Privacy Policy

In compliance with the obligations set forth by national regulations (Legislative Decree No. 196 of June 30, 2003, Code regarding the protection of personal data) and European regulations (European Regulation on the protection of personal data No. 679/2016, GDPR), and subsequent amendments, this website respects and protects the privacy of its users, visitors, and users, making every reasonable and proportionate effort to avoid harming users’ rights.

This “privacy policy” applies exclusively to online activities of this site and is valid for visitors/users of the site. It does not apply to information collected through channels other than this website. The purpose of this privacy notice is to provide maximum transparency regarding the information that the site collects and how it is used.

Legal Basis for Processing

This site processes data based on the explicit consent of its users. By using (accessing and browsing within) or consulting this site, visitors and users explicitly approve this privacy notice and consent to the processing of their personal data in relation to the methods and purposes described below, including the potential disclosure to third parties if necessary for the provision of a service (included within the site).

Providing data or giving consent to the collection and processing of data is optional. The user may deny consent and may also withdraw any consent already provided at any time (via email: pazienti@liviogallottini.com). However, denying consent may prevent the provision of certain services, and the browsing experience on the site may be compromised.

Starting from May 25, 2018 (the effective date of the GDPR), this site processes some data based on the legitimate interests of the data controller.

Data Collected and Purposes

Like all websites, this site uses log files in which information is stored automatically during user visits. The information collected may include:

  • IP address
  • Type of browser and device parameters used to connect to the site
  • Internet Service Provider (ISP) name
  • Date and time of visit
  • Referral and exit web page
  • Country of origin
  • Possibly the number of clicks.

The data collection is done for the following purposes:

  • Exclusively aggregated and anonymous form to verify the correct operation of the site. None of this information is linked to an individual user, and it does not allow for identification in any way.
  • For security purposes (anti-spam filters, firewall, virus detection), the automatically registered data may also include personal data such as the IP address, which could be used, in compliance with current laws, to block attempts to damage the site or harm other users or engage in illegal activities.

Such data is never used for identifying or profiling the user, nor cross-referenced with other data, nor provided to third parties, but used only for the protection of the site and its users.

  • To communicate data to third parties who perform necessary or instrumental functions for the operation of the service, such as managing comments on the site.

If the site allows for comment insertion or specific services requested by the user (via the “Contact” section), the site automatically records some identifying data of the user, including email and nickname. This data is voluntarily provided by the user when the service is provided, and it is processed based on consent. By submitting a comment or other information, the user expressly agrees to the privacy policy and specifically consents to the contents being freely viewable by other visitors.

Browsing Data and Behavioral Analytics During browsing on our site, we automatically collect some browsing data, such as the IP address, browser type, operating system, browser language, and other information related to the user’s interaction with our website. These data are used to improve the user experience, optimize content, and monitor the site’s operation.

We also use web analytics tools such as Google Analytics to collect and analyze information about user behavior. These tools help us understand how users interact with the site, which sections are most visited, the duration of visits, and other usage metrics in order to optimize the site and our services.

The data collected through these tools is anonymized and not used to directly identify the user. If you wish not to be tracked by analytics tools such as Google Analytics, you can disable the use of cookies directly in your browser or use the cookie management options provided by our site.

We may also use cookies to gather information about your preferences and personalize your browsing experience. For more details on the cookies used, please refer to our COOKIE POLICY.

Processing of Sensitive Data

If we collect sensitive data, such as health information (e.g., medical conditions, clinical history, or previous dental treatments), it is processed solely for purposes related to evaluating and preparing a treatment plan. This data is necessary to provide appropriate consultation and to formulate a personalized estimate.

For a first dental visit, sensitive data may be collected to determine the most suitable treatment plan for the patient. In any case, the processing of such data is done with the full consent of the interested party, who must provide explicit approval before the data is processed for the therapeutic plan formulation.

We ensure that sensitive data is treated with the utmost confidentiality and security by adopting appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect it from unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration.

The data subject has the right to revoke consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing based on consent before the revocation.

