GENERAL INFORMATION
This document describes how the Data Controller processes your personal data provided on the Website.
Below are the main ways in which your personal data is processed. The legal basis for processing, whether the provision of data is mandatory, and the consequences of not providing personal data are explained. To best describe your rights, we have specified whether and when a particular personal data processing activity is not carried out. On the Website, you may enter personal data of third parties. In such cases, you guarantee that you have obtained the consent of these third parties to the entry of their personal data. Therefore, you agree to indemnify and hold the Data Controller harmless from any liability.
Registration on the Website
The information and data requested upon registration will be used to allow you to access the reserved area of the Website and to use the online services offered by the Data Controller to registered users. The legal basis for the processing is the necessity for the Data Controller to execute pre-contractual measures adopted at the request of the data subject. The provision of data is optional. However, if you refuse to provide data, it will be impossible to register on the Website.
Purchases on the Website
Your personal data will be processed to allow you to make purchases on the Website. In the event of an online purchase order, the data will be processed to conclude the purchase contract and correctly execute the related operations (and, if necessary, to fulfill fiscal obligations according to sector regulations). This data processing includes the possibility of sending communications (e.g., tracking and order information) through automated tools such as SMS and/or WhatsApp. The legal basis for processing is the obligation of the Data Controller to execute the contract with the data subject or to comply with legal obligations. Regardless of the above (and thus your consent), the Data Controller may process your data for "soft-spam" purposes, as governed by Article 130 of the Privacy Code. This means that the Data Controller will process your email, provided during a purchase on the Website, to directly offer similar products/services unless you object to this processing as outlined in this policy. The legal basis for processing is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller to send such communications. This legitimate interest is equivalent to the data subject's interest in receiving "soft-spam" communications. The Data Controller may send emails to remind users to complete a purchase. The legal basis for this processing is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller to send such communications.
Responding to Your Requests
Your data will be processed to respond to your requests for information. Providing data is optional, but refusal to do so will make it impossible for the Data Controller to respond to your inquiries. The legal basis for processing is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller to respond to user requests. This legitimate interest is equivalent to the user's interest in receiving responses to communications sent to the Data Controller.
Generic Marketing
With your consent, the Data Controller may process the personal data you provide to send you advertising materials and/or newsletters about its own or third-party products. The legal basis for this processing is your consent. Providing personal data for this purpose is entirely optional. Failure to consent to data processing for marketing purposes will make it impossible for you to receive advertising material about the Data Controller's and/or third-party products/services and for the Data Controller to conduct market research, including surveys to measure user satisfaction, and send you newsletters. These communications will be sent to the email address you provided on the Website.
Profiling
With your consent, the Data Controller may process your personal data for profiling purposes, i.e., to analyze your consumption choices by identifying the type and frequency of purchases you make, to send you advertising materials and/or newsletters related to its own or third-party products of specific interest to you. The legal basis for this processing is your consent. Providing data for this purpose is entirely optional. Failure to consent to profiling will make it impossible for the Data Controller to process your commercial profile, detect your purchasing choices and habits, and send you advertising material related to the Data Controller's and/or third-party products of specific interest to you. These communications will be sent to the email address you provided on the Website.
Data Sharing
The Data Controller does not share your personal data with third parties.
Geolocation
The Website does not implement IP address geolocation tools.
Curriculum Vitae
You cannot submit your resume via the Website. Therefore, your data will not be processed for these purposes.
Appointment Booking
The Website does not have third-party appointment booking systems with the Data Controller. Therefore, your data will not be processed for this purpose. However, you can always contact the Data Controller using the contact information provided above.
Communication of Personal Data
In the course of its regular business activities, the Data Controller may communicate your personal data to certain categories of recipients. Article 2 provides a list of recipients to whom the Data Controller communicates your personal data. To facilitate the protection of your rights, Article 2 may specify in some cases when your data is not communicated to third parties.
"Communication" to third parties of personal data is different from "transfer" (covered in the preceding section). In communication, the third party to whom the data is transmitted can only use it for the specific purposes described in the relationship with the Data Controller. In transfer, the third party becomes an independent Data Controller of the personal data. Additionally, transferring your personal data to third parties always requires your consent.
Notwithstanding the above, it is understood that the Data Controller may still use your personal data to fulfill legal obligations.

Article 3 - Retention of Personal Data
3.1 This article describes the duration for which the Data Controller reserves the right to retain your personal data.
Your personal data will be retained only for the time necessary to ensure the correct provision of the services offered through the Website.
- For marketing purposes, personal data will be retained until the consent is withdrawn. For inactive users, personal data will be deleted one year after the last email viewed, if any.
- For customer care purposes, data will be deleted once the assistance service is completed and, in any case, within a maximum of 3 months from the last email exchange with the data subject.
- For the purpose of executing the sales contract, data will be retained for 10 years from the date of receipt of the purchase order. This allows the Data Controller to exercise its right of defense and to demonstrate that the contract was correctly executed.
3.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of article 3.1, the Data Controller may retain your personal data for the time required by specific regulations, as amended from time to time.
Article 4 - Transfer of Personal Data
4.1 The Data Controller is based in a country that presents an adequate level of security from a regulatory point of view. Should the transfer of your personal data occur to a non-EU country for which the European Commission has issued an adequacy decision, the transfer is considered safe from a regulatory point of view. This article 4.1 indicates from time to time the countries to which your personal data may be transferred and where the European Commission has expressed an adequacy decision.
Your personal data may be transferred to the USA based on the European Commission's adequacy decision. With this decision, the European Commission decided that the USA offers data protection equivalent to that offered by the European Union.
To ensure the proper operation of the Website, your personal data may be transferred abroad. This is permitted based on the European Commission's decision of December 20, 2001, No. 2002/2/EC (published in the Official Journal of the European Communities L 2/13 of January 4, 2002), which found that Canada guarantees an adequate level of protection for personal data transferred from the European Union to recipients subject to the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act ("the Canadian Act") of April 13, 2000.
4.2 Notwithstanding the provisions of article 4.1, your data may also be transferred to non-EU countries for which the European Commission has not expressed an adequacy decision. You are therefore invited to regularly review this article 4.2 to determine in which of these countries your data may be transferred.
4.3 In this article, the Data Controller indicates the countries to which it specifically directs its activities. This circumstance may imply the application of the laws of the reference country, along with those that govern the relationship with the user as indicated in the Introduction.
At the user's request, the Data Controller will apply the more favorable regulations provided by the user's national legislation to the processing of personal data.
Article 5 - Rights of the Data Subject
The Data Controller informs you that you have the right to:
- Request access to your personal data and the rectification or deletion of the same or the limitation of the processing that concerns you or to object to their processing, in addition to the right to data portability.
- Withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of the processing based on the consent given before withdrawal.
- Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
The above rights can be exercised by making a request without formalities to the contacts indicated in the Introduction.
