Legal

Terms of use

The ground rules for using this website, in plain terms.

Who runs this site

This website is run by MATER Medical Students Association (C.F. 91482190377, based in Bologna), a student association. You can write to us at secretariat@mater-msa.com. MATER is independent and is not part of the University of Bologna.

What the site is for

It tells you about MATER, its events and how to join. What we write about studies, exams and careers is general information from students to students: it isn't medical, legal or academic advice. For official rules and deadlines, check the University of Bologna's own pages.

Events

Each event's page says what taking part involves. Details such as times, rooms and speakers can change; we post changes on the event's page and on Instagram. Photos may be taken at events, and the privacy notice explains your choices.

Membership and donations

Joining MATER is free, and membership is governed by our Bylaws. Donations are voluntary. If you gave by mistake, write to the secretariat.

Using what's on this site

MATER's texts, logo and illustrations belong to MATER. You're welcome to quote and share our pages with a link back; please ask before using the logo. Other names and logos, such as Instagram's or our sponsors', belong to their owners.

Links to other websites

We link to websites we don't run, such as Instagram, Google Forms and Google Maps. Their content and their privacy practices are their own.

Accessibility

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 at level AA. If anything on this site is hard to use, write to secretariat@mater-msa.com and we'll fix it, or send you the information another way.

Changes, and which law applies

If these terms change, the date below changes too. They are governed by Italian law, and nothing in them limits the rights you have under Italian or EU law.
