Data processing is carried out using IT and/or telematic tools, with organizational methods and logic strictly related to the purposes indicated. In addition to the controller, in some cases, data may be accessible to other persons involved in the operation of this website (such as administrative, commercial, marketing, legal, and system administration personnel) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, mail carriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communications agencies) appointed, if necessary, as data processors by the controller. The updated list of processors can always be requested from the data controller.

The controller processes personal data related to the user if one of the following conditions applies:

The user has given consent for one or more specific purposes. Note: In some jurisdictions, the controller may be allowed to process personal data without user consent or another of the legal bases specified below until the user objects to (“opts out of”) such processing. However, this is not applicable when the processing of personal data is subject to European data protection regulation;;
Processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with the user and/or for pre-contractual measures;
Processing is necessary to fulfill a legal obligation to which the controller is subject;
Processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority vested in the controller;
Processing is necessary for the legitimate interests pursued by the controller or by a third party.

It is always possible to request clarification from the controller regarding the specific legal basis for each processing operation and, in particular, whether processing is based on law, required by a contract, or necessary to conclude a contract.
