June 06, 2021 "Dear friends, yesterday the procedure for returning the data of the 5 Star Movement members was finally started by the Rousseau association, which had treated them as data processor on behalf of the Movement - which of the data was and is the owner. I would now like to update you on some of the steps that are taking place in these hours ". This was stated on Facebook by Vito Crimi, political leader of the Five Star Movement.
"The technical transfer operations - reads the post - for the part relating to user data, took place yesterday afternoon on a regular basis, also in the presence of two forensic experts who certified the integrity and correspondence of the data collected with those made available by the Rousseau association. Not all data has been collected. Other data are, for example the files uploaded by members, the data relating to the activist profile, the documents uploaded in the sections or functions of the platform such as sharing, portal events and more, as well as all the paper material produced over time and stored for legal obligations, for which, given the complexity of their recognition, it was jointly agreed to proceed at a later stage ".
"The data we have regained possession - continued Crimi - are those of the member profile and starting from tomorrow they will be subjected to a verification, which may take one or more days, and immediately uploaded to a new work environment. , that is a management system that will allow the management of all requests and legal obligations. Once the data delivered has been verified, together with the insertion in the new management system, all members will be informed of any changes made to the methods of processing the In a very short time, the web interface will also be available, that is a page from which to log in and to view, modify, delete your data or make requests, as well as proceed with new registrations.insertion in this new management environment of such a large amount of data - almost 300,000 records - is an operation that requires accuracy, appropriate time, attention and a lot of checks. It is also necessary to implement security tools at the highest level, before making remote access available to subscribers.
In recent weeks we had already moved on with the work, in view of this moment, and therefore the new home of the members is almost ready, but for some aspects it was also necessary to know the structure of the data that would be delivered to us, which only now we can analyze "." To better understand what we are talking about - Crimi emphasized - I use the metaphor of a move because this is what it is: moving from one house to another, but the family remains the same with its roots and the challenges to be faced for the future. Our new home is almost ready, the boxes have arrived at their destination, but before it can accommodate the whole family it must be made habitable and welcoming: the boxes must be opened and everything must be put in its place.As regards the next online vote, however, we will make use of the support of an external company, specialized in this field. The activities for the preparation of the next vote will take place in parallel, therefore the activation times will be independent of the preparation of the new home of the members.
However, I would like to remind you that the deadlines set by the bylaws exist for voting which, in the event of changes to the bylaws, provide for a notice of at least 15 days prior to the date of the vote. A new phase of growth and evolution of the 5 Star Movement begins. For us too it is a moment of transition, so we all work together to make our new home as welcoming, functional and open to new energies as possible. We count on looking forward, but also upwards: per aspera ad astra ".
