Providers and international transfers
Inquiries are accessible to the people responsible for handling them at Farolo. Amazon Web Services hosts the website in Ireland; OVHcloud provides email; Google processes optional analytics. These providers process the information needed for their roles under their applicable service and data-protection terms. Farolo may disclose relevant information where required by law or necessary to handle a legal claim.
Although the website is hosted in the European Economic Area, providers may process data or provide support from other countries. Google may transfer analytics data to the United States and describes its transfer safeguards, including the EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework, in its documentation.

Retention periods
Farolo retains inquiry emails for as long as necessary to respond and handle related follow-up. Information needed for an ongoing relationship or a legal obligation may be retained longer for that purpose.
Technical information is kept only for as long as needed to operate the website, investigate faults or abuse, and handle any resulting incident or legal claim. Cookie durations are listed in the cookie policy.
Analytics data is retained for the time needed to measure visits and understand how the website is used. Information about the retention periods applied to this data can be requested at team@farolo.eu. Analytics cookie durations are listed in the cookie policy.
Data protection rights
Depending on the circumstances, you can request access, correction, deletion, restriction, or portability of your personal data. You can object to processing based on legitimate interests. You can withdraw analytics consent at any time; withdrawal does not change the lawfulness of earlier processing.
Requests to exercise data protection rights may be sent to: team@farolo.eu
You can complain to a data-protection authority, particularly in the country where you live, work, or believe an infringement occurred. In Italy, this is the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali.
