2. TYPES OF DATA PROCESSED

The following Data is processed:

Browsing data: such as the IP addresses or domain names of the computers used by users connecting to the Website and the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation addresses of the resources requested, the transmission of which is implicit in the use of internet communication protocols. This information is not collected for association with identified data subjects, but its nature may, through processing and association with data held by third parties, enable the users to be identified. This data is used purely to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the website and to control that it is functioning correctly; it is deleted immediately after processing. Data may be used to assess liability in the event of hypothetical computer crime to the detriment of the website: to this end, web contact data may be kept in compliance with and limited to this purpose. Starting with the IP address and the domain name of the computers used, limited to the purpose of assessing liability, it may be possible to trace other data identifying the user (in particular, name, surname, e-mail address, etc.);

Data supplied voluntarily by the user: such as identifying data, like name, surname, place and date of birth, e-mail address, telephone number, tax code, address of residence or domicile, etc.; any other data supplied, e.g. when registering with the Website in the specific section and filling in any data collection forms as may be available form the Website, or when buying Mutti brand products or subscribing to specific services, such as the Newsletter Service. For the “Work with us” section of the website, Mutti asks users to refer to the specific disclosures on the processing of such data;

– Data collected by means of cookies: for information on the cookies present on the Mutti Website and other tracking tools, please refer to the Cookie Policy. Interactions with the websites visited by Data Subjects through the use of Facebook Business Tools means that browsing data is also processed by Facebook, which acts as autonomous controller, just like Mutti.

3. MINORS

The Data Controller’s website and services are not intended to be used by individuals under the age of 16. The Data Controller does not intentionally collect personal data relating to minors. In the event that personal data relating to minors is involuntarily collected, the Data Controller will promptly erase this at the request of a user. The protection of the security and confidentiality of minors is very important for us. When registering with the Website, in the specific section, and when filling in any data collection forms present on such Website or when requesting the supply/subscribing to the Newsletter service, the data subject confirms and declares that they are aged over 16 years old or in any case that they are no younger than the age indicated by legislation of the country of residence, where other age limits apply.

When you visit a page of our website and interact with the plug-in (e.g. by clicking on the “Share” button or the Facebook icon to redirect to the Facebook page from the Mutti website) or you decide to leave a comment, the relevant information is sent by the browser directly to the social network platform (in this case Facebook) and saved by it.

Any refusal to give such consent will have no effect, except that it will not be possible to inform the Data Subjects about initiatives run by the Company that may be of their interest. Instead, as regards the purpose pursuant to letter B.2), conferral of personal data is optional and its use is subject to a voluntary interaction with the social plug-in by the Data Subject. Failure to interact shall have no consequences and the Data Subject may continue to browse the Website even without interacting directly with the social network platform.
