Privacy and cookies

Who handles your data on this site, which cookies we use and on what legal basis, how long we keep data and how to exercise your rights.

In short

  • No sign-ups, forms, newsletters or ads.
  • Without your consent we only use technical tools the site needs to work.
  • If you consent, we use Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics for statistics and, only if you choose so, Google marketing cookies.
  • You can change your mind at any time from the Cookie preferences link at the bottom of every page.

Data controller

The data controller is Dario Valastro, reachable at info@rankwit.ai. Write to the same address with any question about this policy or to exercise your rights.

What data we process and why

Technical browsing data

The site is delivered through the network of Cloudflare, Inc., acting as data processor. To serve pages and protect the site from abuse, the servers log technical request data: IP address, date and time, requested page, browser and operating system. We do not use it to identify you.

  • Legal basis: legitimate interest in running the site securely (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Retention: only as long as strictly necessary, under the provider's policies.

If you consent to statistics, the site loads Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Limited). They collect data about how the site is used: pages viewed, visit length, referrer, device and browser type, approximate city-level location, through random identifiers stored in cookies. We use them to understand which pages help and which need work. We only see aggregate data.

  • Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code).
  • Retention: no longer than 14 months.

If you also consent to marketing, Google tags may use advertising cookies to measure campaigns (for example, whether a visit came from an ad). This site shows no ads.

  • Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and Art. 122 of the Italian Privacy Code).
  • Retention: as per the cookie lifetimes below.

Emails you send us

If you write to us, we use your address and message only to reply.

  • Legal basis: legitimate interest in answering requests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
  • Retention: as long as needed to handle the request and no longer than 24 months.

We do no profiling of our own and no automated decision-making.

NEXT_LOCALE this site remembers the language you picked 12 months technical

Technical cookies need no consent. The others are set only after you accept them: until then Google Tag Manager is not even loaded. The exact names of Google's cookies can vary with the active tags; we update this table when they change.

How you choose

On your first visit a banner asks what to allow. Reject all and Accept all carry the same weight, and closing the banner with × counts as rejecting. Choose what to allow lets you decide category by category. We remember your choice for 6 months, then ask again. You can change it or withdraw consent at any time from the Cookie preferences link at the bottom of the page, or delete cookies in your browser settings.

Transfers outside the European Union

Google and Cloudflare are groups headquartered in the United States. Some data may be processed outside the EU: these transfers rely on the European Commission's adequacy decision on the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework (10 July 2023), which both companies have joined, and on standard contractual clauses.

What we don't load from third parties

Fonts and photos are served from our own domain. Maps are SVG drawings generated on our server from public-domain data (Natural Earth) and load no external services. Links to other sites (coworking spaces, public bodies, OpenStreetMap, Wikimedia Commons) take you away only if you click them, and from then on the destination site's policy applies.

Your rights

You can ask at any time for access to your data, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and object to processing based on legitimate interest (Arts. 15–22 GDPR). You can withdraw consent whenever you like, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before. Write to info@rankwit.ai: we reply within one month.

If you believe the processing breaks the rules, you can complain to the Italian Garante per la protezione dei dati personali or to the supervisory authority of the country where you live or work.

Changes

If we change tools or purposes we update this page and the date at the top. If a change affects consent, the banner will ask you again.
