We collect personal data that you choose to voluntarily provide to us for your use of the website. Additionally, we collect certain personal data using cookies, utilizing technologies like browser local storage when you visit the website.

For this purpose, we use Google Analytics. Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc., which uses cookies to assist you. Information generated by the cookie regarding your use of our website (such as your IP address, the visited URL, the date and time of page display) will be transmitted and stored by Google on servers in the United States or any other country where Google maintains facilities. Your IP address will be anonymized by setting the last octet of your IP address to zero before it is stored by Google. Google will use this information to monitor your use of our website and to compile reports on website activity for us. Under our agreement with Google, Google is not permitted to use this information for its own purposes and can only transfer this information to third parties when required by law or when those third parties process information on behalf of Google.

How we protect personal data

We maintain appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal data from accidental, unlawful, or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, access, disclosure, or use.

We will inform you of any data breach that may have adverse consequences for your privacy in accordance with applicable law.

How long we retain personal data
