6. Conclusion of the license agreement.

6.1 The End-User’s registration is carried out through an on-line procedure and involves the provision of specific information, including: name and surname and e-mail address.  

The End-User undertakes to:

- provide the personal information requested during this procedure, taking care that such information is up-to-date, complete and true;

- update this data promptly and constantly so that they are always up-to-date, complete and true.

In the event that the User provides false, inaccurate, out-of-date or incomplete information, or if Bentanji considers, on the basis of its own discretional judgement, that the information provided by the End-User is false, inaccurate, out-of-date or incomplete, Bentanji shall, in all events, have the right to temporarily or definitively disable the account of the End-User in question, preventing any further use.

At the end of the registration procedure, the End-User obtains the attribution of a personal Account to which they access by means of a confidential User Identification (ID) and Password (PW).

Use of the site and of the Account is strictly personal.

The End-User is solely and exclusively responsible for the safekeeping and proper use of the access credentials to their Account (responsibility that extends to any sort of activity exercisable through their relative use) and, as a result, undertakes to correctly and attentively perform the login and logout procedures, to immediately communicate to Bentanji any non-authorised use of their Account, as well as any other breach of the security regulations of which they become aware.

Bentanji may not, in any way, be held liable for damages deriving from failed compliance with these registration procedures, since the End-User is aware that, for the purpose of regulating access to the service, their authentication depends exclusively on the check of their ID and PW.

The End-User is solely liable for any damage or harm deriving to Bentanji or to third parties further to incorrect use, loss, theft and/or impairment of the confidentiality of the ID and PW.

All the operations carried out through the user Account are automatically traceable to the End-User, without exceptions.
