In the event of a merger, acquisition, restructuring, or sale of assets, personal data may be transferred to the relevant third party as part of that transaction, subject to applicable data protection laws and appropriate safeguards.

No sale or unauthorized sharing of personal data

We do not sell personal data to third parties.

6. International transfers (data leaving the country/EEA) & safeguards

Your data may be processed in countries other than the country where it was collected. For example, some service providers may process data outside Italy or outside the European Economic Area (“EEA”).

Where the GDPR applies and personal data is transferred outside the EEA to countries not recognized as providing adequate protection, we use appropriate safeguards such as:

  • European Commission Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs), and/or
  • other lawful transfer mechanisms recognized under applicable law.

You can request more information about transfers and safeguards by contacting us at info@ixla.it.

  • Website logs/security records: retained for an undefined period unless needed to investigate incidents
  • Legal obligations: retained as required by applicable law (e.g., accounting, compliance)

When retention expires, data is deleted, anonymized, or securely archived (where legally required).

 

8. Security practices

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.

Measures may include (as appropriate):

  • access controls and least‑privilege permissions
  • secure hosting and network protections
  • encryption in transit (HTTPS/TLS) and, where appropriate, encryption at rest
  • logging and monitoring for security incidents
  • internal policies and staff confidentiality obligations

No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect data using industry‑appropriate safeguards.
