This information notice describes the methods of processing personal data of users who visit the site malatestanovello.it and is provided pursuant to Articles 13 and 14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) and Legislative Decree 196/2003 as amended by Legislative Decree 101/2018.

1. Data Controller

The computer systems and software procedures used to operate the site acquire, during their normal operation, some data whose transmission is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols: IP addresses, browser type and operating system, date and time of the request, pages visited, server response outcome. These data are used to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the site and to ensure its proper functioning and security; they are stored in system logs for the strictly necessary time and may be used to ascertain responsibility in case of computer crimes against the site.

5. Processing Methods and Security Measures
Processing is carried out using IT and telematic tools and, where necessary, on paper, with logic strictly related to the purposes indicated and in a way that ensures the security and confidentiality of the data. The site is fully served in HTTPS with a valid certificate; account passwords are stored in an irreversible encrypted form; access to management tools is nominative and tracked; proof of collected consents is recorded in an append-only archive, protected by a hash chain and automatic integrity checks.
6. Data Recipients
The personal data provided are not disseminated nor transferred to third parties for marketing purposes. They are communicated to recipient entities in their capacity as data processors (art. 28 GDPR) and/or as individuals acting under the authority of the Controller and the Processor (art. 29 GDPR), solely for the purposes indicated above.
In particular, data are communicated to:
employees and collaborators of the Controller, expressly authorized and instructed in processing;
entities providing IT system and communication network management services, including email and website;
entities providing electronic payment services, for online paid bookings only;
professionals and companies providing assistance and consultancy services, including accounting, tax, and legal matters;
Competent Authorities, for compliance with legal obligations.
The updated list of external Data Processors is available at the Controller and can be requested at any time at the contacts indicated in point 1.
7. External Resources Loaded by the Site
For technical reasons, some site resources (fonts, display libraries, maps) are loaded from third-party providers. These services do not install profiling cookies but, by merely serving a file, may receive the visitor's IP address.

The site does not use Google Fonts, Google Maps, Facebook's "Like" button, or other social widgets.
8. Site Virtual Assistant (Clara)
The site provides a virtual assistant, called Clara, which answers questions about the facility's services using only the content published on the site itself. Clara is not a person and does not provide diagnoses, clinical opinions, or prescriptions.
When you write a message in the chat, only the text you typed – along with excerpts from the site's pages relevant to the question – is sent to the provider OpenAI Ireland Ltd., which processes the response on behalf of the Controller as the data processor. Your name, email, IP address, or any data derived from your browsing are not transmitted.
We invite you not to write personal data, health data, or information related to other people in the chat. They are not needed to get a response, and the chat is not the appropriate channel to receive them: for those requests, use the contact form, phone, or the facility's counters.
Messages are not used to train artificial intelligence models and are not stored by the Controller in a form associated with an identifiable user; the provider retains them for the technical time necessary to provide the service and for its own anti-abuse checks, according to its policy. Legal basis: art. 6.1 letter f) GDPR, legitimate interest of the Controller to provide informational assistance to visitors. The use of the chat is always optional: the same information is available by browsing the site, by phone, or via email.
9. Data Transfer Outside the European Union
Data is generally processed within the European Union. If a provider involves a transfer to third countries, this occurs exclusively in the presence of an adequacy decision by the European Commission or based on the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted pursuant to art. 46 GDPR, accompanied by the necessary supplementary measures. The user can obtain a copy of the adopted safeguards by writing to the Controller.

12. Processi Decisionali Automatizzati
The Controller does not adopt automated decision-making processes, including profiling, that produce legal effects on the user or similarly significantly affect their person. The virtual assistant described in point 8 only provides information already published on the site and does not make any decisions regarding the user.
