The computer systems and software procedures used to operate this website acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This information is not collected in order to be associated with identified interested parties, but by its very nature could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users to be identified. This category of data includes the IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users who connect to the site, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation addresses of the resources requested, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and IT environment. These data are used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the site, to check its correct functioning, to identify anomalies and/or abuses, and are deleted immediately after processing. The data could be used to ascertain responsibility in the event of hypothetical computer crimes against the Data Controller or third parties.

5. Legal basis for the processing of User data

Each processing is justified by one of the following legal prerequisites:

  • The processing is necessary to execute the existing contract between the parties. In this case, the provision of personal data is optional, but failure to provide it means that the contract cannot be concluded and the requested service cannot be performed;
  • The processing is necessary to fulfil a legal obligation. In this case, the provision of the data is compulsory and its absence will make it impossible to conclude the contract and execute the requested service;
  • Processing is necessary for the pursuit of the legitimate interest of the Data Controller, provided that the interests or fundamental rights and freedoms of the User requiring the protection of personal data do not prevail. In this case, the provision of data is optional.
  • Processing is only possible if the User has given consent for specific purposes. In this case, the provision of data is optional, and the User may revoke the consent previously given at any time.

  • Duly appointed data processors who provide specific processing or ancillary services on behalf of the Data Controller and under its instructions (e.g. web hosting, system administrators);
