Belong Italy, Terms and Conditions
These terms are the agreement between you and Belong Europe ApS for the use of Belong Italy. By downloading or using the app you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the app.
Who we are
Belong Italy is made by Belong Europe ApS, a company registered in Copenhagen, Denmark, CVR number 46649044, reachable at hello@belongeurope.com.
What Belong Italy is
Belong Italy is a personal tracker. It helps you see your own distance to Italian citizenship by organising the information you enter against published rules, and by showing honestly which part of the journey you control and which part you do not. Everything you enter stays on your device.
Belong Italy is not legal advice
Belong Italy is an information tool, not a lawyer and not an authority. Citizenship law changes, administrative practice varies, and this app may contain errors or be out of date. Nothing here creates any right, decides anything, or binds any authority.
Verify your own situation with the bodies that actually decide it: the Ministero dell’Interno, which decides citizenship applications, your prefettura for the file itself, the questura and your comune for residence and the anagrafe, and the recognised certifying bodies — CILS, CELI, PLIDA and CERT.IT — for the B1 language certificate. You use Belong Italy at your own risk, and decisions about your file remain yours.
There is no citizenship test to practise
Italian naturalisation asks for a language certificate at level B1 from a recognised body, not a civics or citizenship-knowledge exam. Belong Italy therefore ships no practice test, and nothing in the app simulates one. The Practice tab points you to the official certifying bodies; only a certificate from a recognised body counts, and an app cannot certify your Italian.
What if is a sandbox
The What if feature runs the same rules on a hypothetical copy of your situation so you can see how a decision would move your finish line. It is an illustration, not a prediction, not a promise, and not a commitment by any authority. Nothing you try in it is saved.
Documents you attach
You choose what to attach on the Path tab, and what you attach is your responsibility. We do not read, verify, validate or store your documents, and attaching one does not satisfy a requirement or prove anything to anyone — only the authority deciding your case can do that. The count of requirements that carry a document is a count of attachments, nothing more.
Belong Italy is not a backup service. Documents live only on the iPhone you added them on. If you remove one, delete the app, or lose or replace the device, it is gone and we cannot recover it, because we never had it. Your own device backup will not save it either: documents are deliberately kept out of that backup, so restoring a new phone does not bring them back. Keep your own copies of anything that matters.
Dates, reminders and alerts
What’s coming lists dates worked out from what you have entered and from rules the authorities have published. A date shown as the earliest possible one is a projection, not a commitment: rules change, calendars change, and nothing shown here binds any authority.
Alerts for those dates are local notifications scheduled on your device and delivered by iOS at its discretion. They can arrive late, be held back by your system settings, a Focus mode or Low Power Mode, or not arrive at all, and they stop if you turn notifications off. Do not rely on them as your only reminder. Meeting a registration window, a renewal or any other deadline remains yours.

No warranty
Belong Italy is provided as is and as available. We do not warrant that it is accurate, complete, uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for any particular purpose, and we do not warrant that any date it shows will match the decision you eventually receive.
Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, Belong Europe ApS is not liable for any loss or harm arising from your use of Belong Italy or your reliance on the information in it, including any missed deadline, refused application or delayed decision. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
Acceptable use
Use Belong Italy personally and lawfully. Do not copy, resell, redistribute or sublicense it, do not reverse engineer it, and do not use it to mislead anyone about their legal position or to provide immigration advice as a service.
Intellectual property
The app, its text, its rule summaries and its design belong to Belong Europe ApS. References to official sources are for information; the names and marks of the Ministero dell’Interno, the certifying bodies and The Local belong to their respective owners, and none of them endorses Belong Italy.
Changes
We may update these terms. The current version always lives on this page with its effective date, and material changes are announced in the app.
Governing law
These terms are governed by Danish law. If you are a consumer, you keep the mandatory protections of the law of the country where you live, and nothing here removes them.
