Legal

Terms of use

Last updated: 15 May 2026. By accessing eupublicdata you accept the terms below. They are drafted to be short, lay-readable and binding under Italian law for the operator, and consistent with the rights granted to users by EU consumer-protection legislation.

1. Nature of the service

eupublicdata is an informational portal that aggregates and re-presents official European public data sourced from institutional providers. It is not legal, financial, fiscal, regulatory or migration advice. It is not a news service. Users requiring an authoritative answer to a specific question should consult the primary source linked on each page, or retain a professional.

2. Operator

The site is operated by an Italian VAT-registered freelancer based in Carpi (MO), Italy. Contact and legal address available at /contact/.

3. Accuracy and warranties

Source data is fetched from institutional providers (Eurostat, TED, EUR-Lex, Kohesio, CORDIS, ECB, Frontex, IOM, UNHCR, OECD and others). Upstream providers may revise, withdraw or restate published figures. We reflect the most recent vintage on a regular cadence (see methodology). No warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, completeness or non-interruption is offered.

If you spot an error, please write to [email protected] or read our corrections policy.

4. Licensing of content

Source data is governed by the licence of the upstream provider (typically Eurostat Licence, Commission Reuse Decision 2011/833/EU, or CC-BY-4.0 — check the source link on each page). Our editorial layer — chart designs, page copy, calculated aggregates — is released under CC-BY-4.0. Cite as shown on /press/.

5. Acceptable use

• Consult, link to, quote and reuse the content under the licence above.
• Use the public JSON API at /api/ within a reasonable request rate (one request per second is fine; sustained burst traffic that impacts other users may be rate-limited at the edge).
• Do not attempt to bypass tier gates, edge caching or build artefacts (this hurts nobody but you, but is still expressly disallowed).
• Do not present the site as affiliated with any EU institution, member state government or political organisation. It is independent of all of them.

6. Trademarks and emblems

The European emblem, EU institutional logos, member-state coats of arms and other official insignia are property of their respective rights-holders and are not used decoratively on this site. Where they appear, it is as a citation of the originating provider, with a link back to the official source.

7. Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the operator is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from use of the site. This clause does not limit any right that mandatory Italian or EU consumer-protection law grants to natural persons.

8. Changes

Material changes to these terms are recorded in the public Git history of this site. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.

9. Governing law and jurisdiction

Italian law applies. The exclusive forum is Modena (MO), Italy, except where a different forum is mandatory under EU consumer-protection rules for natural persons resident in the EU.
