B.    CONTACT DETAILS OF THE PERSONAL DATA PROTECTION MANAGER

In order to facilitate relationships between you, the data subject, that is the “identified or identifiable natural person” to which the personal data refer pursuant to article 4, point 1) of the Regulation (the “Data Subject”) and the Co-controllers, the Regulation sets forth, in some specific cases, the appointment of a Data  Protection Officer who, among the various tasks assigned, acts also as a focal point for the data subject.

in accordance with article 37 of the Regulation, the Co-controllers have jointly decided to appoint as Data Protection Officer SAPG Legal Tech S.r.l. (the “DPO”).

In accordance with article 39 of the Regulation, the DPO is called on to carry out, inter alia, the following tasks:

  • inform and advise the controller or the processor and the employees who carry out processing of their obligations pursuant to this Regulation and to other Union or Member State data protection provisions;
  • monitor and oversee compliance with the Regulation, with applicable regulations concerning the protection of personal data and the policies and procedures adopted by the Co-controllers;
  • provide support to the Data Subject’s requests;
  • cooperate with the supervisory authority.

C.    PURPOSE AND LEGAL BASIS OF THE PROCESSING

To enable navigation in the website and your registration (the “Website” - in the section where you can register and/or send  requests for information using the contact form and/or subscription to the newsletter service - the co-controllers collect some personal and navigation data (using cookies), in accordance with the policies in the systems that manage preferences that are displayed on first access to the websites.   You can modify your cookie preferences at any time by clicking here.

The processing of your personal data will take place by each controller to allow you to contact ICS Milano, send requests for information, apply for jobs, download free resources and use all the services provided by the website.  

To allow the Controllers to carry out the processing activities for the above-stated purposes, the fields  marked with an asterisk  [*] are compulsory.

The processing will be legitimate under article 6.1 sub-paragraph b) of the Regulation.

Non-provision of even just one of the data marked with an asterisk will make it impossible for us to process your personal data and, consequently, it will not be possible to fulfil your requests and/or use the services (provided by the website) for which the provision of personal data is required.

The personal data requested for the fulfilment of the above-stated purposes will be those indicated in the registration and/or contact form; that is, by way of non-limiting example only: given name, surname, email address, mobile phone numbers. Personal data of potential students such as, by way of non-limiting example, given name, surname, age, nationality, class at school and any schools attended previously may also be requested.

In all these cases, you will be able to consult the privacy policy in the Privacy Policy section of the website.

In the “Working with us” section of the website, if you decide to apply for a job, we will process the data and information in your CV. In this case, the legal basis of the processing will be the performance of pre-contractual activities as of article 6, sub-paragraph b) of the GDPR.

Besides the above-stated purposes, your personal data may be processed in order to provide you with a better service and to promote products and services offered and/or marketed by ICS Milano that may be of interest to you.
As regards direct marketing purposes, it should be noted that, under article 6.1, sub-paragraph f) of the Regulation and article 130, sub-paragraph 4 of the Privacy Code (so-called soft spam exception), the co-controllers may carry out this activity based on their legitimate interests,  regardless of your express consent and in any case until you object or request restriction (in accordance with the provisions of Section F, sub-paragraphs d) and f) of the Privacy Policy) of the processing, as described in more detail in Recital 47 of the Regulation which states that “the processing of personal data for direct marketing purposes may be regarded as carried out for a legitimate interest”.

This will be possible following assessments made by the controller concerning any possible prevalence of your fundamental interests, rights and freedoms that require protection of the personal data over the controller's legitimate interest to send direct marketing communications.

Moreover, you can legitimately object to receiving promotional communications at any moment, without this negatively affecting processing for the other purposes in any way.

D.    SUBJECTS TO WHOM YOUR PERSONAL DATA MAY BE COMMUNICATED

Your personal data may be communicated to specific subjects considered recipients of such personal data. 
Indeed, article 4, point 9) of the Regulation defines as recipient of personal data “a natural or legal person, public authority, agency or another body, to which the personal data are disclosed, whether a third party or not” (the “Recipients”).

In this light, in order to correctly carry out all the processing activities required to pursue the purposes as outlined in this Privacy Policy, the following recipients may process your personal data:

  • Third parties that perform processing activities and/or related and relevant activities on behalf of a controller or the co-controllers. These subjects have been appointed as processors, such term meaning, in the singular, in accordance with article 4, point 8) of the Regulation, “natural or legal person, public authority, agency or other body which processes personal data on behalf of the controller” (the “Processor”);
  • Individuals, employees and/or contract staff of a controller or the co-controllers, to whom specific and/or various processing tasks concerning your personal data have been assigned. These subjects have been given specific instructions regarding the security and correct use of personal data and are defined, in accordance with article 4, point 10 of the Regulation, “subjects authorised to process personal data under the direct authority of the controller or processor” (the “Authorised Persons”).

Where  required by law and to prevent or avoid the commission of a crime, your personal data may be communicated to public or legal authorities without same being regarded as recipients. Indeed, in accordance with article 4.9 of the Regulation, “public authorities which may receive personal data in the framework of a particular inquiry in accordance with Union or Member State law shall not be regarded as recipients”.

E.    PROCESSING PERIOD

One of the principles applicable to the processing of personal data concerns the limitation of the storage period, regulated in article 5.1, sub-paragraph e) of the Regulation which states that“personal data shall kept in a form which permits identification of data subjects for no longer than is necessary for the purposes for which the personal data are processed; personal data may be stored for longer periods insofar as the personal data will be processed solely for archiving purposes in the public interest, scientific or historical research purposes or statistical purposes in accordance with Article 89, sub-paragraph 1, subject to implementation of the appropriate technical and organisational measures required by this Regulation in order to safeguard the rights and freedoms of the data subject”.

In light of this principle, your personal data will be processed by the co-controllers solely for the period required to fulfil the purposes as of Section C of this Privacy Policy.

Specifically, your personal data will be processed for a period limited to a strict minimum, as indicated in Recital 39 of the Regulation; that is, until termination of the contract you have entered into with the controller and/or co-controller, without prejudice to a further storage period that may be imposed by law as set forth in Recital 65 of the Regulation.

As regards processing carried out to fulfil other purposes as of this Privacy Policy, the co-controllers may legitimately process your personal data until you communicate your intention to restrict or object to the processing, in one of the ways indicated in this Privacy Policy.

F.    RIGHTS

As established in article 15 of the Regulation, you may access your personal data, request rectification, if incomplete or inaccurate, request erasure if the collection of the data has taken place in breach of a law or the Regulation and object to the processing for specific and legitimate reasons.
