as “General Conditions”), which the User accepts when making use of the Service. 
3. Expopage S.p.A., whose registered office is at No. 1 P.le Carlo Magno, Milan,

associated software and all relevant exploitation rights.  
4. EXPOPAGE may make changes to the General Conditions, unilaterally and at any 
time, by means of on-line announcements.  In this event, EXPOPAGE will bring all 
changes to the User’s attention with messages on the home page of the Service, so that 
they can be seen by the User before accessing the Service.  By subsequently using the

of information contained in the Service; iii) nor does it offer any guarantees regarding 
results obtained by using the Service.  The User also takes all responsibility for any 
damage caused to the User’s computer system as a result of using the Service. 
6. When using the Service, the User may be contacted by EXPOPAGE, for and on 
behalf of third parties interested in the User’s profile; as a corollary of this and
