Privacy policy

By this policy, Pixartprinting S.p.A. intends informing the users visiting "www.gifta.com" Website (hereinafter, the “ Website”) of the policy established with regard to Personal Data Protection, emphasising its own commitment and care concerning protection of the privacy of visitors to the Website. You are kindly invited to read our Privacy Policy that applies both in case you access the website and decide to merely browse through it using our services, without purchasing any product, and in case you decide to make some purchases.

You are furthermore invited to read, if you have not already done so, the Terms of Use of the Website as they also contain important indications about the security systems adopted by the Website.

Browsing through the Website is free and does not require any registration, except for some areas where the user can freely and expressly provide a series of data concerning his person to access specifically identified services (e.g., to be able to proceed with purchases, subscribe to the newsletter or request information from us, etc.). Should the visitor, therefore, intend providing us with his personal data to access such additional services, he will be expressly informed pursuant to Legislative Decree No. 196 of 30 June 2003 “Personal Data Protection Code” (the “Code”) and Regulation (EU) 2016/679 “General Data Protection Regulation” (the “Regulation”), along with the indication (by way of illustration) of the purposes and methods of using the data by Pixartprinting S.p.A., as well as the right to request at any time access to, the erasure of the data or their updating. Any reference to the Code found in the Privacy Policy, and in the Website in general, must be considered valid and effective within the limits and to the extent that the legal rules recalled remain in force subsequently to the implementation date of the Regulation (25 May 2018). The website is not intended for children under the age of sixteen, who are also forbidden from creating an account or otherwise providing their personal data.

Pursuant to the Code and the Regulation, Pixartprinting S.p.A. provides the following information.

1. The Data Controller and Data Processors

The personal Data Controller is Pixartprinting S.p.A., based in Via 1° Maggio 8, 30020, Quarto d’Altino (VE), Tax Code and VAT No. C 04061550275, Registration in the Companies Registry of Venice no. 04061550275, Share Capital EUR 1.000.000.00 fully paid up, e-mail support@gifta.com (hereinafter “Pixartprinting”, the “Data Controller” or the “Company”).

On exclusively organisational and functional grounds, we have appointed some service providers instrumental to management of the Website as external processors of users’ personal data for purposes strictly associated with and related to performance of the services provided by the Website, including the sale of products. In accordance with Article 37 of the Regulation, the Data Protection Officer may be contacted by sending an email to: dpo@pixartprinting.com.

2. Types of personal data processed

To access the Website, you do not have to proceed with any registration. Inside the Website, however, there are sections requiring registration or the use of username and password (e.g. to register in the customer area or finalise the online purchasing process), or services for the use of which you have to provide your data (e.g. your data might be requested to access newsletter services, to contact us, etc.).

3. Voluntary nature of the provision of personal data

The provision of personal data is generally speaking optional.
