The legal basis legitimising the processing of personal data through cookies is art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, that is, the need to provide the user with the service requested.

Without prejudice to the above, the Controller informs users that they may use Your Online Choices. Through that service it is possible to manage the tracking preferences of most advertising tools. The Controller therefore recommends using that resource in addition to the information provided in this document.
Data retention period
Cookies installed through the site are temporary and are deleted automatically on the expiry indicated in this notice. The data collected will be kept in accordance with this notice or, for third-party cookies, with the respective privacy policies.
How data is processed
The personal data collected by Obicon are kept and stored both on electronic media and on paper, organised in databases, and on any other suitable medium. Processing takes place using electronic tools but does not involve automated decision-making. Specific security measures are observed to prevent data loss, unlawful or incorrect use and unauthorised access.
Provision of personal data
Providing the data collected and processed through technical cookies is a contractual obligation: failure to provide personal data will make it impossible for Obicon to allow browsing on the site. The installation of technical cookies from the site can be prevented through the browser settings, but this may make the site or some of its services unusable.
Parties who may come to know the personal data
Obicon may disclose users’ personal data solely and exclusively to the following categories of parties:
- the company’s own staff;
- parties entitled and with an interest in accessing them under provisions of law;
- companies, associations or professional firms that provide services and activities on behalf of the Controller, such as the supply of ICT services (for example web hosting services, cloud providers and so on), compliance with legal obligations, and any organisational and administrative need relating to the activities carried out by the Controller.
The names of the parties who may come to know users’ personal data, as data processors, may be requested from Obicon by writing to the contact details given above.
Transfer of data outside the European Economic Area or to international organisations
Users’ personal data will not be transferred to countries outside the European Economic Area, nor to international organisations.
Links to third-party sites or services
This notice is given only for the processing of personal data carried out through this site or the tools it provides, and not for other websites that the user may consult through links, whose operators act as independent data controllers. Users are therefore invited to read the privacy notices of third parties carefully before accessing their services.
Rights of the data subject
In relation to the processing of personal data governed by this notice, the user may exercise at any time the rights provided for by EU Regulation no. 679/2016 (GDPR).
- Right to be informed of any processing of their personal data (pursuant to art. 13 GDPR). The user has the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not processing of their personal data is taking place and, in that case, to be informed of every aspect of the processing operations, including, for example, information about: the data processor (that is, the party that processes personal data on behalf of the Controller); any other recipient of the data (to whom the personal data may be disclosed); the purposes and the legal basis; the types of data processed; the data retention period; the transfer of personal data to third countries or international organisations.
- Right of access to their personal data, together with the right to rectify inaccurate data and the right to complete incomplete data.
- Right to erasure (the so-called right to be forgotten) under the conditions laid down in art. 17 GDPR, for example when the personal data are no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected or otherwise processed.
- Right to restriction of processing to the purposes and/or methods for which their personal data were collected, under the conditions set out in art. 18 GDPR.
- Right to data portability, that is, the right to receive a copy of all the personal data provided to the Controller, or to transmit such data to another Controller without hindrance.
- Right to withdraw consent, where consent was given to legitimise the processing of personal data. This right may be exercised at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent given before its withdrawal.
- Right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, if they believe that the processing concerning them infringes the legislation in force. In that case they should contact the authority of the member state where they habitually reside, where they work, or where the alleged infringement took place. The contact details of the Italian supervisory authority are on the website of the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali).
- Right to object to the processing of personal data where the processing is necessary for the performance of a task carried out in the public interest, is necessary for the pursuit of a legitimate interest of the controller, or is for direct marketing purposes, including profiling.
To exercise the rights listed above, the data subject may send a specific request by e-mail to privacy@obicon.it. Obicon will reply within a maximum of 30 days.
