Privacy

In compliance with the obligations set forth by EU legislation (European Data Protection Regulation No. 679/2016) and national legislation (Legislative Decree No. 196 of 30 June 2003, Personal Data Protection Code including subsequent amendments)

 

Dear user,

We inform you that, pursuant to Articles 13 and 14 of EU Regulation 679/2016 on personal data protection (the “GDPR”), the information and data collected by and/or communicated to Società Autostrada Ligure Toscana p.A. (hereinafter also referred to as the “Company” and/or the “Data Controller”) will be processed in accordance with the aforementioned GDPR and Legislative Decree 196/2003 (Privacy Code), as most recently amended.

This Privacy Statement is intended for all users who interact with the Company, whether directly or through its website and/or the Complaints Platform and/or the Platform for refunds relating to roadworks and/or traffic jams (hereinafter the “Refund Platform”) and concerns all data processed as independent Data Controller. For information regarding the data processed by the Company in its capacity as Joint Holder of the Refund Platform, please refer to the specific Privacy Statement published on the aforementioned Refund Platform.

 

1. Types of data collected

The Company may collect certain personal data including (but not limited to) name, surname, date of birth, address, gender, nationality, e-mail address, motorway journey data, and other data (hereinafter referred to as “Personal Data”) that may be necessary for the management of the motorway service and other services generally provided through the Company’s website and/or Complaints Platform and/or Refund Platform (hereinafter referred to as the “Services”). This may also include photographic images of vehicle number plates (captured by cameras located at toll stations), relevant for the toll payment due and/or in cases of anomalies detected in toll station access lanes.

Please note that the images taken by the cameras (if any) do not permit the identification of the persons on board the vehicles in any way.

Please be advised that there are cameras (hereinafter referred to as the “Cameras”) installed along the motorway stretch we manage. These cameras do not allow for the identification of the vehicles’ licence plates or occupants, except in those cases where we need to handle an accident or investigate on a behaviour connected to an administrative or criminal offence or irregularity. The CCTV systems are useful to prevent and detect any unlawful and/or irregular behaviour, manage traffic flow and provide relevant information to motorway users, and oversee motorway operations.

Moreover, the Company wishes to inform you that, in order to provide quality Services and carry out all relevant assessments in case of complaints, and/or provide traffic and toll refund process information, in full compliance with the Transport Regulation Authority’s (ART) Resolution 132/2024, as amended by the ART Resolution 211/2025 (hereinafter referred to jointly as the “ART Resolutions”), and this Privacy Policy, it will record all phone calls to the users call centre.

The company also provides users a live chat with a physical operator to address their queries. This chat and the personal data it contains will be handled in full compliance with the GDPR and the Privacy Code. Any data provided through such recordings and/or in the live chat falls into the Personal Data category, as specified above.

Personal Data may be submitted voluntarily by the user while browsing the Company’s website and/or the Complaints Platform and/or the Refund Platform, or may also be collected during use of the Services if conditions exist that necessitate their collection (e.g., correct toll allocation, complaints, accidents, etc.).

The Company’s cookie and browsing data policies can be found at the following link: https://www.salt.it/en/cookies/.

The user is responsible for the accuracy and truthfulness of Personal Data, including that of third parties, provided through the website and/or the Complaints Platform and/or the Refund Platform or other means made available by the Company, relieving the Data Controller from any liability arising from inaccuracies in the data provided.

 

2. Purpose of processing

The processing of Personal Data collected – including all recordings of user phone calls to the call centre provided by the Company and the images captured by cameras – is intended for the proper management of the Services, with specific reference to the obligations arising from the user’s use of the Services and related to the functions carried out by the Company in an institutional capacity.
