4. User-generated content
By publishing a report, event, review or any other content, the user declares that the content is truthful, does not infringe third-party rights and does not violate applicable laws. QC Tech reserves the right to moderate, reject or remove any content at its sole discretion, without obligation to provide reasons, in particular in the case of offensive, false, defamatory content or content infringing the privacy of others (e.g. recognisable faces or licence plates in photographs).
The user is solely responsible for published content.
5. Civic reports
Reports published on QuiPalermo are for informational and civic awareness purposes. QuiPalermo is not an official channel of the Municipality of Palermo or any public body, and does not guarantee that reports will be taken up by the competent authorities.
6. Commercial businesses and Premium plan
Businesses listed in the "Explore" section may in part be imported automatically from public sources (OpenStreetMap) and verified via third-party services (Google Places). An owner may "claim" their listing to confirm its accuracy. The accuracy of unclaimed listings is not guaranteed.
