The Personal Data we process is as follows:

a. Browsing data

In normal operation, the computer systems and software procedures used to operate the Site acquire certain Personal Data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This is information not collected for association with identified data subjects, but information which, by its very nature could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, permit the identification of users. This category of data includes IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users connecting to the Site, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) addresses of the requested resources, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and IT environment. This data is used in the form of server side “logs” for the sole purpose of obtaining information on the use of the Site and to check its correct operation, to permit – given the architecture of the systems used – the correct provision of services, security and to ascertain liability in the event of possible cyber-crime against the Site or third parties; this data is processed in accordance with the GDPR and kept for the time strictly necessary to achieve the aforementioned purpose.

b. Data provided voluntarily by the user

The Site allows users to provide personal information voluntarily, for example, through registration on contact forms, requests for services or information, and the facultative, explicit and voluntary transmission of e-mail to the addresses indicated on the Site, etc. The Privacy Policy therefore applies to the processing of any Personal Data provided voluntarily through the Site. When you using our websites, please not provide any Personal Data falling within the special categories of personal data as defined in art. 9 of the Regulation, quoted verbatim as “[…] data suitable for revealing racial or ethnic origin, political opinions, religious or philosophical beliefs, or trade union membership, as well as processing genetic data, biometric data intended to uniquely identify a natural person, data relating to the health or sexual life or sexual orientation of the person”.

In the cases you, as a user of the Site, provide personal information about third party you act as an independent data controller, and therefore assume all relevant legal obligations and responsibilities.

Definitions, characteristics and application of the legislation

Through the use of cookies, sites remember your actions and preferences (such as, for example, login data, the chosen language, font size, other display settings, etc.) to avoid having to enter them again when you return to the site or browse its pages. Cookies are used for mainly for authentication purposes, session monitoring and to save information on the activities of users visiting the site and may also contain a unique identification code able to track of the activities of users browsing the site itself, for statistical or advertising purposes.

Some operations would be impossible without the use of cookies, which in certain cases are technically necessary for the site to operate.

In particular, “technical cookies”, cookies used for the sole purpose of transmitting a communication over an electronic communications network, or to the extent strictly necessary to provide a service explicitly requested by the user (for example, for authentication, language preferences), do not require this consent. In short, these cookies are either essential for the operation of the site, or necessary for the activities requested by the user.
