3. How We Use Personal Data and for What Purposes 
Your personal data is collected and processed by MC SRL for purposes which are strictly connected to the use of the web site, its services and to the purchase of products on the web site. However, your personal data may also be used for other processing operations within the limits of such purposes. 
In particular, your personal data shall be processed for the following purposes:

• when you register with our website we collect your personal data (for example, your personal details, password, e-mail address, gender, favourite designer) through the registration form (My Account) and we process the data in order to provide you with services, requested by you, in reserved access areas of mcsrlshop.com and in order to send you our Newsletter, when specifically requested;

• when you execute purchasing procedures for products sold on ismersteel.net, we collect and process your personal data (such as, for example, personal details, e-mail address, address, credit card numbers, bank code, tax code and telephone number) on your order form only for the purpose of selling the products ordered by you;
• when you require technical assistance, we collect your personal data in order to provide you with information on net-surfing, browser compatibility and viewing or loading thecorner.com web pages;
• when creating your Wish List, we process your personal data in order to customize our services for the purchase of products on ismersteel.net, and when specifically requested we process your data to render your Wish List searchable for other registered My Account users within your same country;
• Your personal data is mostly processed by electronic means and in some circumstances by paper-based means, such as when the processing of your personal data is required for preventing fraud on thecorner.com. Your personal data shall be stored in a way which allows mc srl  to identify you for the period necessary for the purposes for which the data was collected and subsequently processed and, in any case, in accordance with applicable law. 

Please report any modification of your personal data to privacy@mcsrlshop.com in order to ensure that your personal data is always accurate and up-to-date, relevant and complete. 
Your personal data shall not be disclosed to third parties for purposes which are not permitted by law or without your explicit consent.
Your personal data may only be disclosed to third parties when it is necessary for processing an order. For example, your personal data is disclosed to Paypal. or Globalcollect for the performance of electronic distance payment services when you purchase a product on thecorner.com using a credit/debit card. Moreover, your data may be disclosed to the police or to judicial authorities, according to law and upon a formal request by such entities, for example in the event MC SRL needs to prevent fraud on thecorner.com (anti-fraud services). Data processors will also have access to your personal data as stated in section 2 for the specific purposes mentioned therein. In all the above circumstances, your consent for data processing is not required. 
Your personal data will not be transferred abroad to non-EU countries that do not ensure an adequate level of protection of individuals. Should this be necessary in order to supply services or to execute a contract with MC SRL for the purchase of products, your personal data to such non-EU countries shall be transferred only after the execution of specific contracts between MC SRL and such entities in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 
We wish to inform you that MC SRL shall process its users' personal data for purposes that are strictly connected to the supply of services on thecorner.com, execution of contracts related to the sale and purchase of products on thecorner.com and, after receiving your consent, in order to send to you information on new commercial initiatives which are strictly connected to the web site's activities and services. 
MC SRL shall process your personal data for direct marketing purposes, including by e-mail, only after receiving your consent.
MC SRL may have access to third parties' personal data which was directly disclosed by its users to MC SRL, for example when a user bought a product to be sent to a friend, when the user paying for the product is different from the recipient of such product, or when a user wishes to recommend to a friend a service of thecorner.com or the sale of a particular product. 
In all of the above cases, please make sure you receive the consent of such individuals before disclosing their personal data to MC SRL and make sure you inform them about this Privacy Policy; you will be the only person liable in connection with the disclosure of information and data regarding third parties if they have not provided you with their express consent for it and for any improper and unlawful use of that information. We inform you that the consent of such third party individuals is not required if their personal data has been disclosed to MC SRL for the execution of a sale and purchase contract with IMC SRL to their exclusive benefit.
In any event, MC SRL shall fulfil any obligation to inform third parties required by law and, when necessary, shall request their express consent upon registering in its archives the personal information of the user indicated.

4. What Happens if You Do Not Disclose Your Personal Data to MC SRL
Granting your personal data to MC SRL (in particular, your personal details, your e-mail address, your address, your credit/debit card numbers and bank code, and your telephone number) is necessary for the processing of your order for the purchase of products on thecorner.com, for supplying other services provided on the web site upon your request, or when your personal information is needed to fulfil obligations required by law or regulations. 
The refusal to provide MC SRL  with some of your personal data necessary for performing the above purposes may consequently prevent MC SRL from processing your order for the purchase of products sold on thecorner.com or from supplying other services provided on thecorner.com, such as Customer Care services, sending the Newsletter, using the Wish List, recommending a product to a friend or fulfilling obligations required by law and other regulations. Therefore failing to provide data may constitute, in some cases, a legitimate and justified reason for MC SRL's refusal to process your order for the purchase of products sold on thecorner.com or to provide thecorner.com's services.
Disclosure of further personal data to MC SRL, other than that required for fulfilling legal or contractual obligations or for providing the services required, is, on the contrary, optional and does not have any effect on the use of the web site and of its services or on the purchase of products on thecorner.com (as for example, in the event that we ask you the name of your favourite designer).
In some circumstances and if required, from time to time we will duly inform you if the personal data you are disclosing to MC SRL is compulsory or optional. We will point out to you whether the disclosure of your data is compulsory or optional by marking with an appropriate symbol (*) the information that is compulsory or data which is needed for providing the required services on ismersteel.net and for the purchase of products on tismersteel.net. Failing to provide optional personal data will not imply any obligation or disadvantage to our users.

5. To Whom Your Personal Data Will Be Disclosed
Personal data will be disclosed to third party companies that provide, on behalf of MC SRL, specific services as Data Processors or to other recipients of personal data collected by IMC SRL that autonomously process your personal data only for the performance of a contract for purchasing products on thecorner.com (such as, for example, PAYPAL.) and only when such purpose does not exceed the purposes for which your personal data was collected and subsequently processed and, in any case, according to applicable laws and regulations. 
Personal data will not be disclosed to third parties or disseminated or transferred without informing our users of such disclosure/dissemination/transfer and without their consent and, in any case, in accordance with the law.
