Privacy & Cookie Policy | Sergio Contini

Privacy Policy

This policy describes how personal data is processed when users visit sergiocontini.com.

1. Data controller

The data controller is Sergio Contini. Email: architect@sergiocontini.com.

2. Nature and purpose of the website

sergiocontini.com is a personal and professional portfolio presenting projects and activities in architecture, interior design and visual communication. The website has no restricted areas, user registration, contact forms, newsletters or e-commerce services.

3. Technical browsing data

The website does not use analytics, profiling systems or advertising technologies. During normal browsing, the IT systems and services required to operate and protect the website may automatically process technical data such as the IP address, date and time of the request, requested resource, browser and device type, connection information and data relating to errors or security.

4. Purposes and legal basis

Technical data is processed to display the website correctly, ensure its availability and security, prevent abuse and diagnose technical problems. Processing is based on the controller’s legitimate interest in ensuring the proper operation and security of the website.

5. Email communications

The website does not contain a contact form. If a user voluntarily contacts the controller by email, the sender’s address, name or signature, message content, attachments and other voluntarily supplied information may be processed. This information is used only to respond to the request and, where necessary, to take pre-contractual steps requested by the user.

6. Hosting and recipients

The website is hosted on Cloudflare Pages and distributed through Cloudflare’s infrastructure. Cloudflare may process technical network-request data to deliver the website, improve performance, protect against abuse and secure its infrastructure. Personal data is not sold or used by the controller for advertising purposes.

7. International transfers

The technical infrastructure used to distribute the website may involve data processing through an international network of servers. Any transfers are managed by the relevant providers under the safeguards required by applicable law.

8. Retention

Technical data is retained by infrastructure providers for the period necessary to operate, secure and technically manage their services. Data received by email is retained for the time needed to answer the request, manage any resulting professional relationship and comply with legal obligations.

9. External links

The website may contain links to external platforms such as Instagram and LinkedIn. When users select these links, they leave sergiocontini.com and access services operated by third parties. Processing by those services is governed by their own privacy policies.

10. Data subject rights

Where provided by applicable law, data subjects may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection and data portability. Requests may be sent to architect@sergiocontini.com. A complaint may also be lodged with the competent data protection authority.

11. Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated following changes to the website, the services used or applicable law. The date of the latest update will be shown at the top of the page.

Cookies are small text files that a website may store on a user’s device while they browse.

1. Cookies used by the website

sergiocontini.com does not directly use analytics, advertising, profiling, tracking, social-media or embedded-content cookies. The website does not use Google Analytics or equivalent services and does not embed videos, maps or other third-party content.

2. Technical infrastructure technologies

Where strictly necessary, Cloudflare may use technical technologies or temporary cookies for network security, abuse prevention or proper service operation. The controller does not use these tools to profile users or for advertising purposes.

3. Consent banner

Because the website does not use analytics, advertising or profiling cookies, no consent banner is displayed. If non-essential services are introduced in the future, this policy will be updated and a prior-consent system will be implemented where required.

4. External links

Any cookies installed after following a link to an external website are controlled exclusively by the destination website and are governed by its Cookie Policy.
