No liability may be attributed to Fidia for effects caused by viruses, spyware or other harmful programs that are not detected and inactivated by the security software of the Website or as a result of accessing or browsing the Website or downloading materials, data, text, images or video or audio content from the Website or using any part of the Website’s Content.

The information contained in these websites may not comply with Italian law.
Fidia warns Users that such information is managed by third parties independently and outside the control of Fidia.
