Privacy

Last updated: 28 October 2026

This privacy notice applies to this personal portfolio website operated by Francesco Anania (Data Controller), including its photography, career, and gallery pages.

Hosting and technical logs

This website is hosted by Aruba S.p.A. (with infrastructure located in the European Union). When your browser requests a page or image, the hosting servers automatically process standard technical access logs—such as your IP address, browser details, requested URLs, and date and time of the request—on the basis of legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) to deliver the website reliably and ensure network security. These logs are retained by the hosting provider only for the period strictly necessary for operational security and legal compliance.

Browser storage

The site stores your theme preference in your browser's local storage and uses session storage for a navigation animation. These are not cookies, and you can remove them through your browser settings. The site does not use analytics, tracking, or advertising cookies.

External services and links

The site loads Material Symbols from Google Fonts. When your browser requests those files, Google may receive technical information such as your IP address. Links to external websites, including Instagram, lead to services governed by their own privacy policies.

Photography and takedown requests

Photographs displayed on this website are taken for artistic and documentary purposes in public spaces, focusing on travel, architecture, and everyday scenes rather than identifiable individuals. If you recognize yourself in any photograph published on this website and wish to exercise your right to object or request its removal (Notice and Takedown / Articles 17 and 21 GDPR), please contact me with a link or description of the image and I will promptly remove it.

Contact and your rights

For any questions about this notice, to exercise your data protection rights under the GDPR, or to submit a photograph takedown request, you can reach me via email or through my Instagram profile.
