I. Mandatory or Optional Provision of Data
Technical data necessary for website delivery and security may be processed automatically. Contact or inquiry data are necessary to respond to a request. Optional information submitted in messages, feedback, roaster or partner material is provided voluntarily; if some information is missing, Bean Luxe may be unable to evaluate or respond fully.
The contact form currently asks for name, email, company or organization where relevant, reason for contact, message content and privacy confirmation. Anti-spam verification is required to complete submission.
J. Data Subject Rights
Users may exercise their rights under the GDPR, where applicable, including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, objection, portability, withdrawal of consent and the right to lodge a complaint with the Italian Data Protection Authority.
Requests can be sent to beanluxesrl@pec.it. Users may also contact the Italian Data Protection Authority through its official website.
K. Automated Decision-Making and Profiling
The website does not currently perform automated decision-making with legal or similarly significant effects. Compass recommendations or previews, where available, are informational product guidance only and do not produce legal or similarly significant effects.
Marketing profiling will not be used unless explicitly introduced with appropriate notice and consent where required.
Vercel Web Analytics is used for aggregate website usage measurement, content improvement and performance monitoring. It is not used for advertising profiling or remarketing.
The contact form also uses an anti-spam/security verification service to protect the website from automated misuse. This protection is not used for advertising profiling.
L. Children
This website and Bean Luxe professional services are not specifically directed to children. Users who are minors should not submit personal data without appropriate parental or guardian involvement where required by law.
