a) Navigation Data

The computer systems and software procedures used to operate this website acquire, during their normal operation, some personal data the transmission of which is implicit in the use of Internet communication protocols. This information is not collected to be associated with identified individuals, but due to its nature, it could allow the identification of users through processing and association with data held by third parties (e.g., IP addresses or domain names of computers used by users, URI addresses, and other parameters related to the user’s operating system and computer environment).

This data is used solely for the purpose of obtaining anonymous statistical information about the use of the website and to ensure its proper functioning, understand users’ needs, opinions, and requirements, and improve its offerings.

When users voluntarily and explicitly send email to the addresses indicated on this website, GEEG will acquire the sender’s email address, as well as any other personal data included in the message. Such data will be processed solely for the purpose of responding to the requests received. The data may be used to establish responsibility in case of hypothetical computer crimes against the website.

It should be understood that whenever GEEG collects additional Personal Data through the website, the User will be invited to review the information in accordance with Art. 13 of the Regulation and to provide their consent for processing.
