Privacy notice

Who is responsible

The data controller is Massimiliano Cori (Italy), who runs Italy Strikes Today as an independent project. You can contact us through the contact form or by replying to any email we send.

What we collect

Only what you type in our forms: for strike alerts, your email, travel dates and place; for the contact form, your email and message; for the business request form, your work email, company and request. We also record the page or link you came from, to understand which channels work.

Why

To send you strike alerts for your travel dates, and to answer your messages. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time.

Who processes data for us

The site and its forms are hosted by Netlify, Inc., which stores form data on our behalf and may process it outside the EU with the safeguards required by the GDPR (standard contractual clauses). We do not sell or share your data.

Cookies and visit counter

To count visits we use GoatCounter, a privacy-friendly counter: it sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser, builds no profiles and does not store your IP address, your full browser signature or any identifier. It keeps only aggregate numbers (page, hour or day, browser, country, screen width) on servers in the European Union and shares nothing with third parties; see GoatCounter's privacy policy. The visit counter uses no cookies; the advertising described below does.

Affiliate links

Some links are affiliate links and are marked as such: if you buy through them we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. Our site sets no cookie for these links. If you click one, you go to the partner's website, which may use its own cookies, under its own privacy policy, to record that you came from us. We receive only aggregate reports (clicks, sales, commissions), never your name or contact details. Partners never decide what we publish.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

This site shows ads served by Google AdSense. Google and the advertising partners it works with use cookies and similar technologies (such as advertising identifiers and your browser's local storage) to show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure results, prevent fraud and, only if you allow it, personalise ads based on your visits to this and other websites. For these ads Google is an independent controller of the data it collects.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message appears on your first visit. It is Google's own certified consent management platform (Google “Privacy & messaging”, certified under the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework): advertising cookies and identifiers are used only with your consent, and you can change or withdraw your choice at any time from the privacy and cookie settings link that the message leaves on the page. If you say no, you may still see ads that are not personalised. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and the ePrivacy rules on cookies).

How Google uses information from sites that show its ads: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can turn off personalised ads from Google at any time in Google's ad settings. Google may process data outside the EU with the safeguards required by the GDPR.

How long

Alert data is kept until your travel dates have passed, and then deleted within 60 days, unless you ask us to delete it earlier. Contact and business requests are kept for up to 12 months after our last exchange.

Your rights

You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability and objection (Articles 15–22 GDPR) and you can complain to the Italian data protection authority (garanteprivacy.it) or the authority in your country.
