Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Scalini Group ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses and protects the personal information you provide when you contact us, request a check, subscribe to our updates, or otherwise use this website. We are a UK-based, independent buyer-side property advisory serving foreign buyers in Italy.

Who we are

Scalini Group is the data controller for the information you share with us. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, you can reach us using the contact details on our website.

Information we collect

• Information you give us — your name, email, country, phone or WhatsApp number, the property link, area, budget, intended use, and any messages or documents you send us.
• Information collected automatically — basic technical data such as device type, browser, and pages visited, gathered through standard analytics to help us improve the site.

How we use your information

• To respond to your enquiry and tell you which level of check is most suitable.
• To carry out the service you have requested, including research and preparing your report.
• To coordinate, where you ask us to, with independent local professionals.
• To send you updates you have subscribed to (you can unsubscribe at any time).
• To meet our legal and accounting obligations.

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only where necessary to provide our service — for example with independent professionals you have asked us to involve, or with trusted service providers (such as email or hosting providers) who process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements. We may disclose information where required by law.

Where we are independent

We do not receive commission, referral fees or payment from estate agents or sellers. Your information is used to act on your behalf as the buyer, never to market a property to you on someone else's behalf.

How long we keep it

We keep your information for as long as needed to provide the service and to meet legal, tax and accounting requirements, after which it is securely deleted or anonymised.

Your rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information, and to object to certain processing or request portability. To exercise any of these rights, contact us and we will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

International transfers

Because we work across the UK, Italy and with clients abroad, your information may be processed in countries outside your own. Where it is, we take steps to ensure it remains protected to an appropriate standard.

Cookies

This site may use essential and analytics cookies to function and to help us understand how it is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings.
