All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

How we protect your data

The site uses the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol designed to allow applications to transmit information securely and securely. SSL is a cryptographic protocol used to secure communication from the source (server) to the recipient (the customer’s browser): https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security

We use the certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt that automates the creation, validation, issue and renewal of X.509 certificates for the TLS protocol for free. The Privacy Policy is available at this address https://letsencrypt.org/privacy/ or alternatively https://letsencrypt.org/repository/

What data breach procedures we have in place

On the server side (by hosting service euroland.it) there is the ModSecurity (mod_security) and the account isolation via Container.

  1. ModSecurity is a multi-platform open source web application firewall (WAF) module. It is a toolkit for monitoring web applications in real time, logging and access control. It is therefore similar to a firewall (additional within Apache), which through a set of configured rules prevents attacks from the outside. Some features are
    – Registration of complete HTTP traffic
    – Evaluation of continuous passive safety
    – Hardening of the Web application
    – For more info https://www.modsecurity.org/about.html
  2. Isolation by Container (containerization): it is a set of processes isolated from the rest of the system, which perform a separate image containing all the files necessary to support these processes. Offering an image that contains all the dependencies of an application. Containers help isolate applications from one another in a shared operating system. Through a special data storage criterion, we try to virtualize the applications, but leaving most of the baggage in a container accessible only according to established criteria.

What third parties we receive data from

The website does not receive data about users from third parties, including advertisers.
