darceon.it is run by Davide Cessaria, a private individual with no business activity, email info@darceon.it. Darceon is an archive of urban playing courts: each drop documents a court and its community with a collection of T-shirts. Today the site does not carry out any sales activity.

• You must be 18 or older to sign up, with real details: the first name, last name and date of birth are yours.
• One account per person. The account becomes active only after email confirmation; without confirmation within 48 hours it is deleted.
• Keep your password to yourself: whoever knows it can get into your account. If you think someone knows it, change it from your Profile or with “Forgot your password?”.
• You can also sign in with a passkey (your device's fingerprint, face or PIN): you create and remove it from your Profile. Whoever unlocks your device can use it: keep it protected.
• The account is free. You can delete it whenever you like from your Profile: the data disappears immediately.
• An account with no sign-ins or use for 24 months is deleted. At least 30 days before, an email arrives with the date: signing in is enough to keep it.
• Accounts used for abuse (automated sign-ups, several accounts to get around limits, false details, attempts to break into the site) may be suspended or deleted, together with their reservations.

When the email is confirmed, every complete profile receives a numbered digital card (“Observer No. …”), in order of confirmation. The number is personal, cannot be transferred and cannot be chosen. The card is a sign of membership: it has no monetary value, is not a voucher and gives no right to discounts or products, unless a page of the site says otherwise.

Members can reserve drops on the site before the public release. Timing and quantities of each drop are shown on its page and may change. Early access does not guarantee that a garment will be available.

Every member has a personal invite link. Share it only with people who want to receive it: no spam, no posting on swap sites or with misleading messages. The link only shows the number of friends who signed up, never their details. Today invites give no rewards; if they ever do, the rules will be written here first.

Field notes are notes from the court reserved for members, visible in the Profile. They are for personal use: do not copy, republish or share them in full outside the site without permission. Quoting short passages with the source (darceon.it) is allowed.

Members with a card can suggest a playing court with the exact spot on the map, name, city, area and a text (400 characters maximum), up to 3 suggestions a day. Every suggestion stays hidden until the data controller reads it: it may be published, not published or removed at any time, with no obligation to give reasons. Once published, it also appears on the map of courts as a candidate. The site never shows who wrote it. The data controller may reply to you (only you see the reply, in Suggest a court) and may merge two suggestions for the same court: the votes move to the one that remains, and you back it. A published suggestion can become a court page in the archive.

Only public places are described: no addresses with house numbers, emails, links, phone numbers, people's names, insults or advertising. By suggesting a court, you allow Darceon to publish and quote the text on the site and its channels. A suggestion is not a promise: the most backed courts become candidates for the next reports, but the choice remains with the data controller.

• Free and with no commitment. Reserving is not buying: nothing is paid, no sales contract is formed and there is no obligation to buy.
• At most 2 pieces per person per item. They can be cancelled at any time from the Profile.
• Price, release date, delivery and number of pieces have not been decided yet. When they are, whoever reserved will receive a notice and can decide whether to buy.
• A reservation gives members priority but does not guarantee the garment: production and availability may change, and a drop may be postponed or cancelled. In that case reservations are cancelled at no cost to anyone.

Sales. Today the site does not sell: there are only free reservations, so there are no terms of sale. If purchases open, prices, payments, shipping, returns and the right of withdrawal (14 days for online purchases, under the Italian Consumer Code) will be described in terms of sale published beforehand.

The name Darceon, the brand marks (the DARCEON wordmark, the D monogram and the seal, with the orange rim), the T-shirt graphics, the texts, the 3D scenes, the renders and the videos on the site belong to the data controller. They may not be copied, modified, sold or used for products, brands or advertising without written permission. The Darceon brand is not registered: it is used as a de facto distinctive sign and remains protected by the rules on competition and by copyright for the logo and graphics.

Exceptions are third-party content under open licences (T-shirt model, lighting, maps, fonts), listed with author and licence on the Credits page, and the historical sources cited in the history of Parco Braccini.

Sharing links and images of the site on social media, crediting Darceon, is welcome. For everything else write to info@darceon.it or on Instagram @darceonn.

It is not allowed to: try to access other people's accounts or data, get around the anti-bot check or the limits, use automated programs to sign up or reserve, upload or send unlawful content, copy the site in bulk.

The site is offered as it is, free of charge. It may be interrupted for maintenance or for reasons beyond the data controller's control, and its content may change. The T-shirt images are renders and may differ slightly from the real garment, especially in colour.

The data controller is not liable for indirect damage due to the use of the site or its unavailability, within the limits allowed by law: consumer rights and liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence always remain unaffected.

Links to other sites (Instagram, Google, historical sources) lead to pages that the data controller does not control.

Personal data is processed as described in the privacy notice; cookies and browser storage in the cookie policy. Newsletter, promotional communications and profiling are separate, optional consents: they are not needed to sign up, reserve or suggest a court, and can be changed from your Profile at any time.

These terms may change, for example when purchases open. The date and version number at the top show the latest version; your account keeps a record of the version you accepted and the date. Important changes are communicated to members by email before they take effect.

Italian law applies. For disputes with a consumer, the competent court is that of the place where the consumer resides or is domiciled, as provided by the Italian Consumer Code; in other cases, the court of Turin.
