Privacy and data collection

This website (martinamenzini.com) does not collect any personally identifying information about its users. Visitors can use the site without registering or revealing any personal information about them. As for most websites, my web server collects anonymous statistical data such as the number of visits, pages viewed, browser used, keywords typed, etc. The visitor’s IP address is collected for this purpose.
In order to post a comment, visitors are required to provide their email address and name (or pseudonym). Users’ email addresses will never be shared or sold to any third party unless required by law. Security measures such as passwords, firewalls, and antivirus programs are in place to prevent any unauthorized access to this information. While every effort is made to protect users’ personal information, I can not be held liable for any fraudulent access by an unauthorized third party. If you choose to disclose your personal information, you do so at your own risk. You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages and I reserve the right to delete any message at my discretion.

Social Plugins (eg. Meta, Twitter, Pinterest…)

This website uses social plugins (“plugins”) provided by the social network under the Meta umbrella, operated by Meta “Facebook” Inc., 1601 S. California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. The plugins are identifiable by the logo. When you visit a page of this website that contains a social plugin, your browser establishes a direct connection to its servers. Meta directly transfers the plugin content to your browser which embeds the latter into the website, enabling Meta to receive information about your having accessed the respective page of our website. Thus I have no influence on the data gathered by the plugin and inform you according to my state of knowledge: The embedded plugins provide Meta with the information that you have accessed the corresponding page of this website. If you are logged into Meta, your visit can be assigned to your Meta accounts. If you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking “Like”, or entering a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from this browser directly to Meta and stored by it. Even if you are not logged in, there is a possibility that the plugins transmit your IP address to Meta. For information on the purpose and scope of data collection and procession by Meta, as well as your rights in this respect and settings options for protecting your privacy please visit Meta’s privacy policy: http://www.facebook.com/policy.php. If you are a Meta member and do not want Meta to connect the data concerning your visit to our website with your member data already stored by Meta, please log off your accounts before entering our website. The same may apply to other Social Plugins, such as Twitter or Pinterest.

It is up to Martina Menzini to delete any comments. If, in the owners opinion, comments are not appropriate, they will be deleted permanently without prior warning. Comments which purposely insult Martina Menzini, as a person, this website (martinamenzini.com), or third parties will also be deleted. No form of hate is tolerated.
