Types of processed data

The types of data and information collected by Grimaldi Alliance are the following:

  • navigation data (automatically collected);
  • data voluntarily provided by the User;
  • data collected through the use of cookies.

Navigation data

IT systems and software procedures used to operate the Site acquire, during their normal course of operation, some Personal Data whose transmission is implicit in the communication protocols of the Internet. 

Such information is not collected in order to be associated to identified subjects concerned, but because of its nature it could, by means of processing and association with Personal Data held by third parties, allow for the identification of Users. 

This category includes IP addresses and domain names of computers used by Users who connect to the Internet site, and other parameters related to the operating system and the IT environment of the User.

Such Personal Data are used for the sole purpose of collecting anonymous statistical information on the use of the Site and to check its correct functioning and are kept only as long as is strictly necessary for the statistical analysis. 

The Personal Data could be used in order to ascertain responsibility in case of hypothetical computer-related crimes to the detriment of the Site. 

Data voluntarily provided by the User

Grimaldi Alliance gathers Personal Data voluntarily provided by the Users via the “contacts” page when: 

  1. the Users send e-mails containing information requests regarding the law firm (to info@grimaldialliance.commarketing@grimaldialliance.comrecruiting@gimaldialliance.com);

Furthermore, Grimaldi Alliance collects Personal Data voluntarily provided by Users who fill out the form in order to receive newsletters. 

Use of cookie

The Site only uses technical navigation cookies, which are necessary to allow the Site to function properly, in accordance with the adopted Cookie Policy.

No Personal Data of Data Subjects is acquired by the Site through profiling cookies or other tracking tools.

Purpose of the data treatment

Notwithstanding the information provided vis-à-vis navigation data, Users are free to provide their Personal Data. However, the lack thereof does not allow Grimaldi Alliance to send newsletters or to take into consideration the information requests and job offers. 

Data retention period and processing methods

Personal Data are processed through automated systems for a period of time that is strictly necessary to attain the purposes for which they have been collected. Personal Data processed to fulfil Users’ requests will be retained for as long as needed to provide the requested services and, where applicable, for the additional periods established by specific legal provisions, in accordance with current legal and tax obligations.

Should the User delete his/her account, thereby ceasing to use the newsletter services, the User’s Personal Data will be deleted, except in case of contractual, administrative, fiscal, accounting or legal obligations subsequent to the suspension of the service. As soon as said obligations will be fulfilled, User’s Personal Data will be in any case deleted. 

Specific safety measures are adopted in order to prevent loss of Personal Data, unlawful use, misuse and non-authorized access. The technical security measures implemented by Grimaldi Alliance include antivirus and anti-ransomware systems, firewalls and access passwords, in addition to physical security measures designed to prevent access to the premises in which data is kept.

  • to request and obtain from the Data Controller - where the legal basis for the processing is a contract or consent, and the processing is carried out by automated means - the personal data provided in a structured, machine-readable format, also for the purpose of communicating such data to another data controller (so-called right to data portability);
  • to oppose at any time the processing of personal data provided in the event of special situations concerning the user;
