This Privacy Policy aims to describe the management methods of the website https://www.simonbart.com/ (hereinafter, the “Website”) regarding the processing of personal data of individuals who access, use, or interact with it (hereinafter, the “Users”).
This is a general notice provided in compliance with Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and the free movement of such data (hereinafter, the “Regulation” or “GDPR”) to all Users who consult and/or interact with services provided through the Website by Simon Bart Gallery, headquartered at Via Roma 50 - 84121, Salerno, VAT No. 05482680658 (hereinafter, the “Data Controller”).
This notice will explain the purposes and methods by which the Data Controller collects and processes Users’ personal data, which categories of data are processed, what rights data subjects have under the Regulation, and how these rights can be exercised.
This privacy policy applies exclusively to the Website; therefore, the Data Controller assumes no responsibility for third-party websites that may be accessed via hyperlinks on the Website. Additionally, this notice applies to data acquired from pages managed by the Data Controller on social media platforms, such as, for example but not limited to, Facebook and Instagram.
The processing of Users’ personal data will be carried out using appropriate paper, electronic, and/or telematic tools, with logic strictly related to the purposes outlined above and, in any case, in such a way as to ensure the security and confidentiality of the data.
By using the Website, Users are invited to review this notice before providing any personal information of any kind.
CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA
A) BROWSING DATA
The IT systems and software procedures used to operate this Website acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols.
This information is not collected to be associated with identified individuals; however, by its very nature, it could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow for the identification of users.
This category of data includes IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by Users connecting to the Website, URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) addresses of the requested resources, 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 server’s response status (successful, error, etc.), and other parameters related to the User’s operating system and IT environment.
These data are used solely to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the Website and to ensure its correct functioning, and they are deleted immediately after processing. The data could be used to determine liability in the event of potential IT crimes against the Website.
B) DATA VOLUNTARILY PROVIDED BY THE USER
Apart from the browsing data mentioned above, the Data Controller will collect personal data voluntarily provided by the User through the Website to access certain services, create a personal account, or make a purchase.
By way of example, the Website will only acquire common personal data provided directly by the User (such as name, surname, email address, shipping address, phone number), as well as any other information the User may voluntarily provide via the contact tools available on the Website.
PURPOSES, LEGAL BASIS FOR PROCESSING, AND NATURE OF DATA PROVISION
The data referred to in the previous section will be processed by the Data Controller to:

- Enable operators to provide personalized assistance and respond to User requests submitted via the Website’s online chat;
- Send the Data Controller’s periodic newsletter containing commercial communications about its own products or services similar to those offered on the Website, if requested by the User.
The processing is therefore necessary to fulfill a User’s request within the context of the legal relationship established with the Data Controller. The provision of such data is therefore necessary to fulfill the User’s requests.
Additionally, data provided as part of assistance requested via chat may also be used to monitor and improve the quality of the service provided to the User, based on the Data Controller’s legitimate interest.
At any time, the User may request the deletion of their personal account or unsubscribe from the newsletter service by sending an email to info@simonbart.com, clicking the “Unsubscribe” button found in the newsletter, or following the instructions to delete their account in the reserved area of the Website.

DATA RETENTION PERIOD AND DURATION OF PROCESSING

Data collected will be retained until the request is fulfilled. Subsequently, the data may be retained for no longer than 12 months.
For the newsletter service, the Data Controller will retain data until the User requests to no longer receive such communications by sending an email to info@simonbart.com or clicking the “Unsubscribe” button in the newsletter.
