This page contains our Privacy Policy and our Website Disclaimer.
1. Who we are
Galanti Bridge Consulting LLC (“Galanti Bridge,” “we,” “us”) is a single-member limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Arizona, United States, with its place of business in Scottsdale, Arizona. We provide consulting services to Americans engaging with Italy, in both business and personal matters.
This policy explains what personal information we collect through galantibridge.com and in the course of our work, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. We are the controller of the personal information described here.
Contact for privacy questions: amedeo@galantibridge.com · Galanti Bridge Consulting LLC, Scottsdale, Arizona, USA.
2. Information we collect
Information you give us directly.
Your name, email address, and any phone number you provide.
The answers you give in our booking and intake questions — which, depending on the service you are asking about, may include your goals for Italy, your timeline, your company and its sector, your family situation, your ancestry and family history, your visa or residency status, and a general picture of your financial or tax circumstances.
Anything you choose to tell us by email, in a scheduled call, or in documents you send us in the course of an engagement.
Billing information you provide when you become a client.
Information collected automatically.
Standard server and log information generated when you visit the site, including IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and the pages you view.
Cookies and similar technologies as described in section 8.
Information from others.
Records you ask us to work with, or that you authorize us to obtain on your behalf — for example civil, parish, immigration, or naturalization records in a heritage or citizenship engagement, or public company-registry and financial records in a partner-vetting engagement.
Limited confirmation information from our payment processor when a payment is made.
Sensitive information.
Some of our work necessarily involves sensitive information. Heritage and citizenship-by-descent engagements involve your ancestry and family origin, which can reveal ethnic origin. Retirement and relocation engagements can involve information about your health or your family circumstances. We collect it only where it is necessary for the service you have asked us to provide, and we use it only for that engagement.
3. Why we use it, and on what basis
We use personal information to respond to your enquiry, to assess whether we are the right fit for what you need, to deliver the services you engage us for, to issue invoices and take payment, to keep our own business records, and to comply with our legal and tax obligations.
Where the EU or UK General Data Protection Regulation applies to you, our legal bases are:
Performance of a contract — delivering an engagement you have entered into with us, and the steps taken at your request before entering into it.
Legitimate interests — running and securing our business, keeping records of our work, and responding to enquiries. We rely on this only where your interests and rights do not override it.
Consent — where you have asked us to introduce you to, or coordinate with, a third-party professional, and for any information revealing ethnic origin, health, or similar sensitive matters that arises in heritage, citizenship, retirement, or relocation work. You may withdraw consent at any time, without affecting anything done before you withdrew it.
Legal obligation — tax, accounting, and record-keeping requirements that apply to us as a US business.
We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling, and we do not use it to build advertising audiences.
4. Who we share it with
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Service providers who process information on our behalf:
Framer — website hosting and delivery.
Cal.com — scheduling, and the intake questions answered when you book a call.
Google Workspace — business email, documents, and file storage. This includes the messages sent through the contact form on our site, which reach us by email.
Stripe — payment processing. Your card details are provided directly to Stripe and are processed under Stripe’s own privacy policy; we do not receive or store full card numbers.
Mercury — business banking, and Wave — bookkeeping, for payment records and accounting.
Independent professionals, with your knowledge:
Legal questions arising in our work are routinely routed to an Italian attorney who practices independently and who reviews the legal dimension of many of our engagements. He is an independent controller of information you share with him and handles it under his own professional obligations.
Parts of our work involve introducing you to, or coordinating with, independent professionals — an Italian attorney, a commercialista, a notaio, a surveyor, a cross-border tax advisor, an estate attorney, a real estate agent, or a school or healthcare contact. These professionals are independent controllers of any information you share with them, not our processors, and they handle it under their own professional obligations and privacy terms. We share your information with them only where you have asked us to, or agreed that we should.
Other disclosures:
Where we are required to by law, court order, or a governmental authority.
Where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
To a successor entity in the event of a sale or reorganization of the business, subject to this policy.
5. Where your information is held
We are a United States business and your information is stored and processed in the United States by us and by the providers listed above. If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, this means your information is transferred outside your home jurisdiction. Where our providers make transfers of this kind, they do so under the European Commission’s standard contractual clauses or another recognized transfer mechanism.
Where an engagement involves professionals in Italy, information you ask us to pass to them is transferred to Italy and handled by them as independent controllers.
