In compliance with the obligations deriving from national (Privacy Code) and EU (European General Regulation No. 679/2016) regulations regarding the protection of personal data, ELEN srl respects and protects the privacy of visitors and users.
This privacy policy applies to both the collection of information from the website as well as from other channels.
1 - Legal basis for the processing of personal data
By using or consulting this website, 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 required for the delivery of a service.
Providing data and, therefore, consenting to the collection and processing of the same, is optional. The User can deny consent and may revoke at any time a consent already given. However, denying consent may make it impossible to provide certain services and the browsing experience on the site would be compromised.
The data of registered customers is processed in accordance with the existing agreement with ELEN srl from the time the agreement is executed.
2 – Purposes of processing personal data
Processing of personal data means: recording, storage, organization, consultation, selection, retrieval, comparison, processing, use, modification, interconnection, blocking, transmission, erasure and destruction, transfer or release, or the combination of two or more such operations.
The processing of data collected by the website, in addition to the purposes related, instrumental and required for the supply of the service, is aimed at:
Collection of data and information in an exclusively aggregate and anonymous form in order to verify the proper functioning of the website and to improve the online store and the platform.
None of said information is related to the individual-User of the site, and do not in any manner allow the identification of the same.
Collection of data and information in order to protect the safety of the website and of its users (spam filters, firewalls, virus detection) and to prevent or expose frauds or violations which would be detrimental to the website.
The data is recorded automatically and may possibly also include personal data (IP address) that could be used, in accordance with applicable laws, in order to block attempts to damage the website itself or to harm other users, or in any event harmful activities or activities constituting a crime. Said data is never used for the identification or profiling of the User and is periodically deleted.
Collection of data in order to manage orders, supply products and services, process payments, communicate with users regarding orders, products, services and promotional offers, update logs and, in general, manage user accounts, show contents such as customer wish-lists and reviews and recommend products and services that may be of interest to users.
Transmit the data to third parties who perform activities necessary or instrumental to the operation of the service, and to allow third parties to carry out technical, logistic and other activities on our behalf.
This website uses suppliers for carrying out certain activities, such as processing orders, delivering parcels, sending traditional mail, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, making credit card payments and providing services to customers.
Suppliers only have access to the personal data which is necessary in order to perform their tasks, undertake not to use said data for other purposes and are held to process personal data in accordance with applicable laws. This type of data is retained only for the period of time required for the supply of the service.
Execute newsletters for customers who registered by means of the website to a specific web page containing the registration form and the consent for the processing of mandatory data. Said page, or the user section (in addition to a specific link at the bottom of the newsletter), allows automatic cancellation from the newsletter. Registrations through written consent issued directly to the Data Controller can be requested to ELEN srl
3 – Collected data
This site collects user data in two ways.
While users are browsing, the following information, which is stored in the site log files, can be collected:
This information is used to analyze user trends and collect data in aggregate form, to manage and guarantee the safety of the website, and in no way identifies the User.
The website can collect other data in case of voluntary use of the services by users, such as comments, communications (chat, contact forms and email), purchases (cart) sections:
This information is provided voluntarily by the User at the time of requesting the service or by adding comments and will be used exclusively for the supply of the service requested and processed only for the time required to provide said service.
Fiscal data is necessary in order to make use of the purchased services and for billing purposes.
The data collected by the site is not shared with third parties, unless lawfully requested by judicial authorities and only if required by law. The data, however, may be provided to third parties if this is necessary for the supply of a specific service requested by the User, or for tax purposes or for the implementation of security checks or optimization of the site.
4 – Location of processing
The information collected by the website is processed at the head office of the Data Controller and at the data centers located within the European Economic Area (EEA), and are handled only by personnel in charge of processing. Personal data is processed using automatic and non-automatic tools for the time required in order to achieve the purposes for which they were collected.
5 – Data retention period
The information collected is processed for the time required for the purposes for which it was collected, and in any event no later than the time prescribed by law.
The information required for tax purposes is kept until the assessments relating to the corresponding tax period are established, i.e. for at least 10 years or more if the annuity related thereto is not yet prescribed for tax purposes.
At the expiration date, the information will be deleted or made anonymous, unless there are additional purposes for the storage of the same (for example warranty delivery obligations, tax obligations).
6 - Transfer of collected data to third parties and non-EU countries
The personal data of users/customers is an essential component of our work and the assignment to third parties is not part of our activities. However, this site, in the performance of its activities and in the performance of the services requested by users, may have to transfer some data to third parties who perform specific tasks which are instrumental and linked to those of the site, including: order fulfillments (eg. purchase of domains) , mail delivery, data analysis, marketing assistance, credit card payments, etc. Suppliers have access to the data required for the performance of their specific task and are held to process the same in accordance with this Policy.
In the event of transfer of the company or of the production units, the personal information of Clients is part of the transferred company assets but remain subject to the commitments undertaken with this Policy, except for requests for new consent.
In the event that data is transferred to companies located outside the European Union (for example Google, Facebook and Microsoft - for LinkedIn and Skype), we make sure that said data is transferred in compliance with applicable regulations and, more specifically, with the regulations provided for by the General Regulations for the protection of personal data. The transfer is authorized by specific decisions of the European Union and the Data Protection Authorityhttp://www.garanteprivacy.it/home/provvedimenti-normativa/normativa/normativa-comunitaria-e-intenazionale/trasferimento-dei-dati-verso-paesi-terzi, more specifically ruling no. 1250/2016 (Privacy Shieldhttp://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/IT/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32016D1250– please see the information page of the Italian Data Protection Authorityhttp://www.garanteprivacy.it/web/guest/home/docweb/-/docweb-display/docweb/5306161), therefore no further consent is required.
