Privacy Policy

I. The Data Processor

I am Marcello Curto, the individual responsible for processing your personal data. Should you wish to contact me, feel free to do so via my email: contact-from-web@marcellocurto.com. For further contact details, please refer to the Imprint on my website.

Personal data encompasses all information that could personally identify you, ranging from names and contact information (such as phone numbers, physical addresses, and email addresses) to your digital footprint, including your IP address.

The processing of this information is regulated under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), to which I strictly adhere.

II. Data Collection on This Website

1. Access Data and Log Files

For visitors who browse my website without registering or otherwise submitting information, I collect only the data that your browser conveys to my server, which is essential for technical purposes. This includes:

  • Your IP address
  • The website from which you navigated to my site
  • The specific pages accessed (URL)
  • The date and time of your visit
  • Your device's operating system and browser version (User-Agent)

While the collection of this data allows me to become aware of it, it doesn't imply that it is stored indefinitely. Certain information, excluding IP addresses unless necessary, is stored in log files without an explicit reason. IP addresses are stored solely for security measures, such as in the case of an unusually high number of access attempts suggesting a potential misuse or cyber-attack.

The primary purposes for collecting this data include ensuring the seamless operation of the website, facilitating a user-friendly experience, maintaining system security and stability, and other administrative functions.

Cookies

My website does not employ cookies for tracking purposes or storing user data.

3. Website Hosting

A third-party provider within the European Union offers services related to hosting and displaying the website and provides infrastructure services, computing capacity, storage, databases, maintenance, and security services.

4. Communication via Email

Your email address is collected primarily for communication purposes, respecting the principles of necessity and legitimate interest.

III. Data Retention Period

I adhere to the GDPR's guidelines, storing personal data only as long as necessary or as mandated by legal retention periods. Should legal obligations require, data processing may be limited rather than completely halted, ensuring data is only used for its intended purpose.

IV. Purpose and Legal Basis for Data Processing

The processing of your data occurs in compliance with the GDPR and the Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG), with the specific legal basis depending on the context in which your data is obtained.

V. Disclosure of Personal Data

Your IP address is automatically shared with servers when you visit a website, including third-party components embedded on this site.

VI. Your Data Protection Rights

You possess rights under the GDPR related to the access, correction, deletion, and portability of your personal data, among others.

VII. Withdrawal of Consent

You are entitled to withdraw any previously given consent regarding your personal data, affecting only future processing activities.

VIII. Amendments to This Data Protection Declaration

Should there be a change in the legal framework, our online offerings, or our data collection practices, this data protection declaration might be updated, subject to your consent where necessary.

I encourage you to periodically review this declaration, especially if you are sharing personal data with me.
