Navigation data

Our systems and / or those of third-party companies, with which we have entered into direct or indirect collaboration agreements, may record various connection data concerning your browsing session: IP address, date and time of access, address of the web pages that you have consulted (URL), any web page of origin (referrer), browser and operating system used. Such data may allow to trace the identity of the owner of the Internet connection only following the investigations carried out by the judicial authorities.

For more information about cookies and their use by Federica Argentati and third-party companies, please consult the detailed notice.

Data provided voluntarily

In order to access certain services or performances, it may be required to the users to fill in forms (such as, for example, contact forms or registration forms) that provide the communication of personal data (for example the email address). This supply of data, sometimes, can be performed by the user in a simplified way through “connection” procedures with external services (such as Facebook Connect) which – after the explicit consent of the interested party – will automatically and electronically transmit only and exclusively the data requested for the purpose of registering for the requested service. The acquisition of data, where required, is the prerequisite for accessing the services offered by our site. Moreover, those that are sent via electronic mail (e-mail) to contact any employee of our structure are considered as “data provided voluntarily”.

Purpose of the processing

We explain to you why we acquire and process your data in relation to specific purposes. We use navigation data, cookies and personal data that are voluntarily given to us by users only for the purposes for which they were collected.

Log files and similar

For security reasons, and in order to fulfill specific legal obligations, the technical connection data of users are recorded in text files that are stored on our server in order to monitor the correct functioning of the site and to protect our systems from any cyber-attacks. Other software on our systems could perform similar operations for purposes related to IT security.

Third party widgets

On some pages of the website, there may be tools provided by third parties such as videos, elements taken from social networks and other remote functions. These tools can interact with the user’s system by sending cookies.

Contact / Registration Forms

Personal data provided voluntarily by filling the appropriate forms are processed:

  • to be able to provide the requested services (such as, for example, membership in the Forum or other network services);
  • to be able to provide the newsletter service or send information and / or advertising communications;
  • to be able to process specific user requests automatically and / or manually (for example, to respond to contact requests sent through the appropriate forms);
  • to carry out billing operations (in the case of paid services) and / or to fulfill specific legal obligations.

Newsletter / DEM

By registering through the appropriate forms available on various pages of the website, the user’s email address is acquired and inserted in a list of contacts to which e-mail messages can be sent, with or without periodic frequency. The e-mail messages may contain information, including commercial and promotional information. The contents of the communication may also include advertisements from third-party companies (DEM). The User’s email address could also be added to this list as a result of registering for certain services (such as the Forum).

Legal basis of the processing

We explain the legal basis of the various data treatments carried out by the website the validity requirements of your possible consent to the processing of your personal data. For some treatments, the consent of the interested party is not required. In particular, it is not possible to give or deny consent regarding the registration of log files, the measurement of website traffic and the sending of cookies strictly necessary for the technical and / or commercial operation of the website. In all these cases, in fact, there is a legitimate interest of Federica Argentati for the proper functioning of his online business. In all the other circumstances, the processing is based on the consent of the interested party who is free to give it or not. The consent of the interested party is essential for marketing purposes such as, for example, the sending of commercial information by e-mail or the acceptance of profiling cookies to show personalized advertising messages.

Consent of the interested party

In all the cases in which the user’s consent is required for the processing, the consent must be informed, free and unconditional. However, failure to provide the data makes impossible to obtain certain services or performances (for example, you cannot subscribe to the newsletter service if you do not give your consent).
