We recognise that your privacy is important. This page outlines the types of personal information Chef Giampaolo Maffini and chefmaffini.com receive and collect when you use this website, and the steps taken to safeguard that information. We hope this helps you make an informed decision about sharing personal information with us.
Chef Giampaolo Maffini strives to maintain the highest standards of decency, fairness and integrity in all operations. We are dedicated to protecting the privacy of our customers, consultancy clients and online visitors.
Personal Information
chefmaffini.com collects personally identifiable information from visitors to our website only on a voluntary basis. Personal information collected on a voluntary basis may include name, postal address, email address, company name and telephone number.
This information is collected if you request information from us, enquire about consulting services, or sign up to join our email list. The information collected is used to respond to enquiries, notify you of updates, and improve the content of our website.
Once information is reviewed, it is discarded or stored in our files. If we make material changes in the collection of personally identifiable information, we will inform you by placing a notice on our site. Personal information received from any visitor is used only for internal purposes and is not sold or provided to third parties.
Use of Cookies and Web Beacons
We may use cookies to help personalise your online experience. Cookies are identifiers transferred to your computer's hard drive through your web browser so our systems can recognise your browser. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying your web browser, or through the consent banner shown when you first visit this site. If you choose to decline non-essential cookies, you may not be able to fully experience some interactive features of the site.
A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor visitor journeys around a website. They are also referred to as web bugs and are commonly used by sites that hire third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used alongside cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content of a website.
We may serve third-party advertisements that use cookies and web beacons to measure how many times an advertisement has been seen. No personally identifiable information you give us is provided to them for cookie or web beacon use, so they cannot personally identify you through that information on our website. Some third-party advertisements may be provided by Google, which uses cookies to serve ads on this site. You may opt out of interest-based Google advertising by visiting Google's ad settings.
Browsers can be set to accept or reject cookies, or to notify you when a cookie is being sent. Privacy software can be used to override web beacons. Taking either of these actions should not cause a problem with our site, should you choose to do so.
Children's Privacy
This website is directed to adults. It is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect or use personal information from anyone under 13 years of age.
Non-Personal Information
In some cases we may collect information about you that is not personally identifiable. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyse trends, administer the site, track visitor movement around the site, and gather demographic information about our audience as a whole. This information is used solely for internal review and is not shared with other organisations for commercial purposes.
Release of Information
If chefmaffini.com or the consulting practice is sold or restructured, the information we have obtained from you through your voluntary participation on our site may transfer to the new owner as part of that transition, so that the service being provided to you may continue. In that event, we will make reasonable efforts to ensure that any successor honours the terms of this policy and any opt-out requests you have made.
How You Can Correct or Remove Information
This privacy policy is our statement of commitment to protect your personal information. If you have submitted personal information through this website and would like it deleted, updated or corrected, please contact us at chef@chefmaffini.com or use our Contact page.
