The content of this Website is of a general nature and purely for the purpose of providing information about our services and our activities. In the case of products and services requiring some form of payment, PALAU DE LA MÚSICA will inform users of the specific conditions of sale applying to them.

2. Liability for links to other third-party websites.

Links included on the Website are merely for information purposes, and PALAU DE LA MÚSICA therefore does not check or verify any information, content, products or services provided through these third-party websites.

If the user decides to access any third-party website, they do so entirely on their own responsibility and subject to the conditions of use of these third-party websites.

• Prior written authorisation must be requested from PALAU DE LA MÚSICA.
• The link can only lead to the home page of the Website.
• The link must be absolute and complete, i.e. it must take the user to the Website's own address at http://www.palaumusica.cat and must cover all the home page screen.
• No erroneous or incorrect information must be given about the Website.
• The owner of the page providing the link must act in good faith and not attempt to harm the reputation or good name of PALAU DE LA MÚSICA.

The existence of a link to this Website on a third-party website does not imply the existence of any kind of relationship, collaboration or dependence between PALAU DE LA MÚSICA and the owner of the said website.

4. Liability for technical aspects.

PALAU DE LA MÚSICA does not guarantee continuity of service by the Website, or its permanent availability. PALAU DE LA MÚSICA reserves the right to interrupt access to the Website at any time and without prior notice, for reasons of security, control, maintenance, power supply issues or any other reason.

PALAU DE LA MÚSICA will not be liable for any security errors that may arise, or for any damage caused to the user's information system, files or documents stored on it, where these are caused by a virus from the user's computer, malfunctioning of the browser or the use of old versions of the browser, telephone faults, interference, omissions or disconnections of the operation of the electrical system due to causes not attributable to PALAU DE LA MÚSICA.
