Server log files
When you open a page your browser transmits data that our server records: IP address, date and time, the page requested, referrer, browser and operating system. This is needed to deliver and secure the site (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR — our legitimate interest in reliable, secure operation). Log data is not merged with other sources.
The request form
When you send the request form, your entries (name, email address, company and your message) are transmitted to our server and forwarded to us by email so that we can answer you (Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR). If you have allowed analytics, your email address is also stored with your visit history (see Analytics); otherwise your entries are not stored in a database. They are never used for anything else. If mail delivery is unavailable, your own email program opens a pre-filled draft instead and nothing reaches our server until you send it yourself.
Analytics
Without your consent, and until you choose, each page you open is counted anonymously. The last part of your IP address is removed before anything else happens; the shortened address, your browser's identifier and a random value that is deleted at midnight (UTC) form a key that lets us count one visit per day without knowing who you are or recognising you the next day. We keep the page, the referring site, campaign parameters, your approximate location (country, region, city), device type, browser, operating system and time on the page. Apart from your cookie choice, nothing is stored on your device. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in knowing how the site is used (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR), within section 7.2 of the Italian data protection authority's 2021 cookie guidelines. With your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, Art. 122 Codice privacy) we record your visits in full: a random visitor id and session id kept in your browser, your full IP address and the location derived from it, browser and device details (user agent, screen and window size, languages, time zone, colour scheme, connection), where you came from (landing page, referring page, campaign parameters and ad click ids), and what you do here: pages and their titles, time spent, scroll depth, clicks and their position, form steps (field names only, never what you type) and loading speed. If you then send the request form, your email address is linked to this history, so we know what you read before writing to us. We use this to see which pages and channels work and to prepare for your enquiry. Everything is stored on our own server in the EU, is not passed to anyone and is deleted after 25 months. You can withdraw your consent at any time under Cookie settings in the footer, also at the end of this page: turning analytics off deletes what we recorded about you at once and removes the ids from your browser.
Sign-in
Signing in runs on Invariance's own authentication service at authentication.invariance.co. Account data stays with us and is not processed by an outside provider. This applies only if you actively sign in; simply reading the public site does not.
Cookies
No advertising or third-party cookies are used. A cookie stores your language choice, and a session cookie is added only if you sign in. Your browser's storage keeps your cookie choice (inv-consent; a refusal is asked again after six months) and, only with analytics consent, a visitor id (inv-v, until you withdraw) and a session id (inv-s, for the open tab).
Your rights
You have the right of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection. Write to contact@invariance.co.
Right to complain
You may lodge a complaint with the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (garanteprivacy.it).
