Privacy & cookie notice
Pursuant to Article 13 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR).
Data controller
Salvatore Noschese
42046 Reggiolo (RE)
Data processed
- Technical connection data (IP address, date and time, requested address, browser), recorded by the hosting provider to run and protect the service. The controller does not use it to identify you.
- The technical cookies described in the “Cookies” section.
- Anonymous visit statistics (pages viewed, type of browser and device), see the “Visit statistics” section.
Purposes and legal basis
- Showing you the page and keeping the service secure: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in the security and operation of the service).
- Remembering the language or theme you choose: technical cookies, set only at your choice.
- Understanding how the page is used, in anonymous, aggregated form: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in knowing how the service is used).
Retention
- Technical connection data is kept by the hosting provider under its own rules; the controller does not keep it.
- The language and theme cookies last 1 year and you can delete them at any time (“Cookies” section).
- Raw visit-statistics data is kept for 24 months, then deleted; only anonymous, aggregated totals remain.
Recipients
Your data is never sold or shared for marketing purposes. Technical connection data is processed by the hosting provider, as processor.
Payments and third parties
This page only lists ways to donate and processes no payment. If you use one (Ko-fi, PayPal, Revolut) or send cryptocurrency, the payment data is processed by that service under its own privacy policy, or recorded on a public blockchain, where transactions are visible to everyone and cannot be deleted.
Opening the links is your choice: nothing is sent to those services until you do. The QR codes are drawn by your browser, with no external service.
Links to the controller’s other sites (such as “About me” and “Contact me”) carry only this page’s language and theme in the address, nothing else.
Visit statistics
Visits are counted with Matomo, open source analytics software hosted by the controller (stats.salvatorenoschese.it), in cookieless mode: no cookie and no persistent identifier, and the IP address is anonymised before being stored. It records the pages viewed and the type of browser and device, used only in anonymous, aggregated form. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in knowing how the service is used). No data is sent to Google or other third parties.
Cookies
These cookies are required for the service to work and don’t need consent.
| Name | Duration | In your browser |
|---|---|---|
__Host-sp_lang |
1 year | Not set |
| Remembers the language chosen from the menu. Without this cookie the site uses your browser language. | ||
__Host-sp_theme |
1 year | Not set |
| Remembers the light/dark theme chosen with the 🌓 button. Without this cookie the site follows your device theme. | ||
sp.view |
Until the tab is closed | Not set |
| In the tab’s memory (sessionStorage), not a cookie, and never sent to the server. Keeps the light/dark theme brought by a link from another site (?view=), so the whole visit has the same look. It is not a saved choice: the 🌓 button replaces it. Technical, like the cookies above: no consent needed. | ||
These are all technical cookies: the law only requires the notice you are reading, not consent, which is why there is no cookie banner. The language and theme cookies are only set when you choose them (language menu and 🌓 button) and you can delete them above at any time: without them the site uses your browser language and device theme. No profiling, analytics or third-party cookies.
Visit statistics (Matomo, see above) use no cookies: that is why they are not in this table and need no consent.
Your rights
You may at any time request access to, rectification or erasure of your data, restriction of or objection to processing, and data portability (Articles 15–22 GDPR) through the contact page. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority; in Italy, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (Article 77 GDPR).
