4. Nature of data provision.
The provision of data for the purposes referred to in section 2, letter a), b), c) and f) is mandatory. Failure to provide such data will make it impossible to guarantee the fulfilment of the requested services.

5. Data retention periods.
Data are retained for a period determined by the type of processing and its related purpose. At the end of that period, the data will be permanently deleted or irreversibly anonymised, unless it is necessary to retain the data for a longer period in order to protect the Controller's rights before a judicial authority, to comply with requests from competent authorities, or to fulfil obligations under applicable law.
Without prejudice to the foregoing, the retention periods are as follows:

Solely for the purposes specified above, all data collected and processed may be disclosed to the Controller’s shareholders, employees or collaborators formally authorised to process data by virtue of their respective roles, as well as to third parties to whom it may be necessary to disclose the data (such as, by way of example, third-party companies or other entities carrying out activities in outsourcing on behalf of the Controller, data processing companies, technical service providers, hosting providers, IT companies, communication agencies, insurance companies, consultants and professionals, affiliated companies, agents acting on behalf of the Controller, credit institutions). Such recipients, where they process data on behalf of the Controller, will be designated as data processors pursuant to Article 28 of the GDPR, by means of an appropriate contract or other legal instrument.

10. Specific information for users in the United Kingdom.
This section applies to users in the United Kingdom who interact with the Website www.pointhouse.it. The processing of personal data of such users is governed, in addition to the GDPR, also by the “Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (United Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation)” (hereinafter, “UK GDPR”).
The Controller has not appointed a representative in the United Kingdom as the exemption conditions under Article 27(2)(a) UK GDPR are met (the processing of data of users in the United Kingdom does not take place on a large scale and does not involve special categories of personal data within the meaning of Article 9 UK GDPR, nor data relating to criminal convictions and offences within the meaning of Article 10 UK GDPR).
The transfer of personal data from the United Kingdom to the European Union is lawful by virtue of the adequacy decision adopted by the UK Government in respect of the countries of the European Economic Area, pursuant to Article 45 UK GDPR, which recognises a level of data protection substantially equivalent to that guaranteed by the UK GDPR. Likewise, any transfer of personal data from the European Union to the United Kingdom is permitted by virtue of the adequacy decision of the European Commission in respect of the United Kingdom, adopted pursuant to Article 45 GDPR, which has recognised the level of protection afforded by the UK legal framework as substantially equivalent to that ensured by the GDPR.
Users in the United Kingdom enjoy, by virtue of the UK GDPR, the same rights recognised under Section 9 of this privacy policy. Users in the United Kingdom also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), the competent supervisory authority in the United Kingdom for data protection, located at Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9 5AF, www.ico.org.uk.
Should the purposes or methods of processing of personal data undergo significant changes, we will promptly update this notice.
Gorgo al Monticano (TV), 10 April 2026.
