Nature of the Site

Dossier Thriller is an editorial website about military and spy fiction. It publishes a catalog of authors, series and books, reading orders and articles on the real-world background of the novels. The site is updated without any regular periodicity. It is not a newspaper or a registered news publication (testata giornalistica) within the meaning of Italian publishing law, including Law No. 62 of March 7, 2001, and it is not subject to the registration required of periodical publications.

The content is informational. References to real armed forces, intelligence agencies, units and equipment describe how the novels use them; they are not official information and do not reflect any inside knowledge.

Intellectual Property

The original texts of the site, the structure of the catalog, the selection and arrangement of its data and the original images belong to the site owner and are protected by Italian copyright law, including Law No. 633 of April 22, 1941, and by international treaties. Short quotations for the purposes of criticism, discussion or reference are permitted, provided that the source is clearly stated with a link to the page quoted. Any other reproduction, republication or systematic extraction of the content, including automated copying of the catalog, requires prior written permission.

Third-Party Titles, Names and Trademarks

The names of authors, the titles of books and series, the names of characters and publishers, and any trademarks mentioned on the site belong to their respective owners. They are used only to identify, catalog and review the works concerned. Their use does not imply any affiliation with, sponsorship by or endorsement from the authors, their publishers or their estates. Authors who write under a pen name are identified only by the name printed on their books.

No Publisher Synopses or Covers

The descriptions on the site are written from scratch. The site does not reproduce synopses, back-cover copy or other promotional texts from publishers, and it does not use book covers or other publishers’ artwork as graphic material. The images on the site are original and do not reproduce third-party artwork or logos.

Links and Third-Party Content

The site contains links to external websites, including links to Amazon.com that are part of the Amazon Associates program, as described in the affiliate disclosure. The site owner does not control the content, prices, availability, terms or privacy practices of external websites and is not responsible for them. Any purchase made on a third-party website is a contract between the buyer and that seller, governed by the seller’s own terms.

Limitation of Liability

Bibliographic data is checked against publisher sources at the time a page is written, but publishers change titles, dates and editions, and announced books are sometimes postponed or canceled. The content of the site is therefore provided as it is, without any guarantee of completeness or of being up to date. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the site owner is not liable for any damage arising from the use of the information on the site, from errors or omissions, or from interruptions in its availability. This does not limit liability that cannot be excluded under Italian law, such as liability for willful misconduct or gross negligence under Article 1229 of the Italian Civil Code.

Reporting Rights Issues and Errors

Rights holders who believe that content on the site infringes their rights can report it through the contact form or by writing to the contact address shown above. A report should identify the content and the page where it appears, and state the right claimed. Every report is examined promptly, and content found to infringe is corrected or removed. Reports of factual or bibliographic errors are welcome through the same channels.

Applicable Law and Jurisdiction

These terms and the use of the site are governed by Italian law. Any dispute falls within the jurisdiction of the courts of the place where the site owner resides, as indicated above. This is without prejudice to the mandatory protections that consumers enjoy under the law of their country of residence, including, for consumers, the rules on the competent court set by the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree No. 206 of September 6, 2005) and by European Union law, which cannot be waived.

Changes to These Terms

These terms may be updated when the site changes or when the law requires it. The version published on this page applies from the date of its publication, and continued use of the site after a change means acceptance of the updated terms. How personal data is handled is explained in the privacy policy, and the use of cookies in the cookie policy.
