The User may unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, easily and free of charge, through the unsubscribe link included in every communication or by writing to [email protected] with "Unsubscribe newsletter" in the subject line.

The data provided when subscribing will be processed in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

6. User-generated content

If the User sends MERGE comments, suggestions, photographs, videos or other content through the Site, MERGE's social media or by email, the User warrants that they hold all the necessary rights and authorises MERGE to use such content for communication and promotion of the event, in any format and medium, throughout the entire legal protection period of the assigned rights and worldwide. The User undertakes not to send unlawful, offensive, defamatory or rights-infringing content, or content that violates the dignity of persons.

MERGE reserves the right to moderate, edit or remove any content it considers contrary to the Terms or to applicable law.

7. Intellectual property

All contents published on the Site (texts, images, videos, audios, graphics, source code, logos, trademarks) are owned by MERGE or by third parties that have authorised their publication.

• Temporary interruptions due to maintenance, failures of hosting providers or force majeure causes.
• Damage arising from the User's use of the Site contrary to the Terms.
• Third-party content (sponsors, speakers, partners, media) accessible from the Site.

These limitations apply to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and do not exclude MERGE's liability in cases of wilful misconduct, gross negligence or where such exclusion is prohibited by consumer protection law.
