LAWFULNESS OF PROCESSING

The lawfulness of processing your personal data, provided when reporting alleged irregularities or unlawful actions that came to your attention in the context of the working relationship, in compliance with our “Policy for the Management of Whistleblowing Reports”, is – in relation to Interpump Group S.p.A. which has adopted an Organization and Management Model – founded on the legal obligation arising pursuant to art. 6 of Decree 231/2001, as amended by Law 179/2017 on “Instructions for the protection of persons who report improper or unlawful actions that come to their attention in the course of their working activities in the public or private sector”, and on the version of the Code of Self-Regulation for listed companies approved by the Corporate Governance Committee in July 2015.

The provision of your personal data is not mandatory, but any refusal may make it impossible or extremely difficult to verify the truth of the Whistleblowing report made, if that report is not detailed, founded on precise and mutually-consistent facts, is not supported by verifiable evidence and/or does not contain all the information needed to carry out the above verification work.
