Data Controller and Scope
This Privacy Policy explains how personal data may be processed when you visit marcofalappa.com, a personal portfolio website owned and managed by Marco Falappa. The Data Controller is Marco Falappa, based in Italy. For any privacy-related request, you may contact marco.falappa@icloud.com. This policy applies only to this website and does not cover external websites or services linked from its pages.
Information We Process
Purposes and Legal Bases
Technical information is processed to display and operate the website, maintain its security, prevent misuse and identify technical problems. This processing is based on the legitimate interest in providing a secure and functional website. Information provided by email is processed to respond to enquiries, manage professional communications and, where applicable, take steps requested before entering into a professional agreement. Data may also be processed where necessary to comply with legal obligations or establish, exercise or defend legal claims. No automated decision-making or profiling is carried out.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
At present, this website uses only technical cookies or similar technologies that may be necessary for its operation, security and correct display. It does not use advertising, profiling or cross-site tracking cookies. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings, although disabling strictly necessary technologies may affect certain website functions. If analytics, embedded media or other non-essential tracking technologies are introduced in the future, this policy and the relevant consent settings will be updated before they are activated.
Service Providers and External Links
Personal data may be processed by service providers supporting website hosting, domain management, security, email delivery, maintenance or content distribution. These providers process information only as necessary to perform their services and according to their respective contractual and legal obligations. Personal data are not sold or rented. Information may be disclosed to public authorities, professional advisers or other parties only where required by law or necessary to protect legal rights. The website may contain links to third-party websites whose privacy practices are outside my control.
Data Retention and Security
Personal data are retained only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which they were collected. Technical logs are retained according to the website provider’s security and maintenance settings, unless longer retention is necessary to investigate misuse or comply with legal obligations. Email correspondence is retained for the time required to respond to the request and manage any resulting professional relationship, and may be kept longer where necessary for contractual, administrative or legal purposes. Reasonable technical and organisational measures are used to protect personal data, although no online system can guarantee absolute security.
Your Rights, Complaints and Policy Updated
Under the GDPR, you may request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate information, deletion, restriction of processing and, where applicable, data portability. You may also object to processing based on legitimate interests and withdraw consent at any time where consent is the applicable legal basis. Requests may be sent to marco.falappa@icloud.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Italian Data Protection Authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali. This Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect changes to the website, its services or applicable legal requirements. The latest revision date will always appear at the top of this page.
