A summary of our privacy policy
The following are the principles on which our privacy policy is based:
1. processing data exclusively for the purposes and according to the methods illustrated in the information presented when the data was collected;
2. only using the data for purposes in addition to those for which it was specifically released when the user has expressly consented;
3. only providing access to data to third parties for purposes which are essential for performing the service requested and within the context of appointing a data controller; not communicating data, assigning it or transferring it to third parties for their own specific processing unless the users have been informed in advance and have given their consent;
4. responding to requests for cancelling, changing or adding the data provided, opposing the processing of data for the purposes of sending commercial and advertising information;
5. insuring proper and lawful data management, safeguarding the privacy of users, as well as applying appropriate security measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the data provided.
How and why we process your personal data
Your personal data is processed using primarily electronic and telematic means by Playstereo and by other parties who, having been appropriately selected for their reliability and expertise, perform operations which are instrumental to pursuing purposes that are strictly related to use of the web site, its services and to the purchasing of products through the web site (see too, the paragraph “Parties who may process your personal data”).
Generally, the data is processed to perform the following services, which are available by accessing our site:
1. registration or subscription to services offered by the Playstereo world, such as, for example, the benefits proposed by the Try it for 30 days, the Questions section, the newsletter, sharing your likes with friends of yours who are registered on the site, and through your social media accounts;
2. order fulfilment and related activities;
3. management of payments, including anti-fraud control in case of payment by credit/debit card (in which case the data released during the purchase process will be sent to the person in charge of antifraud control);
4. management of your requests: technical, of a commercial nature, regarding the progress of your orders, as well as requests for information in the broader sense;
5. making contact with our service professionals (Press Office, Business Development, Web Marketing, Purchasing Office, Customer Care);
6. request to be considered as a member of our staff, by sending a CV;
7. sending, upon your consent, and for marketing purposes, commercial communications through various channels, both electronic and telematic (e-mail, sms) as well as using traditional methods (paper-based mail, telephone). The owner may use data to send e-mails advertising its own products and services that are similar to those already purchased, unless such use is denied;
8. sending, upon your consent, for profiling purposes to improve your navigation experience on the site, commercial proposals which are in line with your interests. Profiling is carried out, for example, through the use of third party cookies. To that end, we ask that you read our Cookie policy
In processing data which could directly or indirectly identify you, we seek to follow a principle of strict necessity.
Therefore, we have configured the site in such a way that your personal data is reduced to a minimum: therefore, the processing of your data is excluded when the purposes pursued in the individual cases can be achieved through the use of anonymous data (such as, for example, market research aimed at improving services) or through other means which allow the person concerned to be identified only in case of necessity or at the request of the authorities or police forces (such as, for example, for data relating to traffic and to your presence on the web site, or to your IP address).
Your data will be communicated to third parties only with your express consent, except in cases where communication is mandatory by law or is necessary for the purposes prescribed by the law to pursue purposes for which the consent of the interested person is not requested; in these cases, data may be made available to third parties that will independently process it, and only for the aforementioned purposes (for example, in the case of a request made by the police or judiciary, or other competent entities, or to perform obligations deriving from the contract entered with you, as is the case with communication to Paypal Inc., for payments of purchased products).
Any processing purpose other than the one specified for which you have provided your personal data shall be demonstrated in the information and shall only be pursued by Playstereo upon obtaining your express consent.
There are, moreover, processes for which the legislation provides for excluding consent: for example, we inform you that Playstereo may process your personal data without obtaining your consent when this is needed to perform a legal obligation or when this is necessary to perform the obligations that have been contractually assumed towards you. Playstereo, without any obligation to obtain your express consent, can use your data for direct selling activities involving products similar to those you have already purchased and for opinion survey, unless you refuse to allow such use of the e-mail address you communicated to us.
Lastly, we inform you that your personal data will not be transferred abroad to countries that do not belong to the European Union, or which do not provide adequate levels of personal protection. In the event this is necessary to provide you with services, or to enter into a contract with Playstereo to purchase products, we assure you that the transfer of your personal data to countries which do not belong to the European Union or which do not provide an adequate level of protection shall be performed only prior to the signing by Playstereo and said parties of specific contracts in accordance with the applicable law and regulations.
Playstereo may end up processing personal data of third parties which has been directly communicated to Playstereo by its own users, for example in the case where a user has purchased a product to give to a friend, or when the party paying the price to purchase the product is different from the party for whom the product is intended, or even when the user intends to inform a friend of a service on playstereo.com or of a sales offer of a particular product.
On these occasions, Playstereo will take steps to deliver the information to the third party when it registers said party’s data in its own archives, but you are still responsible for obtaining the consent of the person whose data is indicated prior to communicating it to Playstereo and to informing said party about this Privacy Policy, because you will be the sole party responsible for communicating information and data relating to third parties, without them having expressed their consent or for any use by them which is incorrect or contrary to law.
We inform you that these parties’ consent is not necessary when the data is communicated to Playstereo to enter the contract, with Playstereo, in favour of the third party.
Playstereo reserves the right to eliminate Playstereo accounts and all related data in the event that unlawful content, content that is damaging to Playstereo’s image and/or its products or those of third parties, or content which is nevertheless offensive or which promotes illegal or defamatory activities, pornographic content, content which incites people to violence, which promotes discrimination with regard to race, sex, religion or sexual orientation, is detected.
Parties that may process your personal data
Playstereo has decided to use third parties to process your personal data for certain activities. Third parties who perform these operations have been appropriately selected and have the experience, capacity and reliability, and offer a suitable guarantee that they will fully comply with the current provisions on processing, including the data security profile.
These third parties have been appointed “data controllers” where necessary, and perform their activity according to the instructions given by Playstereo, and under its control (see section “Data controllers”). We periodically verify that the controllers have performed the tasks assigned to them in a timely manner and that they continue to provide appropriate guarantees that the provisions on the protection of personal data have been fully respected.
Your data is then processed by the individuals in charge of the specific services; the class of agent that performs these activities is dependent on the purposes for which the data was provided, and is always indicated in the information presented to you when your personal data is released.
Security measures
We adopt adequate security measures to reduce to a minimum the risks of destruction or loss, including accidental – of data, unauthorized access or unapproved processing or processing which does not conform to the purposes of collection indicated in our Privacy Policy.
However, Playstereo may not guarantee to its users that the measures adopted for the security of the site and the transmission of the data and information on the site limit or exclude any risk of access without consent, or dissemination of data by devices belonging to the user: we advise you to make sure that your computer is equipped with adequate software to protect against the transmission in data networks, whether through input or output (such as updated antivirus systems) and that your Internet service provider has adopted suitable measures on network data transmission security (such as, for example, firewalls and spam filters). On playstereo.com, every purchase is made with the utmost security thanks to the use of the most advanced technological and coding systems (SSL).
