Personal Data Collection 

Italy Powered collects personal data while creating your Italy Powered account, and while you are using Italy Powered products and services. When you create an Italy Powered account, we remind you that it is important that you remember your password, question and response, and that you keep this information secret. This information determines your right to use the account. Do not share this information with anyone, including Italy Powered. For example, when you open an account allowing you to access certain services, we ask you to give us certain data (name, e-mail address, birth date, gender, zip-post code, profession and field of work), in order to optimize your use of the Italy Powered site services. Therefore, upon entering the site for the first time, you are no longer anonymous. Certain data that we request from you are obligatory in order to access certain products and services or to participate in certain events. Italy Powered may also receive personal data about you from our business partners, who must guarantee that they are authorized to give us said information. Italy Powered is authorized to place cookies on your computer hard drive. Please see the section below entitled "Cookies" for further information. We particularly draw the attention of parents to their children's use of the internet. We recommend that parents take care to assure that their children do not fill out forms on-line, and communicate personal data without their prior knowledge and consent. 

Use of Personal Data 

Italy Powered uses these data for four purposes: 

To personalize the advertising content according to your interests
To answer your questions regarding certain products or services
