Michele Stecca (hereinafter also referred to as the “Data Controller”), in his capacity as Data Controller of Elbrus & Blanc and the website Italviet, hereby informs users, pursuant to Articles 13 and 14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”), of the following.
This website respects and protects the privacy of visitors and users, making every reasonable and proportionate effort to safeguard their rights.
This Privacy Policy applies exclusively to the online activities of this website and is valid for its visitors and users.
Its purpose is to provide maximum transparency regarding the information collected by the website and how such information is used.
1. Legal Basis for Data Processing
This website processes personal data based on the user’s consent. By using or browsing this website, visitors and users expressly approve this Privacy Policy and consent to the processing of their personal data in accordance with the methods and purposes described below, including any disclosure to third parties where necessary for the provision of services.
The provision of data and the related consent are optional. Users may refuse or withdraw consent at any time. However, refusal or withdrawal of consent may result in the inability to provide certain services and may negatively affect the browsing experience.
2. Data Collected and Purposes
Personal data are processed by the Data Controller in the course of its economic and commercial activities for purposes related to the establishment, management, and execution of commercial relationships.
In particular, data provided by users are processed, mainly through electronic means, for the following purposes:
a) exclusively in aggregated and anonymous form, to verify the proper functioning of the website. Such information does not allow identification of individual users in any way;
b) for security purposes (spam filters, firewalls, virus detection). Automatically recorded data may include personal data such as IP addresses, which may be used, in accordance with applicable laws, to prevent damage to the website or to other users, or to detect unlawful activities. These data are never used for user identification or profiling, are not cross-referenced with other data, and are not disclosed to third parties, except where required for site protection.
Collected data are retained only for the time strictly necessary to achieve the stated purposes. Personal data will never be disclosed to third parties, except in the case of legal obligations or where necessary for security or website optimization services.
