The user’s e-mail, telephone number or any other contact information will NOT be used to send the user third-party advertising or direct sale or interactive marketing communications materials unless the user has explicitly authorised said sending of promotional material. Please bear in mind that since Acropoli may contact the user by either traditional means (i.e. mail and/or telephone calls) or the means provided for by art. 130 paragraphs 1 and 2 of the Privacy Code (e.g. voice broadcasting, e-mail, fax, MMS messages, SMS messages and so on) and the right to refuse and in general the rights described in art. 7 of Legislative Decree no. 196/2003 may also be exercised separately for one or more of the contact modes used.
Subsequent operations will be carried out by Acropoli in full compliance with the laws and regulations in force and in compliance with Acropoli’s internal data management procedures which are always fully aligned with and compliant to the laws in force. Acropoli shall therefore refrain from exercising any commercial/advertising activity unless explicitly authorised by the users as specified above.

Acropoli SRL uses Your personal data and information for the following purposes:
– answer questions, clarify doubts and so on;
– provide information related to subscription/membership to mailing lists, newsletters and so on, and, more generally, provide commercial information (user consent required);
– draft reports and fully anonymous statistics.
Your data will not be “disclosed”, meaning it will not be delivered or made available to an unknown natural or legal person by any means, including making said data viewable or in any case accessible for consultation.
Acropoli will not provide, neither for free nor for a consideration the personal data of users of its website to third parties, except for the cases where this is authorised by the laws in force and only if the concerned party (the owner of said data) consents to it as detailed below.
To be precise, some or all the personal data collected may be shared with sponsors and/or commercial partners of Acropoli, for example catering companies, travel and communications agencies, event organizers, technical/audio and visual/transport services providers, exhibition planning companies and so on, for the following purposes:

•  for reasons strictly connected with Acropoli’s operations as well as to guarantee provision of the required service;
•  for sending commercial communications, promotion and advertising (by ordinary mail, telephone, voice broadcasting services, fax, e-mail, sms, mms), related to the services and/or products provided by the companies described above for the purpose of proposing Acropoli users potentially useful and/or profitable offers.

Acropoli will require Your specific consent for the communication of Your personal data to the above described categories of companies/service providers and specifically for each one of the above purposes.
Acropoli also manages the information gained through its website in partnership with service providers and web agencies, from which it may receive personal information about users. These on-line partnerships are regulated by contracts that require an adequate level of protection of the personal data processed.

Personal data protection
In compliance with the principle set forth in art. 3 of Legislative Decree no. 196/2003, Acropoli guarantees that data processing via electronic instruments shall be carried out by reducing to the bare minimum the use of personal data and identification data, restricting their use to cases where it is strictly necessary to achieve the purposes for which they were collected.
Acropoli also ensures the adoption of and compliance with specific security measures to prevent loss of data, possible illegal or improper use of data and unauthorized access. User data will be stored (even with the help of outsourced third-party staff) by Acropoli until the data owner requests data to be deleted.
Acropoli shall take all technical and organizational measures, taking into account also the technical expertise and knowledge acquired alongside with the technological advancements suitable to guarantee integrity and safety of information and personal data collected on the site and processed by Acropoli. However, it is impossible to guarantee full protection of any data transmitted over the Internet; therefore, even if Acropoli makes every effort to protect personal data of users, we cannot ensure or guarantee that the information You send to us or that come from our on-line service will be completely safe; data transmission, therefore, is at the user’s own risk, without prejudice to the fact that up-to-date and fully functional data protection policies are developed and used.

The Acropoli SRL policy on protection of minors
The safety of minors is, of course, of utmost importance to Acropoli. The consent to processing of personal data of minors aged under 18 should, in any case, be formally given by their parents or the person exercising parental authority. Children should always ask their parents’ permission before sending their data to Acropoli or to any other site or person online; our Site does not allow minors to register. In any case, should the parent or guardian of a child under the age of 18 believe that the child has provided us with personal information, he/she should contact us to have said data deleted from our files. If Acropoli finds out that it is holding personal data of a child under the age of 18 it will immediately delete said data from the existing files. Although Acropoli is seriously committed to carry out all necessary checks and inspections, we shall be held harmless from any liability and/or claim resulting from any false data provided by users. In summary, please note that all children under 18 must receive proper authorization from their parents or guardians prior to use or disclose their personal data on any website of any type.
Caution!!! Please remember that by entering personal information online (for example on message boards, in instant messaging application or in e-mails) You are basically making that information available for collection and use by others; once a person puts any information or image (personal and/or of another person) online, said information or content becomes accessible to the public and the person concerned may, as a result of that, receive unsolicited messages from third parties.
