TYPES OF DATA PROCESSED AND PURPOSES OF PROCESSING

Navigation data

The computer 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 interested parties, but by its very nature could, through processing and association with data held by third parties, allow users to be identified. This category of data includes the IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users who connect to the site, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation addresses of the resources requested, 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 status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user’s operating system and computer environment. These data are used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on the use of the site and to check its correct operation and are deleted immediately after processing. The data could be used to ascertain responsibility in case of hypothetical computer crimes against the site.

Data reported by the user

The optional, explicit and voluntary sending of messages to the BUPd’s contact addresses, private messages sent by users to institutional profiles/pages on social media (where this possibility is provided), as well as the completion and submission of forms (forms) on the pages of the BUPd’s website, entail the acquisition of the sender’s contact data, necessary to respond, as well as all personal data included in the communications. Any refusal to provide personal data implies the impossibility to use the services themselves; the above personal data are not used to perform user profiling.

Cookies

No personal data of users is acquired by the site in this regard. No use is made of cookies for the transmission of information of a personal nature, nor are so-called persistent cookies of any kind, i.e. systems for tracking users, used. The use of c.d. session cookies (which are not stored persistently on the user’s computer and disappear when the browser is closed) is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers (consisting of random numbers generated by the server) necessary to enable the safe and efficient exploration of the site. The so-called session cookies used in this site avoid the use of other computer techniques potentially prejudicial to the privacy of users’ browsing and do not allow the acquisition of personal identification data of the user. The use of permanent cookies is strictly limited to the acquisition of statistical data related to access to the site. The portal uses a market product for tracking access to its site. It resorts to the use of permanent cookies in order to collect statistical information about “unique visitors” (different people) to the site. These cookies, referred to as “Unique Visitor Cookies,” contain an alphanumeric code that identifies browsing computers, but without any collection of personal data. There is also a portion of code on each page of the site, aimed at collecting statistical data on site usage, again without any collection of personal data. Disabling cookies on your location will not affect your interaction with the site in any way.
