According to the European Regulation on the protection of personal data, legal entities cannot be considered data subjects and therefore the European Regulation does not apply. However, if, in the context of the collection of company data, personal data relating to a natural person is included, this person will be considered a data subject within the meaning of the aforementioned regulation.

2. Legal basis and purpose of handling

The handling of data will be carried out to allow the performance of activities connected with the establishment and management of the service requested to the owner.

The supplying of data is optional, but in any event, failure to do so, will make it impossible to carry out the requests.

The data will be processed lawfully, correctly and with the utmost confidentiality, in compliance with the appropriate security measures as provided for by the Code and Regulations.

The data will be handled using analogue/digital means. Nonetheless, data will not be divulged publicly.

In particular:

Email: the legal basis is the execution of pre-contractual measures carried out at the request of the data subject.

The Data Controller will handle personal data for the time necessary to fulfil the above purposes and in any case for:
