Privacy Policy

In compliance with the obligations arising from national legislation (Legislative Decree of June 30, 2003, No. 196, Personal Data Protection Code) and European legislation (European Regulation for the Protection of Personal Data No. 679/2016, GDPR) and subsequent amendments, this website respects and protects the privacy of visitors and users, making every possible and proportionate effort not to infringe on the rights of users.

The current privacy policy applies exclusively to the online activities of this website and is valid for the visitors/users of the site. It does not apply to information collected through channels other than this website. The purpose of the privacy policy is to provide maximum transparency regarding the information that the site collects and how it is used.

 

Data Collected and Purposes
Collected Information: Like all websites, this website also uses log files in which information collected automatically during user visits is stored. The collected information may include:

- Internet Protocol (IP) address;
- Type of browser and device parameters used to connect to the site;
- Name of the Internet Service Provider (ISP);
- Date and time of visit;
- Referring and exit webpage of the visitor;
- Possibly the number of clicks.

The aforementioned information is processed automatically and collected solely in aggregated form for the purpose of verifying the correct functioning of the website, and for security reasons (from May 25, 2018, such information will be processed based on the legitimate interests of the data controller). For security purposes (anti-spam filters, firewall, virus detection), automatically recorded data may also include personal data such as the IP address, which may be used, in accordance with applicable laws, to block attempts to damage the website itself or harm other users, or engage in harmful activities or criminal activities. Such data is never used for the identification or profiling of the user, but only for the protection of the website and its users (from May 25, 2018, such information will be processed based on the legitimate interests of the data controller).

If the website allows for the submission of comments, or in the case of specific services requested by the user, the website automatically detects and records certain identifying data of the user, including the email address. Such data is considered voluntarily provided by the user at the time of requesting the service. By submitting a comment or other information, the user expressly accepts the privacy policy, and in particular consents to the contents submitted being freely disseminated to third parties.

The data received will be used exclusively for the provision of the requested service and only for the time necessary to provide the service. The information that users of the site choose to make public through the services and tools made available to them is provided knowingly and voluntarily by the user, relieving this website of any liability regarding any violations of the law. It is the user's responsibility to verify that they have the permissions to input personal data of third parties or contents protected by national and international laws.

The data collected by the website during its operation is used exclusively for the purposes indicated above and stored for the time strictly necessary to carry out the specified activities. In any case, the data collected by the website will never be provided to third parties, for any reason, unless it is a legitimate request from the judicial authority and only in cases provided for by law.

 

Cookie
As is common practice on all websites, this site also uses cookies, which are small text files that allow storing information about visitors' preferences, to improve the functionality of the site, to simplify navigation by automating procedures (e.g., login, site language), and for analyzing the use of the site.

Session cookies are essential for distinguishing between logged-in users and are useful for preventing a requested functionality from being provided to the wrong user, as well as for security purposes to prevent cyber attacks on the site. Session cookies do not contain personal data and last only for the duration of the current session, i.e., until the browser is closed. Consent is not required for them.

I functionality cookie utilizzati dal sito sono strettamente necessari per l’uso del sito, in particolare sono collegati ad una espressa richiesta di funzionalità da parte dell’utente (come il Login), per i quali non occorre alcun consenso.

Disabling Cookies
Cookies are tied to the browser used and CAN BE DISABLED DIRECTLY FROM THE BROWSER, thus refusing/revoking consent to the use of cookies. It should be noted that disabling cookies may prevent the correct use of some functions of the site itself.
Instructions for disabling cookies can be found on the following web pages:

Third-Party Cookies
This website also acts as an intermediary for third-party cookies, used to provide additional services and functionality to visitors and to improve the use of the website itself, such as social media buttons or videos. This site has no control over third-party cookies, which are entirely managed by third parties. As a result, information about the use of these cookies and their purposes, as well as instructions for possible disabling, are provided directly by the third parties on the pages indicated below.

In particular, this website uses cookies from the following third parties:

- Google Analytics: a tool provided by Google that uses cookies (performance cookies) to collect anonymous browsing data (IP addresses truncated to the last octet) and exclusively aggregates it for the purpose of analyzing user interaction with the website, compiling reports on website activity, and providing other information, including the number of visitors and pages visited. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google's behalf. Google will not associate IP addresses with any other data held by Google. Data transmitted to Google is stored on Google servers in the United States.

Pursuant to a specific agreement with Google, which is designated as the data processor, Google undertakes to process the data according to the requests of the Data Controller (see at the bottom of the policy), issued through the settings of the software. Based on these settings, advertising options and data sharing are disabled.

Further information about Google Analytics cookies can be found on the Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Websites page.

Choices and Obligations: Users can selectively disable data collection by Google Analytics by installing the appropriate component provided by Google (opt-out) on their browser.

- YouTube: a platform owned by Google for sharing videos, which uses cookies to collect information about users and browsing devices. The videos on the website do not generate cookies upon accessing the page, as the "privacy-enhanced mode (no cookie)" option has been set, according to which YouTube does not store information about visitors unless they voluntarily play the video.

For further information on the use of data and its processing by Google, it is recommended to review the information on the dedicated page provided by Google, as well as the page on Google's Data Usage Policies when using partner websites or apps.

 

Important Information
This website may share some of the collected data with services located outside the European Union area. Specifically, with Google, Facebook, and Microsoft (LinkedIn) through social plugins and the Google Analytics service. The transfer is authorized based on specific decisions of the European Union and the Italian Data Protection Authority, particularly decision 1250/2016 (Privacy Shield - here is the informative page of the Italian Data Protection Authority), so no further consent is required. The aforementioned companies ensure their adherence to the Privacy Shield.

Processing is carried out using computers and/or IT-enabled tools, with organizational methods and logics strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the data controller, in some cases, other parties may have access to the data, such as categories of personnel involved in the organization of the website (administrative, commercial, marketing, legal, system administrators) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, postal couriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communication agencies).
