Privacy policy

PRIVACY INFORMATION (simplified)

The purpose of the privacy policy is to provide maximum transparency regarding the information that the site collects and how it uses it.

In compliance with the obligations deriving from national legislation (Legislative Decree 30 June 2003 n.196, Code regarding the protection of personal data, and subsequent amendments to be understood entirely referred to here) and European (European regulation for the protection of personal data no. . 679/2016, GDPR to be understood entirely referred to here), this site respects and protects the privacy of visitors and users, making every possible and proportionate effort not to damage the rights of users.

This site does not publish advertisements, does not use data for the purpose of sending advertising, but it uses third-party services in order to improve the use of the site, third parties that may collect user data and then use them to send advertisements. personalized advertising on other sites. However, this site makes every possible effort to protect the privacy of users and minimize the collection of personal data.

For example, in some cases the site uses web software, which are set up so as not to send cookies (and therefore not to collect data).

The site also uses social web plugins to simplify the sharing of materials on social networks. These plugins are configured so that they send cookies (and therefore possibly collect data) only after the user has activated the service.

By way of information, it is specified that the management of cookies is an extremely complex sector which implies an activity on the part of the site manager (who may not be able to correctly manage third-party cookies) and on the part of the user (who may block essential cookies for the functioning of the site). In order to avoid any form of liability, they recommend the use of special tools. Therefore, for better and simpler protection and to absolutely protect privacy, we recommend the use of anti-tracking tools, which therefore block the tracking by sites.

The non-use of these tools by users is attributable to their free choice so that the continuous navigation and use of the site and the service without the use of specific anti-tracer tools relieves you of any liability, both civil and criminal, the site manager and the data controller.
