2 – DATA PROCESSING METHODS AND ANY FURTHER STORAGE OF DATA

The Data will be collected and processed in compliance with the principles of fairness, lawfulness, and transparency, through manual or automated methods, always within the limits of the processing purposes described above and, in any case, in order to ensure the security and confidentiality of the Data. With respect to the storage of the data, the Controller has indicated the respective timescales in correspondence with each processing activity and it undertakes, in any case, to base the Data processing on principles of adequacy and minimisation, checking annually the need to store the Data for a period of time not exceeding what is necessary for the achievement of the purposes for which they were collected and processed. The Controller may store the Data to fulfil regulatory obligations, or to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim. Upon achieving the purposes for which the Data were collected and processed, the Controller will take the appropriate measures to make the Data anonymous, so as to prevent your identification, notwithstanding its right to continue using the Data anonymously for statistical purposes.

 

3 – ANY AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING PROCESSES

As indicated above, the Controller carries out, based upon its legitimate interest, a classification of its customers for the purpose of sending information of a commercial nature on collections, exhibitions and events targeted relative to the needs of a certain category or bracket of which you form part. That process is carried out by breaking down the data subjects into non-invasive and non-discriminatory categories, such as country of residence (residents in the Lombardy region when, for example, identifying a category of data subjects interested in the opening of a new store in Milan), age bracket (e.g. customers aged from 50 to 70 if, for example, the product is aimed statistically at this age bracket), and purchase channels of Products (e.g. differentiating communications sent to mainly web customers from those who prefer physical stores). Following this analysis, which may also be carried out in automated form, the user may be classified into one or more groups with different characteristics and may receive from the Controller communications dedicated to that category which the Controller believes are in line with its requirements. In relation to this processing, the Controller has successfully conducted a balancing test in order to determine that the processing linked to the classification in question is carried out on the legal basis of the legitimate interest of the Controller in achieving maximum efficiency in its marketing activities.  The Controller may also, with your consent, analyse your consumer habits over time, to assess in more depth what may be possible with a simple categorisation, such as products or initiatives responding to your tastes and preferences (for example, if, during a timeframe of 2 years, you demonstrate interest in one of our particular products or the line created by one of our designers, we will send you offers dedicated to that type of product and not others in which you are not interested or that do not meet your tastes and preferences). In this way we will be able to offer you a unique and customised purchasing experience even if you come to see us at one of our showrooms. In that case, our sales assistant will be able to recognise you and direct you in the most efficient manner to the product that you prefer. Of course, you can always ask our sales staff to show you different proposals. It is noted that the Controller has carried out a specific impact assessment of the personal data processing necessary for the profiling activities to guarantee respect of the principles of the GDPR, including non-discrimination, effectiveness, and absence of harmful consequences for the data subject.

 

4 – PERSONS AUTHORISED TO PROCESS THE DATA

All Data processing is carried out in countries of the European Union.

If the Data need to be transferred to a Third Country, for example, to manage relationships with customers that have interests in countries other than the European Union, the Controller undertakes to:

You also have the right to object at any time to the processing of the Data, immediately or after the transfer of the Data, in relation to the sending by the Controller of unsolicited communications containing marketing offers related to Products similar to those already purchased (soft spam) directly to the email address provided during the purchase of Products, pursuant to Art. 130, paragraph 4 of Italian Legislative Decree no. 196/2003, as amended by Italian Legislative Decree no. 101/2018.
