Privacy Policy
With the new legislation on the protection of personal data applicable from 25 May 2018, we would like to inform and assure you of the security of your personal data.
Your information is stored securely on our system. Your data is not shared with anyone else and is not sold anywhere.
While no one can claim a 100% data breach prevention, rest assured that we will do everything possible to protect your personal data and should we become aware of an issue regarding its protection, we will take all possible measures to contain and correct it.
This policy (and our terms of use and any other related information found on this website) underpins the framework in which we operate in relation to the collection, provision and processing of your personal data by us. Please read the following carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will use it. When you visit our website, we retain certain basic information, acknowledge the safeguarding of that information and let you know what we will do with it.
This policy only applies to our own website. If through a link or otherwise you go to another site, then you should be aware that the other site is subject to its own privacy policy and terms of use. We have no control over, and are not responsible for, the other site’s policy and terms of use. You should check their specific policy before accessing the site.

Where we store your personal data
Your personal data that you declare to our company, are kept exclusively for your transactions with our company and relate only to the data that you provide us either by email, or by filling out the contact form, or through social networks, or by phone, or by visiting our site.

We ask that you do not share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, transmitting information over the Internet is not completely safe. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of the data transferred to our site. Any transfer is at your own risk. Once we receive your information, we will use strict procedures and security standards to try to prevent unauthorised access.
