What data we process and why

Browsing the site

When you visit the site, the server that hosts it automatically records some technical data: IP address, date and time of the request, the page requested, browser type and operating system. We need this to run the site, protect it from abuse and fix technical problems.

  • Legal basis: our legitimate interest in keeping the site secure and working properly (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Retention: for as long as technically necessary, unless needed to establish liability in the event of computer crime.

Contact form

If you write to us using the form on the Contact page, we process your name, email address, subject and message only to reply to you and handle your request (for example a visit or a tasting). All fields are required: without them we cannot reply.

  • Legal basis: steps taken at your request before entering into a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR).
  • Retention: for as long as needed to handle your request and the correspondence that follows.

Spam protection (Akismet)

Messages sent through the form are checked by Akismet, an anti-spam service of Automattic Inc. (USA). For the check, Akismet receives the content of the message, your IP address and technical browser data.

  • Legal basis: our legitimate interest in protecting the site from spam (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Transfer outside the EU: Automattic participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Automattic privacy policy.

Statistics (Google Analytics 4) — only with your consent

If you consent to statistics, we use Google Analytics 4, a service of Google Ireland Limited, to learn how many people visit the site, from which countries, on which devices and which pages they read. Google Analytics uses cookies and device identifiers. Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses. We have turned off Google Signals and ad personalisation.

  • Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time.
  • Retention: for the period set in Google Analytics, at most 14 months.
  • Transfer outside the EU: data may also be processed by Google LLC in the United States, which participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Information from Google.

Map (Google Maps) — only with your consent

The Contact page can show an interactive map provided by Google Ireland Limited. The map loads only if you consent to external content or press "Show the map". When it loads, Google receives your IP address and may use its own cookies.

  • Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR).
  • Transfer outside the EU: possible to Google LLC (USA), which participates in the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework. Google privacy policy.

Typefaces (Google Fonts)

Some of the site's typefaces are loaded from Google Fonts servers (Google Ireland Limited). To deliver them, Google receives your device's IP address. Google Fonts does not use cookies.

  • Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a consistent presentation of the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Weather

The weather shown on the site is requested by our server from MET Norway (the Norwegian Meteorological Institute). No visitor data is sent to MET Norway.

Cookies

Cookies are small files the site stores in your browser. We use technical cookies, which the site needs to work and which do not require consent. Only with your consent do we also use statistics and third-party cookies. On your first visit a banner asks you to choose: you can accept all, reject all (also by closing the banner with the ×) or choose by category. We will not ask again for 6 months unless the services we use change.

Who receives the data

The data is processed by us and, on our behalf, by the site's hosting provider and by the services listed above (Google, Automattic), each for its own function. We do not sell your data or pass it to third parties for marketing. Data may be disclosed to authorities where the law requires it.

Your rights

At any time you can ask the controller to:

  • access your data and receive a copy;
  • correct or update it;
  • erase it;
  • restrict its processing;
  • receive it in a machine-readable format (portability);
  • object to processing based on legitimate interest;
  • withdraw your consent, without affecting processing carried out before you withdrew it.

To do so, write to tercic@tercic.com. We will reply within one month. If you believe the processing breaks the law, you can lodge a complaint with the Italian data protection authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (www.garanteprivacy.it), or with the authority in your own EU country.

Changes

We may update this policy, for example if we add new services to the site. The version in force is always the one published on this page. If changes affect processing based on consent, we will ask for your consent again.
