2. Which personal information is subject to processing
After you browse the Website, Ferretti S.p.A. will process information about you that may consist - also depending on how you decide to use the Services - of an identifier such as your name, an identity number, an online identifier or one or more elements that refer to your physical, physiological, psychological, financial, cultural or social identity so as to identify you or make you identifiable (simply called “Personal Information” in this document).
Your personal information may be collected because you provided it voluntarily (if you sign up for our Newsletter, for example) or by simply analysing your actions on the Website.
The following personal information is processed via the Website:
2.1 Name, contact details and other Personal Information
In various sections of the Website, you will be asked to enter information such as your name, email address, your country of residence, and home address, etc.
Furthermore, every time you take part in a survey or a promotion through the Website, or when you contact Ferretti S.p.A. or its Customer Care team via the contact details on the Website, Ferretti S.p.A. may collect any additional information you decide to provide.
2.2 Job Applications
If you sign up to the Job Applications section of the Website to work at Ferretti S.p.A., at the web address
https://www.ferrettigroup.com/en-us/Careers (“Careers”), you will be asked to provide some details about your work or professional life (such as your CV, etc.). The personal information you provide for this purpose will be processed by Ferretti S.p.A. as described in the specific statement found there.
2.3 Special categories of personal information
Some sections of the Website include open fields where you can send information to Ferretti S.p.A. that may contain personal information.
Since these fields are open, you can use them to share (on a voluntary basis, or otherwise) certain sensitive categories of personal information, such as information revealing your race or ethnic group, political opinions, religion or philosophical beliefs, trade union membership, genetic information, or biometric data, that may unequivocally identify an individual, data relating to your health or sex life, or the sexual orientation of a person.
Ferretti S.p.A. suggests you do not send such personal information unless it is strictly necessary. Since entering such information is entirely optional, please remember that these special categories of personal information will only be processed with your explicit authorisation and in respect of current legislation pro tempore. Ferretti S.p.A. therefore stresses the importance of expressing your explicit authorisation for the processing of special categories of personal information, should you decide to share such information.
2.4 Providing third party data
As mentioned above, there are parts of the Website where you can enter text messages that are visible to Ferretti S.p.A., which may contain (voluntarily or otherwise) personal information referring to another person.
As regards this possibility, you become an independent data processing controller and as such accept all obligations and legal liability. In this way, you confer complete indemnity relating to any disputes, demand, request for compensation for damages resulting from the processing of data etc. that was shared with Ferretti S.p.A. by the third party whose personal information was processed as a result of you using the functions of the Website in breach of applicable regulations for the protection of personal information.
Should you share or process the personal information of a third party in any other way when using the Website, you guarantee herewith - and accept all associated liability - that such potential data processing has the authorisation of the third party in question or has another legal basis that allows the processing of the information in question.
2.5 Browsing data
During the course of their operation, the IT systems and software procedures used for the proper functioning of this Website acquire certain personal information, whose transmission is required for using Internet communication protocols. This information is not collected by Ferretti S.p.A. in order to be associated with identified persons. However, given its very nature, users can potentially be identified should it be processed and associated with other data held by third parties.
IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by the users connected to the Website, addresses of requested resources in URI notation (Uniform Resource Identifier), the time of the request, the method used for submitting the request to the server, the dimension of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the reply given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the operating system and to the user’s IT environment, fall under this category of data.
This data is used exclusively to obtain anonymous statistics with regard to the use of the Website and to check it is operating correctly, in order to identify any anomalies and/or abuse. Except for cases where information is used to ascertain responsibility in case of potential computer crimes against the Website or third parties, such information is not retained for more than seven days.
