and security while browsing our website is very important to us. For
this reason, we would like to inform you from the outset about what
personal data we record during your visit and for what purpose this
is used.
We
kindly ask that you read this Privacy Statement regularly because it
may need to be modified in the event that there are changes to the
law or internal business procedures.
This Privacy Statement applies for the SolarBox s.r.l. offering accessible under the domain www.solarbox.it and the various subdomains (hereinafter referred to as "our website").
1.2 What is personal data ?
Personal data is information that can be used to find out your personal or factual circumstances (e.g. name, address, telephone number or e-mail address). Data that could not be used to identify you (or only with a disproportionate level of effort) is not classed as personal data, e.g. data that has been anonymised.
1.3 What personal data do we collect/process and use ?
You can use a large part of our web presence without disclosing personal data. Access data are saved which have no personal connection, such as the name of your Internet service provider, the page from which you are visiting us, the name of the requested files and their access date. These data are exclusively evaluated with a view to improving our offering and gives no indication whatsoever of your identity.
However, insofar as you wish to take advantage of the services offered on our Internet presence, such as ordering a newsletter etc., it is necessary that you specify further data. This is the data required for the particular processing, such as your e-mail address for ordering a newsletter.
We use the data collected about you to provide the products and services we offer, to answer your questions and to operate and improve our websites and applications.
We use your personal data exclusively to be able to offer you an extensive service via our website or, if you use a contact form, e.g. to register for a newsletter, to order a sample product or a white paper, to render the required service.
There is no further use of your personal data. Forwarding of your personal data to third persons or use of your data for advertising purposes without your consent does not take place (except in the case below) unless we are legally required to disclose data (information to criminal prosecution authorities and courts; information to public authorities which receive data on the basis of legal stipulations,e.g. social insurance providers, tax authorities etc.) or engage third parties professionally obliged to maintain secrecy in order to assert our claims. In particular, personal data are used as follows :
When you register with SolarBox s.r.l., mandatory fields are labelled as such (*); all other information is optional. These data are used for the stipulated purposes in order to offer you this service.
In order to register for our e-mail newsletter, besides your consent we required at least your e-mail address to which the newsletter is to be sent. Any other information is voluntary and is used to address you and to be able to personally configure the content of the newsletter and clarify queries about your e-mail address. It is entirely up to you whether you provide us with this data. However, without this information we cannot send you our newsletter.
If you register for the newsletter we will store and use your e-mail address for our own advertising purposes until you unsubscribe from the newsletter. To unsubscribe, you can either send us an informal e-mail to info@solarbox.it or cancel via the link at the end of the newsletter.
1.3.3 Advertising and market research
If you have issued consent to advertising and market research, we use your information extending beyond handling the services you require to also offer an Internet presence geared to your interests and occasionally interesting news and information about our company or our range of goods and services by post or e-mail (in the form of a newsletter) on the basis of your data, tailored to your individual interests, and use your data for the necessary evaluation and for market research purposes. This only takes place internally and only for the purposes mentioned. You can revoke this consent at any time to info@solarbox.it. If you have not given your consent or if you revoke it, there is no use of data in accordance with the previous paragraph. You can, of course, use the services from SolarBox s.r.l., however.
1.4 User profiles / Use of cookies
Apart from in the cases stated above, we do not create any personal user profiles. In connection with the retrieval of the information requested by you, data will only be saved on our servers in an anonymised form to render our various services or for evaluation purposes. General information is logged, e.g. when what content is retrieved from our offering or which sites are most frequently visited.
We use cookies (small text files with configuration information). Cookies are small text files, which, in the course of your visit to our Internet sites, are sent to your browser where they are kept on your computer for subsequent retrieval. We only use 'session cookies' (also known as temporary cookies), i.e. those that are only saved temporarily for the duration of your use of one of our Internet sites.
These cookies, in particular, are used to determine the frequency of use and the number of users of our websites and to continue to identify your computer during a visit to our Internet presence on changing from one of our websites to another of our websites, and to be able to determine the end of your visit.
We therefore know which area of our websites and which other websites our users have visited. This usage data does not allow any indication of the user's identity. In accordance with chapter 1.3 of this Privacy Statement, none of this anonymised usage data collected is merged with your personal data and all data is immediately deleted immediately at the end of the statistical evaluation. At the end of the session, as soon as you finish your browser session, the cookies are deleted.
Most browsers are preset such that they automatically accept cookies. However, you can deactivate saving of cookies or set your browser such that it notifies you before cookies are saved. Users that do not accept cookies may not be able to access certain areas of our websites.

Plug-ins are also contained on our websites from the social networks "Facebook" (Facebook Inc., 1601 S. California Ave, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA) and "Twitter" (Twitter, Inc. 1355 Market St, Suite 900, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA).
These are operated by the respective provider. The plug-ins used in our online presence are identified from the respective button from the service.
If you visit a page of our websites that contains such a plug-in, your browser establishes a connection to the servers from the respective service, as a result of which the content of the plug-in is transmitted to your browser and integrated into the displayed page. This means that the information about the visit to our website is forwarded to the respective service. If, while visiting our website, you are at the same time logged-in to the respective service via your personal user account (e.g. via another browser session), this service can assign the visit on our website to your account.
With the aid of plug-ins, users can share or post links to relevant websites in social networks like Twitter or Facebook or to recommend the contents there. As a result of any active interaction you may make with these plug-ins, e.g. by clicking the respective button or adding a comment, this information is transferred directly to the respective service and stored there. If you want to prevent such a transfer of data from taking place, then you must log off from your user account of the respective service before visiting our website. The extent and purpose of data collection from the respective service and the processing and use of your data is available directly from the data protection notice on the service website (www.facebook.com/about/privacy, twitter.com/privacy). There you will also find further information concerning your applicable data protection rights and setting options for the protection of your privacy.
1.6 Security measures to protect the data we save
We pledge to protect your privacy and to treat your personal data confidentially. We take extensive technical and organisational precautions that are constantly revised to take account of the latest technological developments. However, you should be aware that the Internet is structured in such a way that it is possible that the data protection rules or the above security measures are not followed by our cooperating persons or institutions for which we are not responsible. In particular, details divulged without being encrypted - even if these are by e-mail - can be read by third parties. We have no technical influence over this. It is the responsibility of the user to protect any data made available from misuse either by way of encryption or by other methods.
1.7 Hyperlinks to external websites
Our website includes hyperlinks to websites operated by other providers. Clicking on these hyperlinks takes you from our website directly to the website of the other providers. This can be identified through the change in the URL, etc. We do not accept any responsibility for the confidential handling of your data on these third-party websites, since we cannot influence these companies to comply with the data privacy provisions. You should find out directly on these websites how these companies handle your personal data.

1.9 Information about your personal data saved by us / storage period / deletion
We will only store your personal data for as long as is permitted by law. The deletion of the personal data stored is carried out if you revoke your consent to storage, if knowledge of the data is no longer necessary for the fulfilment of the purpose for which it was saved, especially if the user account is deleted, or if storage is inadmissible on other legal grounds. We would be happy to notify you, on request, which of your personal data we have stored. Despite our efforts to keep correct and current data, should incorrect data be stored, we will correct it promptly at your request.