6. How long we keep it
Enquiries that do not become engagements: up to 24 months from your last contact with us, then deleted.
Client engagement records, including deliverables and correspondence: for the duration of the engagement and for seven years afterwards, consistent with US tax and record-keeping requirements and the possibility of later questions about work we delivered.
Billing and accounting records: seven years.
Website log data: for the period retained by our hosting provider.
We may keep information for longer where we are required to, or where it is necessary for a legal claim. Where we no longer need information, we delete it or remove its connection to you.
7. Your rights
If you are in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, you have the right to ask us for a copy of the personal information we hold about you; to have inaccurate information corrected; to have information deleted; to restrict or object to how we use it, including where we rely on legitimate interests; to receive certain information in a portable format; and to withdraw consent where we rely on it. You also have the right to complain to your national data protection authority.
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose; to request deletion or correction; and to be free from discrimination for exercising those rights.
In the twelve months before the date at the top of this page, we have collected the following categories of personal information: identifiers (name, email address, phone number, IP address); commercial information (the services you enquired about or purchased, and payment records); internet activity information (site and log data); professional or employment-related information, where you give it to us; and, where the engagement calls for it, sensitive personal information in the form of information that can reveal racial or ethnic origin. We collect it from you, from your devices when you use the site, from our service providers, and from records you ask us to obtain. We use it for the purposes described in section 3, and we disclose it for business purposes to the service providers and independent professionals described in section 4.
We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law, and we do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose other than delivering the service you have asked for. California residents may also request information about disclosures to third parties for direct marketing purposes; we make none. You may use an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf, and we may ask that agent for proof of authority.
Wherever you are, you can ask us what we hold and ask us to delete it, and we will do our best to honor the request within the limits of our record-keeping obligations.
To exercise any of these rights, email amedeo@galantibridge.com. We will respond within 30 days, or within 45 days for California requests, and may need to verify your identity first.
8. Cookies and tracking
Our website uses cookies and similar technologies that are strictly necessary for the site to work, to keep it secure, and to remember your preferences. Our scheduling provider sets cookies when you book a call, and our website host sets cookies necessary to deliver and secure the site.
You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when one is set. Some parts of the site may not work properly if you do.
Do Not Track. Some browsers send a “Do Not Track” signal. There is no common standard for how these signals should be honored, and our site does not currently respond to them. We do not track your activity across other websites over time.
9. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we hold, including access controls, authenticated business email, and reputable providers for hosting, scheduling, payments, and accounting. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please do not send us sensitive documents — passports, birth certificates, financial statements — by unsecured email; we will tell you the right way to send them when the time comes.
10. Children
Our services are directed to adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. Where an engagement concerns a family, any information about your children is provided to us by you as their parent or guardian, and we use it only for that engagement. If you believe a child has provided us information directly, contact us and we will delete it.
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as our services or our obligations change. The effective date at the top shows when it was last revised. Where a change is significant, we will say so on this page.

Nature of this website and our services
Galanti Bridge Consulting LLC is a United States consulting firm. We provide strategic and operational guidance, orientation, project management, and bilingual representation. We do not provide legal, tax, immigration, or investment advice, and nothing on this website constitutes such advice.
Where a matter calls for a legal determination, it is made by qualified counsel — an Italian attorney for questions of Italian law, and your own professionals for tax, accounting, and notarial matters. We tell you clearly which is which, and we do not blur the line.
Articles and published material
The articles published on this site are general commentary written at a particular moment. Italian law in the areas we write about — citizenship by descent, tax regimes, permanent establishment, commercial agency — changes, sometimes quickly, and its application depends entirely on the facts of an individual case. Nothing published here should be relied on as advice, and reading it creates no advisory or attorney-client relationship with us or with any professional we work alongside. Verify anything that matters to your situation with a qualified professional before acting on it.
Third-party sites and professionals
This site may link to third-party websites, and our services may involve introductions to independent professionals. We are not responsible for the content of third-party sites, and independent professionals are responsible for their own advice and their own handling of your information.
Intellectual property
The content of this website, including the articles, is the property of Galanti Bridge Consulting LLC. You are welcome to read it, quote it with attribution, and share a link to it. Reproducing it in substance without permission is not permitted.
Governing law
This website is operated from the United States and these terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona.
