Although this information is not collected to be associated with identified data subjects, by its very nature it could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users to be identified.<\/p>\n<p>Such data are used in anonymous form for the sole purpose of obtaining statistical information not associated with any identifying data of the user on the use of the Website and to check its correct functioning, and are deleted immediately after processing. The data could be used to ascertain liability in the event of hypothetical computer crimes against the Website.<\/p>\n<p>The legal basis for processing is therefore the legitimate interest in the operation and security of the Website.<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.

DATA VOLUNTARILY PROVIDED BY THE USER THROUGH THE WEBSITE, IN THE CONTEXT OF CONTACTS WITH THE CONTROLLER<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No provision of personal data by the user is required to consult the site.<br \/>\nHowever, any contact with the Controller, or the optional, explicit and voluntary sending of messages, whether by e-mail or regular mail, to the Controller\u2019s contact details indicated on the site entails the subsequent acquisition of the sender&#8217;s address, including e-mail address, which is necessary to respond to requests, as well as any other personal data included in the relevant communications. Such data will be used solely for the purpose of responding to the user&#8217;s request and may be communicated to third parties only if this is necessary for that purpose.<\/p>\n<p>The processing of personal data will be carried out by staff trained and authorized by the Controller using procedures and suitable technical and IT tools to protect their confidentiality and security.<\/p>\n<p>Such personal data are stored for the time strictly necessary to provide the Data Subject with responses to the requests made, subject to further retention obligations provided for by law.<\/p>\n<p>Personal data will not be disseminated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. METHODS OF PROCESSING AND DISCLOSURE OF DATA TO THIRD PARTIES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The data are not subject to dissemination and may be disclosed to the Controller\u2019s collaborators and suppliers, within the scope of their duties and\/or contractual obligations relating to the performance of the contractual relationship with the Data Subjects; by way of example, among the Controller\u2019s suppliers are banks and credit institutions, insurance companies, legal consultants; software providers and related support, entities that carry out shipping and deliveries; as well as the tax authorities and other bodies for which mandatory communications are required. Processing will be carried out:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>by using manual and automated systems;<\/li>\n<li>by persons or categories of persons authorized to perform the related tasks;<\/li>\n<li>using measures appropriate to ensure the confidentiality of the data and to prevent access by unauthorized third parties.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Without prejudice to what is stated in the specific sections above, in the course of its activities and for the purposes indicated above, the Controller may make use of services provided by third parties who act either as independent controllers or on behalf of and according to the instructions of the Controller, as processors pursuant to Art. 28 of the Regulation. These are entities that provide the Controller with processing or instrumental services.<\/p>\n<p>In general, the Data Subject may request a complete and updated list of the entities appointed as processors by contacting one of the Controller\u2019s contact details.<\/p>\n<p>All entities to whom the right of access to such data is recognized by virtue of regulatory provisions may also have access to the data.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. DATA TRANSFER ABROAD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is no intention to transfer personal data to countries outside the European Union or to International Organizations. Should the Controller, for specific technical reasons, transfer data to third countries, in order to ensure an adequate level of data protection, this will take place in compliance with the following conditions: transfer on the basis of an adequacy decision, transfer subject to appropriate safeguards, binding corporate rules, or application of derogations provided for specific situations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>7. CAREERS AREA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The careers area of the site allows interested parties to apply for any job positions. The processing of personal data takes place as part of the application management process aimed at identifying people to be included in the company&#8217;s workforce and assessing whether they are in line with business needs, followed by potential contact for selection interviews.<\/p>\n<p>For the purposes of the application management process through the dedicated website form, the following categories of data may be processed:<\/p>\n<p>First name, last name, residential address, e-mail, phone number, Curriculum Vitae, free-form information provided by the candidate.<\/p>\n<p>Providing the requested data is optional; however, failure to provide such data will result in the Data Subject being unable to participate in the staff selection process carried out by the Controller.<\/p>\n<p>The legal basis for processing is that it is necessary to take steps prior to entering into a contract within the selection procedure in which the Data Subject participates by voluntarily submitting their information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>8.
