2. Purpose and legal basis of the processing

UniCredit S.p.A. has made available in its Application for Authorized Mobile Devices, which can be downloaded through the dedicated On-Line Stores (By way of example: App Store iOS and Google Play Android), the BANCOMAT Pay® Service, which provides the possibility to make payments at the Merchants Affiliated by BANCOMAT S.p.A..

This Service provides for the "Pay at the stores near you" function, which for the sole purpose of identifying the location of the Affiliated Merchants and enabling the Service Customer to easily locate the Exercises closest to him/her, the application can access the Geolocation feature of the Mobile Device on which the UniCredit Application is installed.

UniCredit uses the Geolocation Data of the Customers' Mobile Devices only for the purpose of locating the Stores close to the location of the Customer's Mobile Device and the Geolocation Data will in any case neither be saved nor historicized nor processed for other and/or different purposes.

The legal basis for the processing is the consent given by the Customer according to art. 6, par. 1, lett. A) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, by selecting "I AGREE" in the specific function provided in the UniCredit Application.

The User is free to decide whether to enable both the Geolocation function of his/her Mobile Device and to give his/her consent for the use of the "Pay at stores near you" function based on such Geolocation.

The User may revoke the aforementioned consent at any time either by using the function of the Operating System of the Mobile Device, or by using the specific function made available for this purpose in the UniCredit Application (Communication Hub Section > Settings > Geolocation Services).

If consent is not given, the "Pay in Stores Near You" Service will still be usable by the Customer but only through manual searches of the name of the Convenience Store.

The processing is carried out by computer and telematic tools with logics strictly related to the aforementioned purpose and, in any case, in such a way as to guarantee the security of the Geolocation data by also applying suitable encryption techniques designed to ensure confidentiality and to ensure that the data processed is "anonymous" both at the offices of the Data Controller and externally by the Third Parties appointed as Data Processors pursuant to Article 28 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679. 

3. Categories of personal data processed 

UniCredit collects Geolocation GPS coordinates only from Mobile Devices on which UniCredit's Mobile Application is installed and on which both the Geolocation function is enabled at the Operating System level of the Device (By way of example: function available in iOS or Android) and the consent to processing is given in the appropriate function of the Application itself.

The data related to the GPS Geolocation coordinates used to provide in the Customer's Mobile Device the location of the Convenience Merchants closest to him/her, are encrypted and the identifiers referring to the Customer used in the process are anonymized 

4. Recipients or categories of recipients of personal data 

In order to provide the functionality of "Pay in the stores near you" UniCredit makes use of an IT Platform made available by the Provider BANCOMAT S.p.A., with its sole office in Via delle Botteghe Oscure, 4 - 00186 Rome, which acts as Data Processor pursuant to Art. 28 Regulation (EU) 679/2016.
