What this site collects
This site has no forms, no accounts, no comments and no analytics of its own. One thing can be loaded, and only if you say yes to it — everything below is the detail of that one thing.
Who is responsible
Niki Donadio, who runs AutoMotion, is the data controller for this site. The address for any question about this page, including a request to exercise the rights below, is niki.donadio@automotionadvisory.com.

What loads without asking
Nothing, and no third party is involved. The pages are static files and the typefaces are served from this domain rather than from a font service, so while the tag described below is refused or unanswered your browser contacts nobody except this site.
The site sets no cookie of its own. It stores one value in your browser — the choice you made about the paragraph below — and that value never leaves your device.
Who handles data for us
The site is served by Vercel Inc., which keeps ordinary server logs — including the IP address a request came from — for a short period, to run the service and to defend it from abuse. That is a technical condition of putting a site online, not a decision about you, and it happens whatever you answer to the banner.
Email sent to the address above arrives in a mailbox at Aruba S.p.A. Both act as processors on our instructions, and neither is allowed to use anything for its own purposes.
What loads only if you agree
The LinkedIn Insight Tag: a script from LinkedIn Ireland that records that a browser reached certain pages of this site, so that an advert on LinkedIn can be measured against what it actually produced. It reads and writes LinkedIn's own cookies and reports back to LinkedIn, which may recognise a LinkedIn member.
The legal basis is your consent, and nothing more: no legitimate interest is claimed here. Until you accept, the script is not requested and no data reaches LinkedIn. If you refuse, nothing on this site is withheld from you or works differently.
The cookies, one by one
None of this exists until you accept. The first row is not a cookie at all: it is a value in your browser's local storage, it holds nothing but your answer to the banner, and it is the thing that stops us asking again.
| Name | Set by | What it is for | How long |
|---|---|---|---|
| am-consent | This site | Remembers whether you accepted or refused | Until you clear it, or use “Cookie choice” |
| bcookie | Browser identifier used across LinkedIn services | Up to 1 year | |
| li_sugr | Probabilistic browser identifier | Up to 90 days | |
| UserMatchHistory | Synchronises LinkedIn Ads identifiers | Up to 30 days | |
| AnalyticsSyncHistory | Records when a synchronisation happened | Up to 30 days | |
| lidc | Routing between LinkedIn's own data centres | Up to 1 day | |
| li_gc | Stores consent for non-essential cookies | Up to 6 months |
The LinkedIn rows are LinkedIn's, and so are the durations: LinkedIn can change them without telling us, and a list frozen here would quietly go out of date. The current one is published at linkedin.com/legal/l/cookie-table.
Where the data goes
LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company is in the European Union, but the LinkedIn group transfers data to LinkedIn Corporation in the United States. Vercel Inc. is a United States company. Both declare that they transfer on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses and, for the United States, under the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.
We transfer nothing ourselves. What leaves the European Union leaves inside those two services, on their terms — and in LinkedIn's case only after you have accepted.
How long it lasts
The cookies last for the periods in the table. What LinkedIn builds from them is kept by LinkedIn under its own policy; we see campaign figures in aggregate and never a list of who visited.
Server logs at the host are short-lived and are not read by us unless something breaks. An email conversation is kept for as long as it is useful and for as long as a professional obligation requires.
Changing your mind
Every page carries a “Cookie choice” control in the footer. Using it clears the stored choice and reloads the page, so the tag stops running immediately and you are asked again.
Cookies LinkedIn has already set live on LinkedIn's own domains, and no script of ours can reach them. To remove those, clear the site data for linkedin.com and licdn.com in your browser, or use LinkedIn's own advertising settings.
If you write to us
What you write, and the address you write from, are used to answer you and to carry the work forward if it becomes work. Your address is not added to a mailing list — the newsletter lives on LinkedIn and we cannot subscribe anyone to it — and it is never sold or passed on for anybody else's marketing.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you can ask what is held about you, ask for it to be corrected or deleted, ask for it in a portable form or sent to somebody else, ask that a use of it be restricted, object to a use of it, and withdraw a consent at any time without giving a reason — withdrawing does not undo what was lawful before it. Write to the address above.
If the answer does not satisfy you, you can complain to the Garante per la protezione dei dati personali, the Italian supervisory authority.
