INTRODUCTION 

Your privacy is important to us. Therefore, through this document, we explain what data we collect from users, how we use it and for what purposes, among other matters. Persons over the age of 14 may register as users without the prior consent of their parents, guardians or legal representatives. In the case of persons under the age of 14 or those identified as legally incapacitated, we will always require the consent of a parent, guardian or legal representative.

For your information, we will never request more information than is genuinely necessary to provide the required services; we will never share it with third parties, except where legally required or with your prior authorisation; and we will never use your data for any purpose that has not been previously stated.

As a user, you should read this Privacy Policy carefully on a regular basis and whenever you enter your personal data, as this document may be amended. The provider may modify any information appearing on the Website in order to comply with applicable regulations or update the policy, without being required to provide prior notice or otherwise inform users, publication on the provider’s Website being sufficient.
