Privacy Policy
Cyber Confidence believes digital confidence begins with trust. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we use it and the choices available to you.
1. Who is responsible for your information?
The data controller is MEDACOMI, operating Cyber Confidence from Padova, Italy. Privacy enquiries may be sent to contact@cyberconfidence.org.
2. Information we collect
When you submit the Start a Journey form, we may receive your name, email address, area of interest and the information you include in your message. Our website and security providers may also process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information and request timestamps.
3. Why we use it
- To respond to enquiries and discuss possible programs or partnerships.
- To operate, secure and improve the website.
- To meet applicable legal obligations and protect legitimate interests.
- To send updates only when you have requested them or another valid legal basis applies.
4. Legal bases
Depending on the interaction, processing may be necessary to take steps at your request, based on consent, required by law, or supported by our legitimate interests in operating a safe and effective educational initiative.
5. Providers and international transfers
Information may be processed by carefully selected hosting, form, email, security and analytics providers.. Where information is transferred internationally, appropriate legal safeguards will be used where required.
6. Retention
Enquiries and related correspondence are normally retained for up to 12 months after our last communication. If an enquiry develops into a partnership, sponsorship, program engagement or other contractual relationship, relevant information may be retained for the duration of that relationship and for any additional period required by applicable legal, accounting or safeguarding obligations. Information that is no longer required will be securely deleted or anonymized.
7. Your rights
Subject to applicable law, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of your information, or object to certain processing. You may withdraw consent without affecting earlier lawful processing and may complain to your relevant supervisory authority.
