Privacy policy and Legal Note


Company Data:


Our policy and processing personal data:

Anyone has the right to protect the personal data about them.
  1. Gruden USA Inc. respects its users' rights to be informed regarding the collection and other processing operations of their personal data.
  2. In the processing of the data that could identify you as a person, we try to respect the principle of strict necessity. For this reason we have configured http://www.archimedegruden.us/ so that the use of your personal data is reduced to a minimum and so as to exclude the processing of your data when the aims pursued in the individual cases can be met using anonymous data or by other means, which allow the interested party to be identified only in the event of necessity or upon request from the authorities or police forces (such as, for example, for data relative to traffic and your use of the website or your IP address).
  3. Decisions regarding the aims, processing methods of your personal data and tools used, including the security profile, are made by Gruden USA Inc., the data controller of the personal data regarding the users of http://www.archimedegruden.us/
  4. This Privacy Policy provides all information useful for understanding how we collect and use the information that identifies the users of http://www.archimedegruden.us/. For any other information on our Privacy Policy you can write to the following email address archimedegruden@archimedegruden.com or to Gruden USA Inc., at our headquarters in 51 Newark Street Suite 302 - 07030 (New Jersey) - United States.
  5. Gruden USA Inc. is the controller of the personal data of the users of http://www.archimedegruden.us/; hence it independently decides on the aims and processing methods, including the security profile.
  6. For strictly organisational and functional requirements, we have appointed some supervisors of the personal data of the users of http://www.archimedegruden.us/, for aims strictly connected and associated with the provision of services on http://www.archimedegruden.us/, including product sales.
  7. These supervisors have been chosen by Gruden USA Inc. as they have proven that they have the experience, skills and reliability and can provide a suitable guarantee of full respect for the provisions in force relating to data processing, including the data security profile. The supervisors process the personal data of the users of http://www.archimedegruden.us/ according to the instructions given by Gruden USA Inc.. We periodically check that the supervisors have performed their duties accurately and continue to provide suitable guarantees of full respect of the provisions relating to personal data protection.

How we use the personal data and for what purposes:

Your personal data is collected and processed by Gruden USA Inc. for purposes strictly connected with the use of the website, its services and the purchase of products through the website. Your personal data can also be used in other processing operations, but which must be compatible with such purposes, in particular:
  1. As part of the registration processes on the website, we collect your personal data (e.g. your identification data, user ID and password, email address) through the relative registration form to provide the services for accessing the restricted access areas of http://www.archimedegruden.us/ and for sending the Newsletters.
  2. For customer services we collect your personal data for purposes connected with providing information to you on the services of http://www.archimedegruden.us/ and purchasing products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/
  3. During the purchase of products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ we collect your personal details using the order form for sales of products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/.

Your personal data is processed mainly in electronic format and in some cases also in paper format, such as, for example, when the processing of your data is necessary to prevent fraud on http://www.archimedegruden.us/. Your data will be kept in the form that allows your identification for the amount of time strictly necessary for the purposes for which the data was collected and subsequently processed and, however, within legal limits. To guarantee that your personal data is always exact and updated, relevant and complete, please inform us of any changes that arise by writing to archimedegruden@archimedegruden.com. Your personal data will not be notified to third parties for purposes not permitted by law or without your express consent. Your personal data may only be notified to third parties when it is necessary for finalising the agreement, for making electronic remote payments, by credit/debit card, should you decide to purchase a product on http://www.archimedegruden.us/. Your data may also be notified to police forces or judicial authorities, in accordance with the law and upon formal request from such parties, for example, as part of the fraud prevention services of http://www.archimedegruden.us/. Gruden USA Inc. processes the personal details of its users for purposes strictly connected with the provision of services and the finalisation of sales agreements of products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ and, with your consent, to notify you of direct marketing commercial initiatives, also by email, strictly connected with the activities and services of the website.It may arise that Gruden USA Inc. needs to process the personal data of third parties sent straight from its users to Gruden USA Inc., for example if the user has bought a product to send to a friend or when the person paying for the product is different from the person to whom the product needs to be sent. Make sure you have the consent of the person to whom the data refers before notifying it to Gruden USA Inc. and that you inform them of this Privacy Policy as you will be the person solely responsible for notifying the data regarding third parties, without them having expressed their consent for incorrect use or against the law.

What happens if you do not notify your personal data:

  1. The notification of your personal data to Gruden USA Inc. and, in particular, your identification and postal details, your email address, your credit/debit card details and bank details and telephone number, is necessary for the finalisation of the product purchase agreement or the provision of other services offered on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ upon your request or when your data is necessary for fulfilling the obligations deriving from the law or regulations.
  2. If you refuse to notify any of your data to Gruden USA Inc. required for these purposes, this could make it impossible for Gruden USA Inc. to implement the product purchase agreement or to provide the other services available on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ or to fulfil the legal or regulatory obligations correctly. Failure to communicate your data may constitute a legitimate and justified reason for Gruden USA Inc. not to implement the purchase agreement of products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ or the provision of services through http://www.archimedegruden.us/.
  3. Depending on each individual case, where necessary, we will duly inform you of the compulsory or optional nature of the communication of your personal data to Gruden USA Inc.. We will highlight the compulsory or optional nature of the communication of your data, placing an asterisk on compulsory data, i.e. data that is strictly necessary for the provision of services and for purchasing products on http://www.archimedegruden.us/. Please remember that failure to communicate optional personal data will not lead to any obligation or disadvantage.

Parties to whom we communicate your personal data:

  1. The personal data may be made available to third party companies who implement, on behalf of Gruden USA Inc. specific services, as data processing controllers, or notified to other addressees of the data collected by Gruden USA Inc., who process the data independently in order to implement the product purchase agreement on http://www.archimedegruden.us/ (such as, for example: PayPal) and only when such aims are not incompatible with the purposes for which your data was collected and subsequently processed and, however, in conformity with the law.
  2. The data will not be notified, sold, or transferred, in any way, to other third parties, without the users being informed in advance and, with their consent, when required by law.
