Below, we describe the 'basic' processing operations related to the Websites, which apply independently of the Website and/or related platform considered.

The Websites carry out some processing of personal data that are homogeneous and that apply without distinction to all the Websites referred to in this Privacy Notice. 
These processing operations are better described in this Chapter III) and concern personal data collected during browsing, data required for the login/registration of an online account and/or collected through customer care contact. For each processing operation, the categories of personal data involved, the purposes and legal basis, and the storage period are defined. 

In the event of a conflict between the contents of this Chapter III) describing the processing operations present and common to the Websites and the contents of the specific sections dedicated to each Website, the provisions of the specific sections shall prevail.

1. Website Navigation

Type of data processed: the IP addresses or domain names of the computers used to connect to the Websites, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) notation addresses of the resources requested, the time of the request, the method used to submit the request to the server, the size of the file obtained in response, the numerical code indicating the status of the response given by the server (successful, error, etc.) and other parameters relating to the user's operating system and computer environment.

Purpose and legal basis: data are automatically acquired by technical and necessary cookies installed to enable web browsing, carry out aggregate statistical analyses aimed at measuring the proper functioning of web pages and, in the event of computer crimes against the platforms, ascertain any liability.
The legal basis legitimising the processing of this data is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller in ensuring the proper functioning of the platforms and services available, as well as in the investigation of possible offences.
In any case, failure to provide data will preclude the possibility of using the navigability and services of the Websites.

Data retention time: data are normally retained for short periods of time, as set out in more detail in the Cookie Policy, with the exception of possible extensions related to survey activities.

In addition to the cookies necessary for browsing, other types of cookies that will enable the Data Controler to capture additional data relating to Users’ browsing experience can be installed. In this case, however, the processing is subject to the User’s consent, provided via the cookie panel. For more details, please read the Cookie Policy.

Purpose and legal basis: personal data are required in order to fulfil registration requests and allow access to content related to the services/products and/or courses purchased and, where applicable, to be redirected to the site in your country.
The processing is necessary in order to take steps at the request of the user prior to entering into a contract or perform a contract to which the user is party and/or, in any case, to follow up a request by the User, and failure to provide the data will not allow the User to take advantage of the digital services purchased.

Any other information spontaneously inserted by the user in the message text, where present, may also be processed; Davines, therefore, invites Users to provide only the information that is actually necessary. Without prejudice to the foregoing, please refer to the specific sections dedicated to each Website for further information.

Purposes and legal basis: personal data is acquired to enable Davines to collect and manage Users' requests relating both to an order and/or products purchased and/or to be purchased (information relating to the status of purchases made, their delivery, any returns/refunds, defects in products received, etc.) and more general requests for information (relating, for example, to initiatives and events, product characteristics, etc.) and, therefore, to offer the best pre- and post-sales support to Users. Based on the request, Davines might forward it to the territorially competent subsidiary.

5. Remarketing and Retargeting

The platforms use Remarketing technologies to communicate, optimise and process advertisements based on users' browsing. In particular, the information collected (IP address and e-mail) is transferred to the partner below, to which the Remarketing activity is linked, to categorise users of the platforms by dividing them into user groups. Based on the different user groups, personalised advertising on Davines products and services is proposed to users on other sites/applications. Processing is carried out on the basis of the User's consent given via the cookie panel; consent may be revoked at any time. The User may also choose not to opt-in to certain advertising features through the corresponding device configuration options.

The Davines Professional website makes use of the following marketing/retargeting tools:

  • Facebook pixel: The so-called Facebook pixel is a piece of software that is embedded in the pages of the Website in order to track the passage of users, create a link between the user's visit to the Website and Facebook, and collect useful data to optimise marketing strategies and improve the performance of campaigns on Facebook. When the pixel is loading, Facebook installs a cookie on the user's computer that helps Facebook to offer more personalised advertising, but also to measure and improve advertising. When the cookie is installed, Facebook is able to track the user's browsing behaviour across other websites that have applied a Facebook pixel or a Facebook social plug-in. This mechanism only works if the user decides to activate the cookies by giving the appropriate consent.
    For more information, please refer to the sections in the following link.

  • TikTok Pixel: The TikTok Pixel is a snippet of code that is added to the Website to share Website events with TikTok. With the TikTok for Business tools, the pixel can help Davines monitor traffic on the Website, measure and optimise the performance of advertising campaigns and find new clients. For more information, please refer to the sections at the following link.

  • YouTube pixel: The YouTube pixel (a platform owned by Google) is used for sharing videos. Cookies are set when accessing the page containing the embed, and when starting the video, and do not allow identification of the User unless they are already logged into their Google profile. The pixel may make it possible to acquire data such as the number and behaviour of users of the service, IP address, information linking visits to the site to the Google account for users who are already logged in, video viewing preferences. For more information, please refer to the sections under the following links: Google's privacy policy and How Google uses data.
For further details, please refer to the Cookie Policy.

6. Profiling

Type of data processed: data relating to purchases - also relating to the other brands of the Davines S.p.A. Group (Davines and Comfort Zone) - country of origin, gender and age, preferences expressed (e.g. products and/or services purchased, etc.), interaction with Davines through the Websites and social channels (e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok, etc.). Finally, Davines may enrich the user profile with information of a statistical nature that may be lawfully acquired from other sources: for example, in relation to the area in which the user is based (e.g. demographic information, georeferencing data, etc.) or the electronic tools that the user uses to interact with Davines.

Purpose and legal basis profiling allows for the analysis of the user's purchasing/service habits and/or preferences, as well as navigation or other identifying data produced by the devices, applications, tools and protocols used in order to create a user profile, to place the user in groups of homogenous profiles, to carry out statistical and market analyses aimed at identifying products and/or services of interest improve Davines products and/or services in line with customer preferences, as well as to send personalised commercial communications based on the user profile, the purchasing habits of the last twelve (12) months, and the browsing experience on the Websites and, in general, to propose marketing and remarketing services thanks also to the information collected via cookies or other identifiers. Personal data is processed using automated tools, including those owned by third parties. In order to process this data, Davines requires consent, which the user may revoke at any time by accessing the reserved area or by writing to gdpr@davines.it. In addition, the user may manage his or her browsing preferences by accessing the relevant section via the Cookie Panel, which is located in the footer of the Web Site.
Failure to provide data for the purpose at issue will not preclude the use of the Website and related services, but will not allow the user to receive personalised communications.

    The data is processed in order to fulfil a specific request of the Sales Representative and/or in the context of the existing contractual relationship between the parties, and failure to provide data in the context of testing may in some cases not allow the course started to be completed.
  3. Pleasure questionnaires
    The data can also be used for customer satisfaction activities with the support of any questionnaires, anonymous or otherwise, to assess satisfaction with a course.
    When the user takes part in one of the opinion questionnaires or similar campaigns, the data processed are only those necessary for the proper administration of the questionnaire, in line with its purpose; additional socio-demographic information may also be collected.
    In some cases, it is possible to participate in the questionnaire/survey without prior authentication and, therefore, to fill in the questionnaire anonymously. Where this is not possible, the processing of user data is carried out on the basis of consent, which can also be expressed by conclusive behaviour through participation in the survey . For some surveys, it is necessary to be able to technically exclude double participation or a resumption of the interrupted survey. This necessity is, as a rule, pursued through the use of personalised links or cookies.
    In any case, failure to provide personal data for the satisfaction questionnaires will in no way preclude the use of the training courses.
