Data collected and purpose of processing

The Site collects personal data for the following purposes:

  1. Navigation Data (Technical Data): The computer systems and software procedures used to operate the Site acquire, during their normal operation, certain personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This category includes IP addresses, browser type, operating system, domain name and access times. These data, which are not collected in order to be associated with identified data subjects, are used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the Site and to check that it is working properly. The data could be used to ascertain responsibility in the event of hypothetical computer crimes.

  2. Data provided voluntarily by the user: The optional, explicit and voluntary sending of data via contact forms (such as the one in the “Contact” section) or subscription to the newsletter entails the subsequent acquisition of the email address and any other personal data entered, which is necessary to process the request (e.g. first name, last name). Specific information will be presented on the pages where contact forms are present.

  3. Cookies and similar technologies: The Site uses Cookies, as described in detail in our Cookie Policy (EU)

Legal Basis for Treatment

The legal basis for the processing of data is:

  • The performance of a contract or the taking of pre-contractual measures (to answer your contact request).

  • Your explicit consent (for newsletter subscription and for non-technical marketing/analytical cookies).

  • The legitimate interest of the Controller (for Site security, anonymous statistical analysis and improvement of our services).

Third Party Services and Data Transfer

The Site makes use of services provided by third parties that may collect and process data. These parties act as Data Processors (ex art. 28 GDPR) or autonomous holders.
