This notice describes the personal data we collect and the purpose for which it is collected, and explains how we ensure it is protected. Personal data is information relating to an identified or identifiable person. It includes, in particular, all information that allows you to be identified, such as your name, telephone number, address or email address. Statistical data such as that collected during a visit to our website, for example, that cannot be attributed to you as an individual, is not personal data.
