Last updated: June 5, 2026

Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using the website silverpost.eu ("the Archive"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Archive. The Archive is operated by SilverPost Media S.r.l., Via dei Mille 14, 20121 Milano, Italy (Partita IVA IT04812930155).

Nature of the Archive

The Archive is an editorial reference resource providing information about Italian philately and postal history. It does not sell stamps, provide valuations, act as an auction house, or serve as an expert witness service. Nothing in the Archive constitutes professional philatelic advice, financial advice, or legal advice.

Accuracy of content

The Archive makes reasonable efforts to ensure that information is accurate and up to date at the time of publication. Catalogue values cited are drawn from published editions of the Sassone catalogue and auction records and are provided for orientation only. They may not reflect current market conditions. You should consult the current edition of the relevant catalogue and, where significant sums are involved, a registered philatelic dealer or auctioneer.

Disclaimer of liability: To the fullest extent permitted by Italian law, SilverPost Media S.r.l. accepts no liability for decisions made on the basis of information in this Archive, including decisions to buy, sell, or insure philatelic material.

Intellectual property

The editorial text of articles in this Archive is the intellectual property of SilverPost Media S.r.l. and is protected by Italian copyright law (Law No. 633 of 22 April 1941, as amended). You may quote brief passages for non-commercial research or educational purposes with attribution.

Images in the Archive are sourced from Wikimedia Commons and are reproduced under the applicable Creative Commons or public domain licences. Each image is attributed to its Wikimedia Commons source. The licence terms applicable to each image are those recorded in the Wikimedia Commons file description, which takes precedence over any general statement in this document.

External links

The Archive links to external websites including the Sassone catalogue, the FSFI, Wikimedia Commons, and commercial auction houses. These links are provided for information only. SilverPost Media S.r.l. has no control over external websites and accepts no responsibility for their content, privacy practices, or availability.

Contact form

The contact form on the About page is provided to allow editorial enquiries. By submitting the form, you represent that you are not using it for unsolicited commercial communications, and you accept that we may retain your contact details for up to 24 months for the purpose of responding to your enquiry.

Governing law

These Terms of Service are governed by Italian law. Any dispute arising from the use of the Archive that cannot be resolved informally will be referred to the courts of Milan, Italy, which have exclusive jurisdiction.

Changes to these terms

These terms may be updated. The date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the Archive after a revision constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
