It may be used for the purposes of: legal proceedings (including prospective legal proceedings); obtaining legal advice; establishing, exercising or defending legal rights; compliance with any legal obligation to which the firm is subject; to maintain the security of the firm and its personnel; the prevention and detection of crime or fraud; and compliance with any request from regulatory authorities or other relevant public authorities or agencies.

In accordance with Section 7 of the Italian Legislative Decree No 196 of 30 June 2003 (“Personal Data Protection Code”) we inform you that you have the right to obtain confirmation from MDM Studio Legale as to whether or not your personal data exists, regardless of such data already being recorded, and the communication of such data in intelligible form.
