Privacy notice

Who processes the data

The data controller is the person who runs EsameB1 as an independent project in Italy, named in the Italian privacy notice. You can write to us by replying to any email we send you.

What data we collect

Only if you fill in the «Notify me» form: your email, the city and exam body you choose, and the page or link you came from (to understand which channels work).

Why

To send you alerts about B1 exam dates and deadlines. The legal basis is your consent (art. 6.1.a GDPR), which you can withdraw at any time.

Who handles it for us

The site and the form are hosted by Netlify, Inc., which stores the form data on our behalf. Netlify may process data outside the EU with the safeguards required by the GDPR (standard contractual clauses). We do not sell or share your data.

Cookies and visit counter

To count visits we use GoatCounter, a privacy-friendly counter: it sets no cookies and stores nothing in your browser, builds no profiles and does not store your IP address, your full browser signature or any identifier. It keeps only aggregate numbers (page, hour or day, browser, country, screen width) on servers in the European Union and shares nothing with third parties; see GoatCounter's privacy policy. The visit counter uses no cookies; the advertising described below does.

Affiliate links

Some links are affiliate links and are marked as such: if you buy through them we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. Our site sets no cookie for these links. If you click one, you go to the partner's website, which may use its own cookies, under its own privacy policy, to record that you came from us. We receive only aggregate reports (clicks, sales, commissions), never your name or contact details. Partners never decide what we publish.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

This site shows ads served by Google AdSense. Google and the advertising partners it works with use cookies and similar technologies (such as advertising identifiers and your browser's local storage) to show ads, limit how often you see the same ad, measure results, prevent fraud and, only if you allow it, personalise ads based on your visits to this and other websites. For these ads Google is an independent controller of the data it collects.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message appears on your first visit. It is Google's own certified consent management platform (Google “Privacy & messaging”, certified under the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework): advertising cookies and identifiers are used only with your consent, and you can change or withdraw your choice at any time from the privacy and cookie settings link that the message leaves on the page. If you say no, you may still see ads that are not personalised. The legal basis is your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR and the ePrivacy rules on cookies).

How Google uses information from sites that show its ads: policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. You can turn off personalised ads from Google at any time in Google's ad settings. Google may process data outside the EU with the safeguards required by the GDPR.

Amazon Associates Programme

We take part in the Amazon EU Associates Programme, an affiliate programme that lets sites earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.it. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Links to Amazon.it lead to book searches: prices and availability are shown only on Amazon and may change.

How long

As long as you are subscribed to the alerts. If you ask us to delete your data, we delete it.

Your rights

You can ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability and object (Articles 15-22 GDPR), and you can complain to the Italian Data Protection Authority (garanteprivacy.it).
