When you browse this website, we collect statistics about your visit, such as the date and time of the request, pages accessed, documents requested, the referring page that linked to this website, your browser and operating system, IP address and inferred location and language. The legal basis for processing this data is our legitimate interest in gauging the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, estimating the volume of website visitors, and ensuring sufficient capacity to cope with visitor traffic. This data is used in an aggregate format, and no association is made with individual users.

Your information will not be shared with third parties except in these specific circumstances:

The transfer of data abroad by any third-party provider without permission is against our policy.
