Dear visitor,

Argento e-Mobility processes the personal data of its visitors and customers in compliance with the relevant national and European legislation, in particular Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (hereinafter "GDPR").

The information on this page, provided pursuant to Article 13 of the GDPR, relates exclusively to the site argentoemobility.com and not to other third party sites or online services that can be reached by visitors through hypertext links that may be published on this website.

Distribution S.r.l., VAT no. 04177060375, with registered office in Via Bargellino 10 c/d 40012 - Calderara di Reno Bologna (ITALY), who can be contacted for matters relating to the processing of personal data (privacy) at the e-mail address privacy@platum.com.

2. Purposes and legal bases of the processing

The data collected are processed, depending on the visitor's activity, for the following purposes and pursuant to the legal bases indicated herein

to handle requests for information forwarded by visitors by means of the contact form in the "Contacts" section of the site (Art. 6, par. 1, lett. b of the GDPR - execution of pre-contractual measures taken at the request of the data subject)

manage orders for goods purchased by the visitor, including shipping and email updates on the status of orders (art. 6, par. 1, lett. b of the GDPR - execution of a contract to which the data subject is a party)

allow the user to create his or her own personal account on the site to view information on orders placed (Art. 6(1)(b) of the GDPR - performance of a contract to which the data subject is party);

only with the express consent of the user, forward commercial communications and promotions by email from the Data Controller (Art. 6(1)(a) of the GDPR - consent of the data subject)

3. Data retention periods

For the purposes referred to in letter A., the data will be deleted within 24 months of its processing.

For the purposes referred to in letters B. and C., data relating to orders and invoices will be kept for a maximum period of 10 years from the date of issue of the invoice.

For the purposes under D., user data are deleted three years after the creation of the account or at any time at the request of the person concerned. In any event, the deletion of the account does not entail the deletion of the data processed by the Controller for the other purposes indicated.

For the purpose referred to in letter E., the Data Controller processes the user's e-mail until the user unsubscribes / revokes consent; in this case, it may take a few days for the deletion of the e-mail address from the database to be definitive and for the user to no longer receive communications of a promotional nature.

For the purpose of letter F., the data is kept for a maximum period of 2 years from the receipt of the application.

4. Nature of provision of data

The forms present on the site (for contact, registration or to place an order), provide for certain fields whose outline is highlighted in red if an attempt is made to send them without the user having previously filled them in: the provision of personal data with reference to these fields is necessary, while it is optional for the other fields. Failure to provide the necessary data will make it impossible for the user, as the case may be, to send his request or application by form, to complete his registration on the site or to proceed with the purchase of the desired products.

5. Third parties processing the data

The Data Controller employs its own "Data Processors", i.e. external parties (companies or professionals) who process data on behalf of the Data Controller, pursuant to Article 28 of the GDPR.

The Data Processors may process the personal data they become aware of exclusively for the purpose of carrying out the tasks assigned to them by the Data Controller. These subjects are:

Companies in charge of maintaining the technological part of the site; 

IT service companies for the management of email communications.

6. Browsing data and cookies

The computer systems and software procedures used for the ordinary operation of this site acquire some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This category of data includes the IP addresses or domain names of the computers and terminals used by users, the URI/URL (Uniform Resource Identifier/Locator) notation addresses of the resources requested, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user's operating system and computer environment.

7. Rights of data subjects

The GDPR recognises all Data Subjects various rights, which they may exercise by contacting the Data Controller by means of the form present on the site in the "contact" section, or at the email address indicated in point 1) of this policy (in this case, it is suggested to indicate in the subject line of the email: "EXERCISE PRIVACY RIGHTS").

Among the rights that may be exercised, provided that the prerequisites set forth in the legislation (in particular, Articles 15 et seq. of the GDPR) are met, are:

- the right to know whether the Controller is processing personal data concerning the applicant;

- the right for the applicant to have access to his/her own data being processed and to all information relating thereto

- the right to have inaccurate personal data concerning the applicant corrected and/or incomplete personal data supplemented

- the right to erasure of the applicant's personal data;

- the right to restriction of the processing of the applicant's personal data;

- the right to object to the processing of the applicant's personal data;

- the right to portability of the applicant's personal data;

- the right to revoke at any time any consent previously given, with the caveat that the revocation is not retroactive and that, therefore, it does not affect the lawfulness of the processing previously carried out on the basis of the consent.

In any case, each data subject also has the right to lodge a formal complaint with the Personal Data Protection Authority, in accordance with the procedures available on the institutional website of that Authority: https://www.garanteprivacy.it.
