Methods of processing
The Owner takes appropriate security measures to prevent
unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorized
destruction of the Data. The Data processing is carried out using
computers and/or IT enabled tools,
following organizational procedures and modes strictly related to
the purposes indicated. In addition to the Owner, in some cases,
the Data may be accessible to certain types of persons in charge,
involved with the operation
of this Application (administration, sales, marketing, legal,
system administration) or external parties (such as third-party
technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT
companies, communications
agencies) appointed, if necessary, as Data Processors by the
Owner. The updated list of these parties may be requested from the
Owner at any time.
Legal basis of processing
The Owner may process Personal Data relating to Users if one of
the following applies:
Users have given their consent for one or more specific purposes.
Note: Under some legislations the Owner may be allowed to process
Personal Data until the User objects to such processing
(“opt-out”), without having to rely
on consent or any other of the following legal bases. This,
however, does not apply, whenever the processing of Personal Data
is subject to European data protection law;
provision of Data is necessary for the performance of an agreement
with the User and/or for any pre-contractual obligations thereof;
processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to
which the Owner is subject;
processing is related to a task that is carried out in the public
interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the
Owner;
processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate
interests pursued by the Owner or by a third party.
In any case, the Owner will gladly help to clarify the specific
legal basis that applies to the processing, and in particular
whether the provision of Personal Data is a statutory or
contractual requirement, or a requirement
necessary to enter into a contract.
Place
The Data is processed at the Owner’s operating offices and in any
other places where the parties involved in the processing are
located.
Depending on the User’s location, data transfers may involve
transferring the User’s Data to a country other than their own. To
find out more about the place of processing of such transferred
Data, Users can check the section
containing details about the processing of Personal Data.
If broader protection standards are applicable, Users are also
entitled to learn about the legal basis of Data transfers to a
country outside the European Union or to any international
organization governed by public
international law or set up by two or more countries, such as the
UN, and about the security measures taken by the Owner to
safeguard their Data.
If any such transfer takes place, Users can find out more by
checking the relevant sections of this document or inquire with
the Owner using the information provided in the contact section.
Retention time
Personal Data shall be processed and stored for as long as
required by the purpose they have been collected for.
Therefore:
Personal Data collected for purposes related to the performance of
a contract between the Owner and the User shall be retained until
such contract has been fully performed.
Personal Data collected for the purposes of the Owner’s legitimate
interests shall be retained as long as needed to fulfill such
purposes. Users may find specific information regarding the
legitimate interests pursued by the
Owner within the relevant sections of this document or by
contacting the Owner.
The Owner may be allowed to retain Personal Data for a longer
period whenever the User has given consent to such processing, as
long as such consent is not withdrawn. Furthermore, the Owner may
be obliged to retain
Personal Data for a longer period whenever required to do so for
the performance of a legal obligation or upon order of an
authority.
Once the retention period expires, Personal Data shall be deleted.
Therefore, the right to access, the right to erasure, the right to
rectification and the right to data portability cannot be enforced
after expiration of the retention
period.

provide its Service, comply with its legal obligations, respond to
