This information is not gathered for the purpose of being connected with identified interested parties but may, due to its nature, enable users to be identified by processing and combination with data held by third parties.

This data is used for the sole purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information on site usage and to control the correct functioning of the site, and is deleted immediately after it is processed. The data may be used to verify liability in the case of hypothetical computer crimes that constitute damages to the website, otherwise, in the current state, the website contact data will not be kept for more than fifteen days.

Cookies are not used for the transmission of personal information. The use of these persistent cookies pertains only to users registered by means of encryption for the sole purpose of keeping their browsing sessions active.
The use of so-called session cookies (which are not persistently stored on the user’s computer and are deleted when the browser is closed) is strictly limited to the transmission of session identifiers (composed of random numbers generated by the server) necessary to enable the website to be explored efficiently and safely.
