The data processors designated by this Company and the employees and collaborators authorized to process data will be given adequate instructions, with particular attention to the issue of security measures, in order to be able to guarantee the confidentiality and security of the data. In any case, only the personal data necessary for the performance of their specific functions will be revealed to them. Any data processors appointed contractually undertake to ensure compliance with current legislation for the protection of personal data and to adopt all the security measures necessary for the adequate protection of the same data.
The Data Subject has the right, at any time, to obtain access to his or her data, to request its rectification if inaccurate, or to integrate it if incomplete, to request its cancellation or oblivion (for example, when the personal data are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they were collected; the deletion cannot be carried out where the processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation or is necessary for the verification, the exercise or defence of a right in court), to request the limitation of processing and also the portability (in particular, at the request of the Data Subject, the Company will deliver to the Data Subject the data concerning him/her processed by automated means, in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format.

If technically feasible, and if the Data Subject requests it, the Company will transmit the data directly to another data controller), to object to the processing of the same data, as well as to lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Authority if it considers that the data processing carried out by the Company violates the applicable legislation on the subject.
