Data Controller may use links to third-party websites to make their services available to users (e.g. “Give an Exhibition”). The Data Controller does not, however, have any control over the links to these websites and their content, nor is it responsible for the content – which may be illegal – of any such sites which may be directly or indirectly linked.
Only the manager of the page to which the link refers is responsible for any illegal, incorrect or incomplete content on said page and, in particular, for any damage that may arise from the use or non-use of the information it contains. On the contrary, the Data Controller, which simply puts a link to another website on its own website, is in no way responsible for the content of the other website.
Access to the site may be subject to temporary interruptions due to repairs, maintenance or the introduction of new instruments and services. The Data Controller undertakes to restore the service as quickly as possible.
5) PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA AND USE OF COOKIES
Submission by the User of their own personal data (e.g. name, surname, e-mail address) is regulated in accordance with Italian Decree Law no. 196/2003. In general, data is submitted freely and voluntarily by the user of the website.
Even so, please refer to the Privacy Policy on this website and to the Cookie Policy which governs the use of cookies by this website.
