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

Legal basis of processing

This site processes data based on consent. By using or browsing this site, visitors and users explicitly approve this privacy policy and consent to the processing of their personal data in relation to the methods and purposes described below, including any disclosure to third parties if necessary for the provision of a service. Providing data and thus consent to the collection and processing of data is optional; the User can deny consent and can revoke at any time a consent already given (through the Contact link at the bottom of the page).

If the site allows comments or in the case of specific services requested by the user, the site automatically detects and records certain user identification data, including the email address. These data are voluntarily provided by the user at the time of requesting the provision of the service. By entering a comment or other information, the user expressly accepts this privacy policy and in particular agrees that the content entered is freely disseminated to third parties. The data received will be used exclusively for the provision of the requested service and only for the time necessary to provide the service. The information that users of the site deem to make public through the services and tools provided to them is provided by the user knowingly and voluntarily, exempting this site from any liability regarding possible violations of laws. It is the user’s responsibility to verify that they have permission to input personal data of third parties or content protected by national and international regulations. The data collected by the site during its operation are used exclusively for the purposes indicated above and stored for the time strictly necessary to carry out the specified activities.

In particular, this site uses cookies from the following third parties:

Google Analytics: a Google analysis tool that, through the use of cookies (performance cookies), collects anonymous browsing data (truncated IP addresses) and exclusively aggregated data to examine the use of the site by users, compile reports on site activities, and provide other information, including the number of visitors and pages visited. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required by law or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf.

Under these settings, advertising and data sharing options are disabled. Further information on Google Analytics cookies can be found at Google Analytics Cookie Usage on Websites. The user can selectively disable data collection by Google Analytics by installing the appropriate component provided by Google on their browser (opt-out).

Youtube: a platform owned by Google for video sharing, which uses cookies to collect information from users and navigation devices.
