As such, this Privacy Policy has been written and uploaded to third-party platforms (“Store”), in order to allow you to understand Maserati’s policy regarding your privacy, and how your personal information will be handled when using this App. This Privacy Policy will also provide you with information so that you are able to consent to the processing of your personal data in an explicit and informed manner, where appropriate.
In general, any information and data which you provide to Maserati over the App, or which is otherwise gathered via the App by Maserati, in the context of the use of Maserati’s services (“Services”) as better defined in the Section 3 below, will be processed by Maserati in a lawful, fair and transparent manner.

CONTENTS
1. Data controller and Data Protection Officer
Maserati, as identified at the top of this Privacy Policy, is the data controller regarding all personal data processing carried out through the App.
To get in touch with Maserati’s Data Protection Officer, please contact: dpo@maserati.com.
2. Personal Data processed
When you download, install and use the App on your device, Maserati will collect and process information regarding you (as an individual), which allows you to be identified either by itself, or together with other information which has been collected.
This information may be classified as “Personal Data”, and can be collected by Maserati both when you choose to provide it (e.g., when you sign up for an account, in order to receive Maserati’s Services) or simply by analysing your behaviour on the App.
Personal Data which may be processed by Maserati through the App are as follows:
1. Data related to your Device
By selecting the “Install” option at the Store regarding the App, you authorize Maserati to set up the App on your mobile device (“Device”), as well as to access some Personal Data and other information on your Device which are needed for its successful installation (e.g., Device model, operating system version, screen resolution, network connection type, language, etc.). This information sharing is inherent to the App’s set-up and, as such, you may not object to it unless you uninstall the App from your Device.
2. Data related to your location
Once the App has been installed, during the registration and using the Service Booking feature you will be asked to consent to the App accessing your Device’s location, only when you are using it. This allows the App to provide more precise and useful Services to you, allowing you to find the dealers next to your location.
If you believe that the sharing your location is too invasive, you can always revoke the access to your position from the Device settings and simply provide a zip code or state for the Services you are interested in.
3. Name, contact details and other Personal Data
When creating an account on the App, you will be asked to provide information such as your name (first and last), date of birth, mobile number, dealer where you bought your car, e-mail address and VIN (Vehicle Identification Number).
4. SDKs and tracking technologies
SDKs (Software Development Kits) and similar technologies are information that applications can record and/or read on your Device. In general, these technologies allow an analysis of the use of an application, with the goal to avoid malfunctions and improve users’ experience.
Maserati uses SDKs and similar technologies provided by third parties acting, as the case may be, as independent data controllers from Maserati (using the data they collect for their own purposes and under terms defined by them) or as data processors for Maserati (processing personal data on Maserati’s behalf).
