Privacy notice
Processing of personal data pursuant to arts. 13-14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 («GDPR»).
Courtesy translation. The Italian version of this notice is the reference text; in case of discrepancies, the Italian version prevails.
1. Data controller
Dott. Geol. Massimo Pasquale Fedele — Via Maestro Luigi Antonioli 221, 25015 Desenzano del Garda (BS), Italy
VAT no. (P. IVA) 02436300616 · E-mail geologofedele@gmail.com · PEC studiogeologofedele@pec.epap.it.
The Controller has not appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO), as there is no legal obligation to do so.
2. Data processed and purposes
- Contact form
- Full name, e-mail, phone, type of request and content of the message, voluntarily provided by the user in order to receive a reply to their request and, where applicable, a quote.
- Browsing data
- The hosting provider may record, for security purposes and aggregate statistics, technical data such as the IP address, the date and time of the request and the browser type (system logs).
3. Legal basis
- Art. 6.1.b GDPR — performance of pre-contractual measures taken at the data subject's request (handling of the request and quote);
- Art. 6.1.a GDPR — consent, for submission of the form;
- Art. 6.1.f GDPR — legitimate interest of the Controller in the security of the site (technical logs).
4. Processing methods and retention
Data are processed with electronic tools, with adequate security measures. Data from the contact form are kept for the time necessary to handle the request and, if an assignment is awarded, for the duration of the professional relationship and for the subsequent statutory periods (tax and limitation periods). Where no assignment is awarded, data are deleted within 24 months. Technical logs are kept by the hosting provider in accordance with its own policies.
5. Recipients and external processors
Data collected through the site may be disclosed or made accessible, within the limits of their respective competences, to:
- Public Administrations and competent bodies, where necessary for carrying out the professional assignment;
- consultants and collaborators of the practice.
Solely for the technical delivery of the site and for forwarding the messages sent through the contact form, the Controller uses IT service providers (hosting and form-submission service) appointed as Processors pursuant to art. 28 GDPR; some of them may process data outside the European Union, on the basis of the safeguards provided for by arts. 44 et seq. GDPR. Data are not disseminated or transferred to third parties for marketing purposes.
6. Cookies and tracking tools
This site does not use profiling cookies or third-party cookies, and does not use analytics tools that track the user. There is therefore no cookie consent banner. The browser may store purely technical cookies that may be necessary for the page to work.
7. Rights of the data subject
The data subject may exercise at any time the rights provided for by arts. 15-22 GDPR: access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, data portability and withdrawal of consent (without prejudice to the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal). Requests should be sent to the Controller's contact details given in point 1.
The data subject may also lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority: the Italian Data Protection Authority (Garante per la protezione dei dati personali) (www.garanteprivacy.it).
8. Provision of data
Providing the data marked as mandatory in the form is necessary to follow up the request; failure to provide them makes it impossible to reply. The other data are optional.
9. Updates
This notice may be updated. The current version is always published at this address. Last updated: 2026.
