LEGAL BASIS FOR DATA PROCESSING
Except as specifically stated regarding browsing data, the provision of your personal data to LINEA DESIGN Milano S.r.l., as described above, is based on the following lawful grounds for data processing (“legal bases”):

Article 6, paragraph 1, letters b) and f) of the GDPR (performance of a contract; legitimate interest), for the purposes outlined in points a. and b. above;
Article 6, paragraph 1, letter a) of the GDPR (consent), for the purposes outlined in points i. and ii. above.

The provision of your personal data is therefore considered "necessary" for the full achievement of the purposes mentioned under points a. and b. above.

The data subject has the right to withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal. Consent may be withdrawn with the same ease with which it was given.

In this case, the Data Controller will immediately stop this activity.

The legal basis for the sending of such promotional communications is the legitimate interest of the Data Controller, pursuant to Article 6, paragraph 1, letter f) of the GDPR.
