access, disclosure, modification, or unauthorised destruction of the Data.
The Data processing is carried out using computers and/or IT-enabled
tools, following organisational 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 Website (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.

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.
Users are also entitled to learn about the legal basis of Data transfers
to a country outside the European Union or to any international organisation
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.

purposes of the Owner’s legitimate interests shall be retained as long as
needed to fulfil 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 the
expiration of the retention period.
