Privacy & Cookies Policy

Website operator and privacy contact

For the limited processing described in this policy, the website operator is the data controller. The operator's identity is shown in the footer of this website. For privacy questions or requests, please use the contact email address published on the website homepage.

What data may be processed

This website does not provide account registration, contact forms, newsletters, comments, purchases, or other features designed to collect personal data directly from visitors.

Like virtually every website, the hosting provider and related technical infrastructure may process limited technical data generated by your browser and connection. This may include your IP address, device and browser information, operating system, requested pages, date and time of access, and security or error logs. These data are used only where necessary to operate, protect, maintain, and troubleshoot the website.

When you contact me

The website includes a link that allows you to get in touch by email. If you choose to send an email, the information you provide, such as your name, email address, message content, and any attachments, is used only to read, manage, and reply to your request, or to take steps connected with it. No separate customer database, mailing list, or marketing profile is created from email correspondence. Messages remain in the relevant email inbox only for as long as reasonably necessary to manage the exchange or meet applicable legal obligations.

Cookies and local storage

This website does not use advertising cookies, profiling cookies, marketing pixels, analytics tools, or other technologies designed to track visitors across websites or build profiles about them.

The website uses your browser's local storage only to remember two technical preferences: your selected language and your preferred light or dark theme. These preferences are stored locally on your device under the keys “brando-site-language” and “brando-site-theme”. They are not used to identify you, monitor your behaviour, or share information with third parties.

Because the website currently uses only these strictly functional preferences and does not use profiling or advertising trackers, no cookie consent banner is displayed. This will be reviewed if the website's technologies change in the future.

Third-party technical services

To display the website correctly, some technical resources are loaded from external providers, including Google Fonts, jsDelivr, and unpkg. When your browser requests those resources, the relevant provider may receive technical connection data such as your IP address, browser information, and the requested resource. These services are used solely to deliver fonts, layout assets, and interface icons.

The website may also contain links to external websites and social platforms. Those links do not load content from those services automatically. Once you choose to open an external link, the privacy policy of the destination website applies.

Why data may be processed

Where personal data are processed, the legal basis depends on the context. Technical connection data may be processed where necessary for the legitimate interest of operating a secure and reliable website. Data sent by email may be processed to respond to your request and, where applicable, to take steps before entering into a professional relationship. Personal data are not sold, rented, or used for automated decision-making or advertising purposes.

Your rights

Subject to the conditions and limits established by applicable data protection law, you may request access to your personal data, correction of inaccurate data, deletion, restriction of processing, portability where applicable, or object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority, including the Italian Garante per la protezione dei dati personali where applicable.

To exercise your rights, please use the contact email address published on the website homepage.

Updates to this policy

This policy may be updated when the website changes, for example if new features, forms, analytics, embedded content, or third-party services are introduced. The latest version will always be available on this page and will show its most recent update date.
