Dear User,

Where you have provided your consent, your personal data will be used to enable us to send you, including by e-mail, communications relating to initiatives and conferences organized by Fondazione Pirelli.

Furthermore, subject to your consent, our marketing e-mails will contain small invisible images called “tracking pixels” (“Tracking Pixels”), which allow us to collect information regarding your interaction with the communication. Tracking Pixels enable us to determine, for example, whether an e-mail has been opened, the date and time it was viewed, the IP address used and the type of device. You may withdraw your consent at any time, including solely with respect to Tracking Pixels while continuing to receive our e-mails, by using the link at the bottom of each e-mail or by writing to info@fondazionepirelli.org. Withdrawal of consent shall not affect processing already carried out.
