Dear User,

Our social media networks allow us to connect with you, to share and discuss coffee, and much more. We believe that it is essential for our community to be open and inclusive, which is why we encourage you to talk to us and to other people, and to share questions, advice, opinions, stories and conversations about Lavazza and the world of coffee. We constantly endeavour to make our social media networks interesting for our audience, because their purpose is to connect with coffee lovers, providing a safe space for interaction.

Below we would like to provide you with some information and rules to follow when using our social media channels:

  • The content you share on Lavazza's social media channels (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc.), may involve the collection and processing of some of your personal and non-personal data, such as likes, feedback, comments and in general any content and information you may publish. The processing of your Personal Data will be based on the principles of correctness, lawfulness, transparency, limitation of purposes and storage, minimisation and accuracy, integrity and confidentiality, in accordance with current legislation on the processing of personal data.
    Your Personal Data may also be processed during promotional and/or lead collection campaigns realize by Lavazza on social media. This processing may be done through targeting activities (for example, by allowing coffee-loving users to be reached by Lavazza advertising on their social media accounts).
