The Site ButterflyZ.it is a simple amateur information website portal, no computer systems are used for the collection, storage, processing, treatment and manipulation of user data, the data that the user therefore voluntarily provides by means of the contact form will be received by the owner in the form of email and therefore treated as a simple electronic epistolary communication of the email type, ditto for any telephone numbers provided, they will be treated as such and used with a landline or mobile phone.

The provision of required personal data, i.e. the minimum indispensable for communication between the holder and the user, is provided voluntarily by the user and there is no obligation to do so. Any refusal to provide such data has no consequence with regard to the possibility of freely visiting our site and reading information, while the user obviously has no way of communicating with the owner by not providing it.

9. Disclosure of data to third parties

The data will never be unjustifiably disclosed to other parties, nor will it be disseminated. The data will not be sold to third parties.
However, users' personal data will be justifiably disclosed to third parties in the following cases.
