Data is not disseminated or sold to third parties for marketing purposes. It may be disclosed to competent authorities where required by law.
5. Transfers outside the EU
The main infrastructure and service data reside in Italy. Some providers (Stripe, Google, Microsoft) may process data outside the European Economic Area: in that case the transfer is based on adequacy decisions, the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

We keep data for as long as necessary for the stated purposes: account data and content for the duration of the relationship and until the account is deleted; billing data for the period required by tax obligations (generally 10 years); statistical data according to the durations stated in the Cookie Policy. After these terms, data is deleted or anonymised.
