The data marked as mandatory in the forms is needed to give you what you ask for: without it I cannot confirm the booking, issue the gift card or assess the application. Everything else, consents included, is optional and does not change the service. No decision concerning you is made by solely automated means.
Who processes the data with me
To run bookings, payments, the website and messages I rely on a few suppliers. They process data on my behalf, under a contract that obliges them to protect it (Art. 28 GDPR), or as independent controllers for their own services.

Internal notifications of new requests and applications sent via Telegram contain only the type of request, a reference number and, for applications, whether a CV is attached: no name, contact details or content of the request.
Data outside the European Union
- Some suppliers are based or have servers in the United States: the transfer is based on the European Commission's adequacy decision of 10 July 2023 (EU-US Data Privacy Framework) and, if a supplier does not participate in it, on the standard contractual clauses approved by the Commission.
- The booking management system processes data in the Republic of San Marino, with standard contractual clauses.

Your rights
- Access: know what data I hold and receive a copy (Art. 15 GDPR).
- Rectification: correct or complete it (Art. 16).
- Erasure: have it deleted, unless I am required by law to keep it (Art. 17).
- Restriction: have its use suspended (Art. 18).
- Portability: receive it in a readable format or have it transferred to another controller (Art. 20).

Write to privacy@nonnaemilia.it or ask in the restaurant. I reply within one month; if the request is complex I will let you know and may take up to two more months (Art. 12 GDPR). It is free of charge.
Minors
The website, the forms and the Tessera del Nipote are not intended for children under 14: under 14, consent is given by a parent (Art. 2-quinquies of the Italian Privacy Code). You must be at least 16 to apply for a job. If I find data of a minor collected without consent, I delete it.
How I protect the data
- The website uses encrypted connections only (HTTPS).
- The booking and payment forms belong to specialised suppliers: card details never pass through the website.
- Only authorised staff, with personal credentials, can access my management system and the email.
- If a data breach occurs that puts you at risk, I notify the Italian Data Protection Authority within 72 hours and, where necessary, you as well (Arts. 33 and 34 GDPR).
Changes to this notice
If something important changes (new suppliers, new purposes), I update this page and the date at the top; if your new consent is needed, I will ask you for it. This version replaces the privacy notice of 6 February 2025.
