WhatsApp Pop-up
The website includes a WhatsApp channel to allow communication with customer service. Please note that our provider applies its own privacy policy, so we recommend reviewing your settings within the service and carefully reading its privacy policy. You may access it here:
Google Maps
We use Google Maps (API) to display interactive maps directly on our website and allow you to use its features. When using this service, Google will collect and store information about your usage.
Please note that the use of Google may involve International Data Transfers that are not based on an adequacy decision by the European Commission nor on the provision of appropriate safeguards. Therefore, such transfers may not provide an adequate level of protection in accordance with the GDPR.
These risks may include the absence of an equivalent supervisory authority, equivalent data protection principles, and/or equivalent data subject rights. For this reason, we recommend that you carefully read Google’s privacy policy beforehand:
Google Analytics 4
Provided that we have your consent, we use Google Analytics for statistical purposes to understand how users interact with our website, without Google personally identifying individual visitors.
Google Analytics 4 does not record or store IP addresses on any server. Instead, it uses an event- and parameter-based measurement model, with data recorded on domains and servers within the EU.
Where applicable, Google only collects approximate location data and device characteristics and includes estimated user data solely from users who have consented to the use of identifiers.
Where advertising features are enabled, you may disable Google Analytics advertising features through the appropriate settings or by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on available at:

If you have provided us with your résumé (CV), we will retain your data for a maximum period of two years from receipt, after which it will be deleted, unless you have updated your data or authorized us to retain it for a longer period. You may withdraw your consent at any time.
