Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Capitalnorvento ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit or interact with our website and any related services. We respect your privacy and are committed to handling your personal information responsibly, in line with applicable data-protection laws including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), and other regional privacy frameworks where they apply to our operations.

Information We Collect

Like most websites, Capitalnorvento receives basic technical information from your browser whenever you load a page: an Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, operating system, language preference, the URL you requested, the URL you came from (if any), and the date and time of your request. We use this information to deliver pages, secure the service, and produce anonymous traffic metrics.

When you fill in a form on Capitalnorvento — newsletter signup, contact form, advertise inquiry, unsubscribe page, or any other interactive surface — we collect the information you choose to enter. That typically includes your email address, your message text, and any optional fields you complete. We do not require you to register an account to read the site.

How We Use Your Information

Capitalnorvento processes the information described above for clearly limited purposes: to deliver the content you request, to fulfill subscriptions or inquiries you initiate, to keep the service secure and operational, to understand aggregate site usage so we can make editorial decisions, and to meet legal or regulatory requirements where they apply. We do not engage in profile-based advertising sales of personal data.

Our lawful bases for processing personal data, where the GDPR applies, are consent (newsletter signups, optional analytics), legitimate interests (operating and securing the site, producing aggregated readership data), contractual performance (delivering the newsletter you signed up for), and legal obligation (record-keeping required by law). Where we rely on consent you may revoke it at any time and where we rely on legitimate interests you may object at any time.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files that your browser stores when you visit a website. Capitalnorvento uses both essential cookies (which the site needs to function) and, with your consent in jurisdictions where consent is required, optional cookies for analytics and advertising. You may decline or delete cookies at any time, although doing so may disable some features. We honor browser-level signals such as Global Privacy Control.

Third-Party Service Providers

To operate Capitalnorvento we use third-party processors for hosting, content delivery, transactional and bulk email, and web analytics. These processors only handle the data we send them and only for the purposes we direct. We do not transfer your personal information to advertisers, data brokers, or anyone else outside the limited list of operational vendors described in this policy.

Advertising

We may display advertising on Capitalnorvento sold programmatically through Google AdSense or another reputable advertising network. These networks use cookies to measure ad delivery and (where consent is granted) to personalize the ads shown. You can disable personalized advertising in your Google account at https://www.google.com/settings/ads and refuse non-essential cookies through our cookie banner.

Data Retention

Capitalnorvento's data-retention practices follow the principle of proportionality. We keep newsletter contacts only while the subscription is active (plus a suppression record after unsubscribe); we keep contact-form messages for up to two years; we keep server logs for up to 90 days; and we delete anything beyond those windows unless we have a specific legal reason to keep it longer.

Your Privacy Rights

Residents of California and the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and certain other jurisdictions have specific rights with respect to their personal information. These typically include rights of access, rectification, deletion, restriction, portability, objection, opt-out of sale or sharing, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. We respond to verified requests within the timeframes required by the applicable law.

Children's Privacy

Our service is intended for adult readers. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 16, and we will delete any such information we discover. Parents and guardians who believe a child has submitted information to Capitalnorvento are encouraged to contact us so we can remove it promptly.

International Data Transfers

Because Capitalnorvento operates online and uses cloud-based vendors, your personal information may be processed in countries outside the country in which you reside, including the United States. Where personal data is transferred from the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom to a country that does not have an adequacy decision, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent safeguards to protect the data.

Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Among other things, the site is served over HTTPS, internal access is restricted to authorized staff, our vendors are vetted and contractually obligated to use appropriate security controls, and we maintain procedures for responding to suspected incidents.

Changes to This Policy and How to Reach Us

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page reflects the most recent revision. For significant changes we will provide additional notice (such as a banner on the site or a note in the newsletter). Privacy-related questions or requests should be sent through the Contact form linked in the footer.
