3.  Nature of provision and consequences of refusal  

The provision of personal data not subject to consent, for the purposes and in the manner set out in this Policy, is mandatory for the fulfilment of legal and/or contractual/pre-contractual obligations.

The provision of data subject to your specific consent - possibly given on the Poligrafico e-shop portal - is, on the other hand, optional.

8.  Rights of the data subject  

The data subject may exercise - within the limits of the law - the following rights vis-à-vis Poligrafico:  

the right to obtain confirmation from the data controller as to whether or not personal data relating to you are being processed and, if so, to obtain access to the personal data and information provided for in Art. 15 of the GDPR and, in particular, those relating to the purposes of the processing, the categories of personal data concerned, the recipients or categories of recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed, the storage period, etc;

Finally, please note that the exercise of the above rights may be restricted, delayed or excluded - pursuant to Art. 2-undecies of Legislative Decree 196/2003 as amended, if it may result in actual and concrete prejudice to the conduct of defensive investigations, to the exercise of a right in court, and to the confidentiality of the identity of the employee who reports the offence of which he/she has become aware by reason of his office (so-called whistleblowing).  

Please note, pursuant to Art. 13, para. 2(d) of the GDPR, that the data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the Garante (Italian Data Protection Authority) or another supervisory authority in accordance with Article 77 GDPR.
