Purposes of personal data collection
We process your information, including your personal data, for the following purposes:
– Website operation: You can visit the website and learn about our services without sharing your identity with us. However, to ensure the secure and stable operation of our website, we collect technical data that allows us to at least identify you in the future. The computer systems responsible for operating this site, in fact, acquire certain data in their normal operation, the transmission of which is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This category of data includes IP addresses or domain names of the computers and terminals used by users, the time of the request, the method used in submitting 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 related to the user’s operating system and computer environment.

How we process and protect personal data
We collect and process personal data reliably and responsibly by adopting security measures to maintain their confidentiality, integrity, and availability, to protect them from unauthorized or unlawful processing, and to mitigate risks of loss, unintended alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or unauthorized access. However, it is not possible to completely exclude security risks, and a certain degree of residual risk is inevitable.
We retain personal data only for the duration necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected, where we have a legitimate interest in their retention for legal and technical reasons, such as for backups and document management.
If there are no legal or contractual obligations to the contrary, we will delete or anonymize your data at the end of the retention or processing period within our normal processes.
To ensure confidentiality, integrity, and availability arising from the personal data contract, we adopt appropriate technological and organizational measures. Depending on our risk assessment, we implement access controls and procedures for the periodic evaluation and verification of the effectiveness of these measures.
If there are no specific legal provisions for retention, we usually process personal data for the duration of the commercial relationship or contractual period and then, depending on the applicable legal basis, for another ten years or longer.
