Types of Data
The data that may be collected by the platforms include the name, surname, email, IP address, and other data related to the user’s details or the user’s technical access methods to the site. In case of providing sensitive personal data, the consent of the interested party to their processing may be necessary.
Navigation data useful for the technical use of the site is collected necessarily, and its provision is not optional. The user can freely provide the remaining data, including personal data, unless expressly indicated otherwise.
The failure to process some data (e.g., contact details, addresses, data on user behavior or preferences, etc.) may make it impossible to provide certain services by the site.
If the user uses the site to publish or share personal data of third parties, they assume full responsibility: the user guarantees that they have the right to communicate or disclose the personal data of third parties and have informed them in advance of the processing, releasing the site from any liability for their instrumental processing following their communication or disclosure.
Methods and Location of Data Processing
Processing methods
The Data Controller processes the data of the interested parties and users in a lawful and correct manner and adopts appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized destruction of the data. Processing is carried out using computers and/or telematic tools, with organizational methods and logics strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the Data Controller, in some cases, the data may be accessible to certain categories of persons in charge involved in the organization of the site (administrative, commercial, marketing, legal, system administrators) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, postal couriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communication agencies) also appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the Data Controller. The updated list of Data Processors can always be requested from the Data Controller by contacting the address provided above.
Place
The data is processed at the operating offices of the Data Controller.
Times
The data is processed for the time necessary to perform the service requested by the user, and the user can always request its removal from the site’s servers for legitimate reasons.
Purposes of Processing The user’s or interested party’s data is collected to allow:
- the provision of the service and more generally for administrative-accounting or technical purposes;
- the response to specific user requests for information;
- updating the user on new products or services provided by the site or related to particular commercial offers;
- informing the user in the event of maintenance on the site or any malfunctions;
- any commercial profiling of the user;
- displaying advertising banners based on the user’s interests (behavioral targeting/advertising);
- defense by the Site Owner, in court or in the stages leading to its possible establishment, against misuse of the same or related services by the User.
Some of these treatments (sending promotional communications, commercial profiling, behavioral advertising, geolocation, etc.) may require the express consent of the user or the interested party.
Specific information may be presented on the site pages in relation to particular services or data processing provided by the user or the interested party.
About Behavioral Advertising Behavioral advertising is a practice based on online browsing activity, allowing brands to send advertising messages to network users based on their interests. It is secure, transparent, and aimed at giving consumers control.
It involves profiling user navigation and proposing tailored ads based on their interests observed in internet searches. Based on previous browsing paths, online behavioral advertising is different from other forms of online advertising, such as contextual advertising, which is based on the content of the web page being visited at a specific time.
User privacy is protected according to European legislation. In most cases, the information used for targeted ads is not personal in the sense that it does not identify the user in the real world. Data regarding your browsing activity is collected and used anonymously. If, from this analysis, a particular interest is deduced, a cookie, a small file used by most websites to store useful pieces of information to improve internet usage, is saved on your computer. This cookie (not your browsing data) will determine the category of ads you will receive. If personal identification information is used (such as registration data on a site), you will be notified by the website’s privacy policy when you register to use a particular service. You will always have the option to choose whether or not to enjoy more relevant ads, and if personal identification information is used, it will only happen because you have given your consent.
You can control which cookies to accept and which to reject. The company that collects and uses the data will always provide an option for you to refuse behavioral advertising. Click here to disable behavioral advertising.
