Purchase website.

Based on Italian law and international copyright protection.
Your website is made with a completely customized design by us as a unique piece, when you buy a website you acquire the right of use (the usufruct for life) but not the intellectual property ... to give an example: the fact that you bought it does not give you the right to make a copy and resell it which is the equivalent of a theft by law.
Nor that the same website is transferred and entrusted to another web agency that modifies it and inserts it into its portfolio as a product, like a website created by them.

As it happens on the Stock photo sites (Fotolia, Adobe Stock, etc ...) when you buy an image for € 39.00 you buy the right to use it on your website or to insert it in a presentation brochure. you do not acquire the ownership of being printed on t-shirts and selling the t-shirts as your own creations or of reselling the images to themselves to third parties.
To overcome this (if you need it) you can buy the image with full commercial rights that goes (again to give an example) from € 39.00 to € 240.00 ... at this point the image is removed from the site and the user can do what he wants with it.
Similarly your website, in case one wishes to make a use of it other than that established by international copyright laws, he / she must specify it either in the estimate phase or if the need arises at a later time, please note that an ancillary cost will be applied. (indicative price equal to 80% of the cost of the website but variable from project to project) to acquire full intellectual property and do what you want with it.
