The Owner undertakes to adopt all appropriate security measures to prevent the loss and alteration of personal data, as well as any illicit and unauthorized use of the same.

The data will be processed exclusively by persons authorized by the Data Controller, including any data controllers, representatives and public bodies for the fulfillment of the obligations established by law, who carry out the respective processing activities as independent data controllers.

The subjects authorized by the Owner who may process the data include, for example: collaborators of the commercial and legal departments, as well as third-party technical service providers, hosting providers and IT companies (this list is not to be considered exhaustive).

E - Place of treatment

The treatments related to the services of the web portal are carried out by identified and expressly designated personnel based on the specific purposes of the services requested and subscribed to.

For the treatments in question, the Data Controller may avail itself of the help of external companies, consultants, consortia, software and service providers operating, through identified and appointed personnel, within the scope of the intended purposes and in such a way as to guarantee maximum security and confidentiality of the data. In other cases, the personal data collected will not be disclosed to third parties, unless express consent is given by the interested party, except in cases where communication to third parties is necessary to fulfill obligations imposed by laws, regulations or provisions of the supervisory authorities, or is essential to protect the rights of other users or of the website itself.

Personal data will be processed and stored, exclusively for the purposes indicated above and to store and archive them in a secure manner, on remote servers managed by industry-leading providers who ensure compliance with high standards of protection regarding the processing of personal data.

This may involve the transfer of data to non-EU countries, where all or part of the aforementioned servers may be located.

In particular, personal data may be transferred outside the European Union to the company “Shopify” ( https://it.shopify.com/ and https://it.shopify.com/legal/privacy ), an e-commerce plug-in used by the Site managed by the Data Controller.

The processing and storage of data by the aforementioned provider will take place in a third country that is “adequate” pursuant to the decision taken by the European Commission, in particular the decision on the adequacy of the protection provided by the Canadian Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act or Privacy Shield certification (USA), or on the basis of a contractual obligation or standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission, or binding corporate rules approved through the specific procedure referred to in art. 47 GDPR.

For the transfer of data to non-EU countries, as a rule it is not necessary to wait for the national authorization of the Guarantor. However, the authorization of the Guarantor will still be necessary if a controller wishes to use specific contractual clauses, not recognized as adequate by decision of the European Commission or administrative agreements stipulated between public authorities.