In Case of Request for Estimates

The data received will be used exclusively for the provision of the requested service (estimate or first contact) and only for the time necessary to provide the service. The information that site users decide to make public through the available services and tools is provided by the user knowingly and voluntarily, exempting this site from any responsibility regarding possible violations of laws. It is the user’s responsibility to verify that they have permission to submit personal data of third parties or content protected by national and international laws. If comments are managed via an external service (e.g., Facebook Comment or Disqus), please refer to the service’s policies for further information (see the cookie section).

The data collected by the site during its operation is used solely for the purposes mentioned above and is retained for the time strictly necessary to carry out the specified activities. In any case, personal data collected by the site will never be provided to third parties, for any reason, unless required by a legitimate request from the judicial authority and only in cases provided by law. However, data may be provided to third parties if necessary for the provision of a specific service requested by the user (e.g., managing comments), or for security checks or site optimization.

On the website, data may be collected, especially on pages dedicated to estimates, and will be processed according to the methods indicated in this document for the provision of services and/or responses to requests received. In case the negotiation is concluded positively or negatively, the collected data will be destroyed and will never be disclosed to third parties.

Location of Processing

The data collected by the site is processed at the data controller’s office and at the web hosting data center, which is responsible for processing the data, processing them on behalf of the data controller, located in the European Economic Area and acting in accordance with European standards.

Cookies

As is common on all websites, this site uses cookies, small text files that store information about the visitor’s preferences, improve the site’s functionality, simplify navigation (e.g., login, site language), and for website usage analysis.

Our website uses both first-party and third-party cookies.

For first-party cookies, we exclusively use “technical cookies,” both temporary and permanent.

For a complete and detailed understanding, please read our extended cookie notice.

Disabling Cookies

Cookies are linked to the browser used and CAN BE DISABLED DIRECTLY FROM THE BROWSER, thereby refusing/revoking consent to the use of cookies. Please keep in mind that disabling cookies may prevent the correct functioning of certain site features.

Transfer of Data to Non-EU Countries

This site may share some of the collected data with services located outside the European Union, specifically with Google, Facebook, and Microsoft (LinkedIn) through social plugins and the Google Analytics service. The transfer is authorized based on specific decisions of the European Union and the Personal Data Protection Authority, particularly Decision 1250/2016 (Privacy Shield – here is the information page from the Italian Authority), so no further consent is required. The aforementioned companies ensure their adherence to the Privacy Shield.

Security Measures

This site processes user data lawfully and fairly, adopting appropriate security measures to prevent unauthorized access, disclosure, modification, or destruction of the data. Processing is carried out using computer and/or telecommunication tools, with organizational methods and logics strictly related to the purposes indicated. Specifically, the site management software is constantly updated and regularly scanned to verify the presence of viruses and dangerous codes. In addition to the data controller, in some cases, categories of personnel involved in the site’s organization (administrative, commercial, marketing, legal personnel, system administrators) or external parties (such as third-party technical service providers, postal couriers, hosting providers, IT companies, communication agencies) may have access to the data.

User Rights

Under European Regulation 679/2016 (GDPR) and Article 7 of Legislative Decree No. 196 of June 30, 2003, the user may, under the methods and limits provided by current law, exercise the following rights:

  • Object, in whole or in part, for legitimate reasons, to the processing of personal data concerning them for sending advertising materials or direct sales or for carrying out market research or commercial communication.
  • Request confirmation of the existence of personal data concerning them (right of access).
  • Know its origin.
  • Receive intelligible communication.
  • Have information about the logic, methods, and purposes of processing.
  • Request updates, corrections, integration, cancellation, anonymization, or blocking of data processed unlawfully, including data no longer necessary for the purposes for which they were collected.
  • In the case of processing based on consent, receive their data provided to the data controller in a structured, machine-readable format commonly used by an electronic device.
  • The right to file a complaint with the Supervisory Authority (Privacy Guarantor).
  • More generally, exercise all rights granted by the applicable legal provisions.

If the data is processed based on legitimate interests, the rights of the data subjects are still guaranteed (except for the right to portability, which is not provided by the regulations), especially the right to object to the processing, which can be exercised by sending a request to the data controller.

Requests should be addressed to the Data Controller.
