Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 May 2026

This Privacy Notice is provided pursuant to articles 13 and 14 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 ("GDPR") and Italian Legislative Decree 196/2003 as amended by Decree 101/2018 ("Privacy Code") to describe how personal data of users interacting with movisalento.it and with the services offered by Movi are processed.

1. Data Controller

The Data Controller is Movi Salento, a project run by Simone as proponent, with operating address in Tricase (LE), Italy. Contact channels: email info@movisalento.it · WhatsApp +39 375 787 6484.

A VAT number is being applied for in connection with this project; the full Controller denomination and tax identifier will be updated on this page as soon as available.

2. Nature of the service

Movi operates as a technical intermediary between users seeking a private transfer service in Salento and authorised NCC drivers who provide the service. Movi is not a transport operator, does not enter into transport contracts and is not liable for the execution of the service. Operational, tax and insurance responsibility for the transfer remains with the NCC driver who holds the authorisation.

3. Categories of data processed

3.1 Browsing data

The IT systems hosting the Site automatically acquire, in the course of their normal operation, certain data whose transmission is implicit in the use of internet protocols: IP addresses, browser type, operating system, references to pages visited, access times and visit duration. These data are used solely to obtain anonymous statistical information about the use of the Site and to verify its proper functioning.

3.2 Data provided voluntarily

  • Transfer request via WhatsApp: when you click a "Book via WhatsApp" button or a route link, a WhatsApp conversation opens with a pre-filled message. Any data you choose to share in the chat (name, phone number, route, date, time, number of passengers, preferences) is transmitted via the WhatsApp/Meta Platforms Ireland Limited infrastructure and received by the Controller to handle your request.
  • "Become a partner" form: NCC drivers interested in joining fill in a form which, on clicking "Open WhatsApp to send", builds a pre-filled message containing: full name, phone, operating area, number and type of vehicles, declaration of holding an active NCC licence, availability range, English knowledge, optional Instagram/Facebook links and free-text message. The message is opened in WhatsApp and sent by the user to the Controller's number.
  • "Notify me at app launch" form: the user voluntarily provides their email address to be notified when the Movi app is released. The data is transmitted via WhatsApp as well.
  • Direct email: data communicated in emails sent spontaneously to info@movisalento.it.
