  • Management of contact requests.

Processing for the aforementioned purposes shall be carried out after obtaining the consent of the User to whom the data relates, except in cases where there is another legitimate reason for such processing and therefore the consent of the data subject is not necessary.

This service provider will process the data only for the purposes established by the Company and following its precise instructions, in strict compliance with the legal regulations on personal data protection, information security and other applicable legislation.

Personal data protection measures

The Company uses its best efforts to protect the personal data of Users against unauthorised access through the Internet. To this end, it uses security systems, rules and other procedures in order to guarantee the protection of the Users' personal data, as well as to prevent unauthorised access to the data, improper use, disclosure, loss or destruction.

It is, however, the responsibility of the User to guarantee and ensure that the computer he or she is using is adequately protected against harmful software, computer viruses, randsomware, worms. Additionally, the User must be aware that, without the adoption of adequate security measures (for example, the secure configuration of the browser, updated antivirus software, security barrier software and the non-use of software of doubtful origin), the risk of personal data and passwords being accessed by third parties without authorisation is increased.

Please note that whenever data is collected over open networks, such as the Internet, your data may circulate unsecured and there is a risk that it could be viewed and used by unauthorised third parties.
