Method and place of the data processing

Data processing methods

The Data Controller adopts appropriate security measures to prevent the unauthorised access, disclosure, modification or destruction of the Personal Data.

The processing is carried out using computerised and/or digital tools, with organisational methods and logics that are strictly related to the stated purposes. In addition to the Data Controller, in some cases, other subjects involved in the organisation of this Application (administrative, commercial, marketing, legal, system administrators) or external subjects (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, may have access to the Data. The updated list of Data Processors can always be requested from the Data Controller.

Legal basis for the data processing

The Data Controller processes Personal Data relating to the User if one of the following conditions exists:

• the User has given consent for one or more specific purposes; Note: in some jurisdictions, the Data Controller may be allowed to process Personal Data without the User’s consent or another of the legal bases specified below, until the User objects (“opts out”) of such processing. However, this does not apply where the processing of Personal Data is governed by European legislation on the protection of Personal Data;
• processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with the User and/or the performance of pre-contractual measures;
• the processing is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation to which the Data Controller is subject;
• processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of public powers vested in the Data Controller;
• the processing is necessary for the pursuit of the legitimate interest of the Data Controller or of third parties.

However, the Data Controller may be asked to clarify the specific lawful basis for any processing and to specify in particular whether the processing is for legal purposes, in execution of a contract or necessary for its conclusion.

The Data are processed at the operational headquarters of the Data Controller and at any other place where the parties involved in the processing are located. For more information, contact the Owner.
The User’s Personal Data may be transferred to a country other than the one in which the User is located. For further information on the location of the processing, please refer to the section on details of the processing of Personal Data.

The User is entitled to obtain information on the legal basis for the transfer of Data outside the European Union or to an international organisation under public international law or formed by two or more countries, such as the UN, as well as on the security measures adopted by the Data Controller to protect the Data.

Period of retention

The Data are processed and stored for the time required by the purposes for which they were collected.

Therefore:

• Personal Data collected for purposes related to the performance of a contract between the Data Controller and the User will be retained until the performance of that contract is completed.
• Personal Data collected for purposes related to the legitimate interest of the Data Controller will be retained until such interest is satisfied. The User may obtain further information on the legitimate interest pursued by the Data Controller in the relevant sections of this document or by contacting the Data Controller.

When the processing is based on the User’s consent, the Data Controller may keep the Personal Data longer until such consent is revoked. Furthermore, the Data Controller may be obliged to keep Personal Data for a longer period in compliance with a legal obligation or by order of an authority.

At the end of the storage period, Personal Data will be erased. Therefore, at the end of this period, the right of access, deletion, rectification and the right to data portability can no longer be exercised.
