Cookies may help us:

  • Remember website preferences

  • Understand how visitors use our website

  • Measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns

Depending on the website configuration, third-party services such as Google Analytics, Google Ads, or other analytics and advertising platforms may use cookies or similar technologies.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, our website’s cookie consent controls. Disabling certain cookies may affect some website features.

5. Sharing of Personal Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share relevant information in limited circumstances, including:

Where third-party service providers process information on our behalf, we aim to use appropriate safeguards and limit access to what is necessary.

6. Data Storage and Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, loss, or misuse.

These measures may include restricted access, security updates, secure hosting configurations, and appropriate administrative safeguards.

However, no website, electronic transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted over the internet.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, provide services, maintain relevant records, resolve disputes, and meet applicable legal or regulatory obligations.

The retention period may depend on the nature of the information, the purpose for which it was collected, and any applicable recordkeeping requirements.

Withdrawing consent does not affect processing already lawfully carried out before withdrawal, and some records may need to be retained to comply with legal obligations.

9. Third-Party Websites and Services

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, social media platforms, maps, or other external services.

These websites operate independently and may have their own privacy policies and practices. We encourage you to review their policies before sharing personal information with them.
