If you do not agree with this policy, you should not use the Site or its related services and should not disclose your personal information to us.
“The Owner” respects the privacy of its users and is committed to protecting the personal data they provide. In general, the user can browse the website without providing any personal information.

Processing is conducted directly by the organization of “The Owner.”
When personal data is collected, “The Owner” will inform the user of the purposes at the time of collection and, if necessary, request the user’s consent. “The Owner” will not share the user’s personal data with third parties without consent.
If the user provides personal data to “The Owner,” it may be communicated internally within “The Owner” or to third parties providing services to “The Owner,” only to those who need to know it to perform their duties, and, where necessary, with the user’s consent. “The Owner” will send informational or marketing material only after informing the user and obtaining consent, in accordance with applicable data protection regulations.
