All buyer profile fields are optional with "Prefer not to say" options. This data is used for analytics and may be shared in anonymized, aggregated form with partner agencies (see B2B Services below).

Partner Network

We connect users with verified Italian property professionals including:

• Licensed real estate agents (agenti immobiliari)
• Property lawyers (avvocati)
• Mortgage brokers and finance partners
• Surveyors and architects (geometri, architetti)

Consent-Based Referrals

If you opt-in to partner referrals, we may share:

• Your name and contact information
• Property search preferences and budget range
• Regions of interest
• Buying timeline

You can withdraw consent at any time via your Account Settings. Partners are contractually bound to use your data solely for the referral purpose and comply with GDPR.

Anonymized Analytics

We provide partners with anonymized, aggregated market insights (e.g., search trends by region, price bracket preferences). This data cannot identify individual users.

What AI is Used For

We use AI systems (OpenAI GPT-4o, Anthropic Claude, Google Gemini and Perplexity AI) to perform automated analysis of property and market data. This includes generating investment scores, rental yield projections, and neighbourhood analysis. This AI processing concerns the property being analysed and market conditions — not individual user profiles or personal characteristics.

No Fully-Automated Legally-Binding Decisions About You

Trovara does not subject users to fully-automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about them as individuals within the meaning of GDPR Article 22(1). Our AI outputs are:

• Informational property analysis — not decisions about your eligibility for services
• Presented as estimates to assist your human decision-making
• Not used to approve or deny access to financial services, employment, or essential services

Your Right to Request Human Review

If you believe an AI-generated analysis or score in a Trovara report is significantly inaccurate or has caused you harm, you may contact our Data Protection Officer at dpo@trovara.io to request human review of the output. We will respond within 30 days. For more information, see our AI Transparency Statement.
