Therefore, VBC does not collect personal information relating to that service from its own site and is not responsible for that service in any way.

These data are used in order to obtain anonymous statistical information on the use of the web page and to allow it to function correctly.
Without prejudice to the provisions elsewhere in this Privacy Information, in no case will VBC make the personal data of Users accessible to other Users and / or third parties.
Your personal data may be processed for the activities carried out on your purchase preferences expressed through your explicit requests sent by filling in the forms on the VBC Site and / or through messages sent through the Social Media you use to which VBC will respond for this purpose.
Your personal data may be the subject of statistical activities carried out on your previous purchase choices and / or on your expressions of interest in purchasing expressed by browsing the VBC Site (aggregate data relating to the pages visited) or by means of direct and explicit requests received by filling in the form or other messages received via social media (including optional data for making the purchase).

Finally, personal data (e.g. log files) could also be used to ascertain responsibility in the event of hypothetical cyber-crimes against the Site.
VBC is keen to make all potentially interested Users understand the value of its fabrics known for their traditional and prestigious quality and beauty. Therefore, and for this reason, VBC carries out targeting activities to market our products to specific market segments or to understand the interest of Users on certain topics related to VBC products or company philosophy (e.g. fabric traceability) through some social platforms (e.g. Facebook). VBC does not collect personal information on a single individual, but can, through the collection of aggregate data, for example, obtain information relating to the interest of Users after making a new communication transmitted via social platforms. This information is divided according to the gender, nationality, language used by the browser, the interests of the Users, the number of actions, the impressions, the number of people who perform an action and the average of daily impressions.
“LinkedIn” also informs, again at a statistical level, on visitors to the pages viewed, divided by sectors, by profession, by company size.
From social networks, VBC also receives statistics on Users’ clicks on a social page that leads them to VBC (referral) through “Matomo Analytics”, functions, to understand how visitors interact with the apps and sites themselves.
It also integrates with Google Ads, allowing you to review the performance of online advertising campaigns by tracking Site visits and the queries performed by users in the Google search engine. This data can in fact be statistically deduced by the Matomo Analytics service only from the use of the service itself. More information on the Google Ads service as an independent data controller is available here
In addition to the pages visited, the collected data may also include, by way of example but not limited to, the domain names and the type of browser of the computers used to connect to the Site, the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) addresses of the resources. requests, the time of the request, parameters regarding the operating system and the IT environment you use.
The data collected in the manner set out above are used by Matomo for the purpose of tracing and examining the use of the Site, compiling reports on its activities which can be viewed by the authorized Site operators and providing other services relating to the activities of the Site and Internet usage.
Google (regarding functionality related to YouTube) states that it uses a tool that anonymises IP addresses, truncating them within the territory of EU member states and the European Economic Area.
Google may also use the data to contextualize and personalize the advertisements of its own advertising network. The administrators of our Site and VBC as Data Controller cannot in any way connect the data collected with your identity, either directly or indirectly.
In fact, the information it obtains from this VBC service only reports aggregate statistics divided by:
– sessions, page views, average session duration, pages per session
– Social Media: Users from Facebook, Naver, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Instagram stories, YouTube, Reddit, Blogger.
VBC is also present in the “Naver” platform which is a search engine widely used especially in South Korea. Users who communicate using the same platform can find information about VBC and its products through bloggers present there with their followers. The services are provided by Naver Co., Ltd. based in Bundang-gu Seongnam-si in South Korea (and by its affiliated companies) as indicated in the privacy policy of their Site, which can be found here, where details to exercise their rights on the processing of personal data are also reported. VBC receives from its Data Processors on Naver only personal data of an aggregate type from statistical services and the transmission of advertising messages by entering the Naver search engine.
On all the platforms used (Matomo Analytics) VBC receives and processes only statistically aggregated data that do not identify Users.
The provision of personal data which, on the form in the Site Section, are marked with an asterisk is mandatory. Failing that, VBC will not be able to contact you to process your request.
In particular, in the “Careers” section, if you do not consent to the processing of your personal data belonging to special categories, and also, if you decide to include it, to the processing of data relating to your image (photos and videos) for the purposes and with the methods described above, in the absence of consent, it will not be possible to carry out further processing and therefore a full evaluation of your candidacy will not be possible.
The provision of personal data is optional with regards to analysis and profiling cookies. In the first case, VBC will not be able to improve its services because it will not be able to access the statistical information relating to the user’s navigation and in the second case the User will not be able to view the video from YouTube (third party, independent Data Controller).
The data will be processed exclusively by staff and collaborators or by those expressly appointed as Data Processor. Apart from these hypotheses, the data will not be disclosed to third parties or disseminated, except in the cases specifically provided for by national or European Union law.
VBC will keep your Personal Data in Italy at its headquarters and will not transfer your personal data to third countries, nor will it be disclosed to third parties, without your prior express consent and / or unless you are required to do so by law or to defend our rights, in our legitimate interest and always in compliance with the GDPR.
Countries not belonging to the European Economic Area (EEA, i.e. EU + Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland) or to an international organization are considered third countries for the purposes of this information, provided that the suitability of the third country or organization is recognized by decision of the European Commission (Article 45 of EU Regulation 2016/679).
The personal data collected through platforms or social accounts to which the User is connected are not under the direct control of VBC except when the User voluntarily contacts us through them (e.g. message sent to VBC through Facebook, or a sign of appreciation (so-called Like) inserted in a VBC page disclosed through social media) or wishes to voluntarily view a video using “YouTube” (in this case, the user must expressly accept the cookie installed by this third party (YouTube Llc) based in California (USA), who is also an independent Data Controller). In this case, the transfer of the User’s personal data abroad (United States) by YouTube could take place by means of sharing on the aforementioned social media for which the User has knowingly given prior consent to the processing of the aforementioned owners of platforms in which the relevant information should be found.
The data may be transferred abroad to non-European countries, and in particular to the United States, only after verification of the Standard Contractual Clauses adopted/approved by the European Commission pursuant to Article 46, paragraph 2, letters c) and d) of the GDPR or the binding rules for the company referred to in Article 47 of the GDPR or, in the absence thereof, pursuant to one of the derogatory measures referred to in Article 49 of the GDPR.
A copy of the guarantees referred to in Article 46, paragraph 2, letters c) and d) of the GDPR may be obtained by sending an e-mail to the following address: privacy at vitalebarberiscanonico.it.
Personal data may be collected within systems located outside the European Union other than the US (e.g.: Korea, Japan, etc.) in the cases mentioned in this Policy.
It is recommended to read the policies of the various platforms on which VBC may be present, as these platforms often declare – as independent data controllers – both that they may transfer data abroad and that they may share processed personal data with their business partners.
In any case, VBC will not proceed with the transfer of personal data abroad, however if carried out by VBC, the transfers will be based alternatively on an adequacy decision or on the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.
For Chinese users browsing this site, the European General Data Protection Regulation applies in addition to that related to their browsing experience outlined in the Chinese privacy policy available here.
