Privacy notice
This is a translation; the Italian version prevails.
How we handle the data you enter in DataSpace Italia's forms and the searches you run on the site. Version of 28 September 2026.
Who the data controller is
The data controller is Lorenzo Iacchini, for the DataSpace Italia project, based in Fano (PU), Italy. For any question about your data write to info@dataspaceitalia.com.
No data protection officer (DPO) has been appointed, as the law does not require one for this activity.
What data we process
- Survey request: your full name, the area or address to check, the company if you provide one, your email, the notes you write, and the coordinates of the last search you ran on the site.
- Surveyor application: first name, last name, professional register, area you work in, indicative fee and email.
- Property report: property type, surface area, approximate area and email.
- Map searches: the address or coordinates you search for and the calculated result. These are not linked to your identity.
We do not log your IP address together with the forms, we do not use profiling cookies or third-party analytics tools, and the site's fonts are hosted on our own server.
Why we process it
| Purpose | Legal basis |
|---|---|
| Responding to your request: arranging the survey, assessing the application, assessing the reported property | Pre-contractual measures requested by you (Art. 6.1.b GDPR) |
| Putting the reported property forward to interested funds and investors: we show type, size and area, not your name or contact details, which are passed on only with your consent and after a non-disclosure agreement | Pre-contractual measures requested by you (Art. 6.1.b GDPR) |
| Calculating the rating of a point searched on the map | Performance of the requested service (Art. 6.1.b) |
| Protecting the site from abuse, for example by limiting repeated submissions | Legitimate interest of the controller (Art. 6.1.f) |
Your data is not used to send you advertising or marketing communications and is not shared with anyone else. Funds and investors only receive the characteristics of the reported property, as described above.
If you do not provide it
The required fields are needed so we can contact you back: without them, we cannot follow up on your request. The map search works without asking for any personal data.
Who receives it
Your data is seen by DataSpace Italia and, only to make the site and the service work, by these providers, who process it on our behalf as processors (Art. 28 GDPR):
- AimXpert di Marco Eugenio Monaco (Vortis Digital), Rimini, Italy: development and technical management of the site and the service.
- DigitalOcean LLC: server hosted in the Amsterdam (Netherlands) data centre, where the site and the database run.
- Brevo (Sendinblue SAS), France: sends the email that delivers your request to DataSpace Italia.
- Geocoding service: when you search for an address, the text you searched is passed to the service that converts it into coordinates, Geoapify GmbH (Germany, European Union). It receives only the address, not your other data.
- Fixed-network coverage: our server asks AGCOM (the Italian Communications Authority) for the data around the searched point. It receives only the coordinates, not your data.
DigitalOcean is headquartered in the United States: your data remains on servers in the European Union, and any transfer is covered by the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses.
For how long
- Survey requests and property reports: 12 months from submission.
- Surveyor applications: 24 months from submission, unless a collaboration starts in the meantime.
- Map search results: 48 hours.
Data is deleted automatically every night once these periods expire. If a job arises from your request, the related documents follow the retention periods required by law.
Your rights
You can ask at any time to see your data, correct it, delete it, restrict its use, receive it in a machine-readable format, or object to its processing (Articles 15 to 22 of the GDPR). Just write to info@dataspaceitalia.com. If you believe your data is being processed incorrectly, you can complain to the Italian data protection authority, the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali (garanteprivacy.it).
How we protect it
The site only travels over an encrypted connection (HTTPS), the database is not reachable from the internet, and access to the data is limited to those who manage the service.
