Collection and processing of personal data – purpose of processing
The following information is personal data under Regulation 2016/679 (Article 4(1)), which defines personal data as any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (the “data subject”).
To provide our services, the Company normally collects the following information, which constitutes ordinary personal data:
- Full name, father’s/mother’s name
- Home/work address
- E-mail address
- Telephone number (landline/mobile) – Occupation
- Tax identification number and tax office
Collecting this information is necessary to verify your identity, to communicate with you, to issue the corresponding tax documents, to draw up private agreements of any kind (such as loan, transfer of use, retention of title, etc.) and, where applicable, to claim our fee. The legal basis for this processing is compliance with our legal obligations (mainly tax legislation) under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR.
In addition, with regard to further processing of data you may already have shared, the Company informs you that the accounting firm we work with must process certain ordinary personal data (specifically: full name, father’s/mother’s name, address, occupation, tax number, tax office) in order to issue the legal invoice for the services we provide to you and to meet our legitimate business interest and our legal tax obligations.
We remind you that you must inform the Company without delay of any change to your personal data. The Company will use this information to update, as required by law, the personal data it holds about you in relation to the services you receive.
Should you refuse to provide the personal data, information or documents required for the purposes described here, we may be unable to provide our services.
