Note on Meta Conversions API (CAPI): CAPI transmits event data server-side directly from our infrastructure to Meta's US servers, independently of browser-based cookie mechanisms. This transmission occurs only where the user has provided valid consent to marketing/analytics tracking. The data transmitted includes hashed (SHA-256) identifiers; raw personal data is never sent in plain text.

8. International Data Transfers

Some of our service providers are located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), in particular in the United States. For all such transfers, we rely on one of the following safeguards pursuant to Art. 46 GDPR:

•       Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) as adopted by the European Commission — applicable to: Microsoft Clarity, hCaptcha, Meta Conversions API (Meta Platforms, Inc.), Vimeo, Mailchimp.

•       Adequacy decisions where applicable.

Providers with EU-based legal entities (Google Ireland, Meta Platforms Ireland, AWS EMEA SARL, Brevo, Usercentrics) process data primarily within the EEA; any onward transfers by those entities are governed by their own GDPR-compliant transfer mechanisms.

A copy of the applicable SCCs is available upon written request to info@amfsnaps.com.

9. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, in accordance with the principle of storage limitation (Art. 5(1)(e) GDPR):

•       Customer account data: retained for the duration of the contractual relationship plus 10 years (Italian civil law obligations).

•       Marketing consent and email data: retained until withdrawal of consent or 3 years from last interaction, whichever is earlier.

•       Analytics data: retained in accordance with the retention settings configured in each analytics platform (typically 14 months for Google Analytics).

•       Consent logs (Cookiebot): retained for 12 months.

•       Server logs and security data: retained for 12 months.

Upon expiry of the applicable retention period, data is securely deleted or anonymised.

10. Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed at persons under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal data from minors. Users are required to confirm they are at least 18 years old at the point of registration or purchase. If we become aware that personal data of a minor has been collected without verifiable parental consent, we will delete it promptly. Please contact info@amfsnaps.com if you believe this has occurred.

11. Your Rights Under GDPR

You have the following rights with respect to your personal data, exercisable by contacting info@amfsnaps.com:

•       Right of access (Art. 15): obtain confirmation of whether we process your data and receive a copy.

•       Right to rectification (Art. 16): request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.

•       Right to erasure (Art. 17): request deletion where data is no longer necessary, consent is withdrawn, or processing is unlawful.

•       Right to restriction of processing (Art. 18): request that we limit processing in certain circumstances.

•       Right to data portability (Art. 20): receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

•       Right to object (Art. 21): object to processing based on legitimate interest, including profiling; and to object at any time to direct marketing.

•       Right to withdraw consent (Art. 7(3)): withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

•       Right to lodge a complaint (Art. 77): lodge a complaint with the Garante per la Protezione dei Dati Personali (www.garanteprivacy.it) or any other competent supervisory authority in your country of residence.

We will respond to requests within 30 days (extendable to 90 days for complex requests, with notification). We may need to verify your identity before processing a request.

12. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies on amfgroup.tech. Consent is collected and managed through Cookiebot (Usercentrics). No non-essential tracking scripts are loaded prior to obtaining your consent.

Cookie Categories

•       Essential cookies: strictly necessary for website functionality (authentication, security, session management). No consent required.

•       Performance and analytics cookies: collect aggregated information about website usage to help us improve (e.g. Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity). Require consent.

•       Functional cookies: enable enhanced functionality and personalisation (e.g. language preferences). Require consent.

•       Advertising and targeting cookies: used to deliver relevant advertising and measure campaign effectiveness (e.g. Google Ads, Meta Pixel). Require consent.

Managing Your Consent

On your first visit, a consent banner allows you to accept all, reject non-essential, or customise your preferences by category. You may withdraw or modify your consent at any time via the cookie settings link in the website footer.

For the full list of cookies used, please consult our Cookie Policy: https://the-restory.com/it-en/cookie-policy

13. Direct Marketing

We send marketing communications only where you have provided explicit prior consent (opt-in). Each communication includes an unsubscribe link. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

Marketing channels we use: email, social media platforms, retargeting ads, geotargeted marketing, referral programmes.

We maintain separate records of marketing consent, including the date, source, and version of the privacy policy in force at the time of collection. Transactional emails (order confirmations, service updates) are sent on the basis of contract performance and do not require marketing consent.

14. Policy Updates

We may update this policy to reflect changes in legal requirements, our services, or processing activities. The effective date at the top of this document indicates the most recent revision.

For significant changes affecting your rights or how we process your data, we will notify you by email and/or a prominent notice on the website, and — where required by law — seek your explicit consent before the changes take effect.
