All website content is duly protected by intellectual and industrial property laws and is registered in the corresponding public registries.

Irrespective of its intended purpose, any total or partial reproduction, use, exploitation, distribution, and commercialisation requires prior written authorisation from the CONTROLLER in all cases. Any unauthorised use is considered a serious breach of the author's intellectual or industrial property rights.

Any designs, logos, text, and/or graphics not belonging to the CONTROLLER that may appear on the website belong to their respective owners, who are solely responsible for any possible controversy that may arise regarding them. The CONTROLLER expressly authorises third parties to redirect directly to the specific content of the website.

3. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY

The CONTROLLER assumes no liability for the information published on its website, provided it has no actual knowledge that this information has been manipulated or introduced by an external third party or, if it has, that it has acted diligently to remove the data or render access to it impossible.

Use of Cookies

This website uses technical cookies (small information files that the server sends to the user's computer) to perform certain functions considered essential for the proper functioning and previewing of the website. In any case, the cookies used are temporary, with the sole purpose of making website navigation more efficient, and disappear at the end of the user's session. Under no circumstances do these cookies provide personal data by themselves, nor will they be used to collect such data.

Through the use of cookies, it is also possible for the server where the website is hosted to recognise the browser used by the user in order to make browsing easier, allowing, for example, users who have previously registered to access areas, services, promotions, or competitions reserved exclusively for them without having to register on every visit. They may also be used to measure audience or traffic metrics, monitor progress and entry numbers, etc. In these cases, the cookies used are not technically essential but are beneficial to the user. This website will not install non-essential cookies without prior user consent.

The user can configure their browser to alert them to the reception of cookies and to prevent their installation on their computer. For further information, please consult your browser instructions.

Linking Policy

Users of this website may be redirected to content on third-party websites. Since the CONTROLLER cannot always control the content posted by third parties on their websites, it assumes no liability whatsoever regarding such content. In all cases, the CONTROLLER will immediately remove any content that might breach national or international law, morality, or public order, and will immediately withdraw the redirection to said website, notifying the competent authorities of the content in question.

The CONTROLLER shall not be held liable for information and content stored, including but not limited to, in forums, chats, blog generators, comments, social networks, or any other medium that allows third parties to publish content independently on the CONTROLLER's website. However, and in accordance with Articles 11 and 16 of the LSSICE, third-party content is made available to all users, authorities, and law enforcement agencies, collaborating directly in the removal or blocking of all content that could affect or violate national or international law, third-party rights, public morality, and public order. If a user considers that any content on the website could be classified as such, please notify the website administrator immediately.

This website has been reviewed and tested to ensure its correct operation. In principle, proper functioning can be guaranteed 24/7, 365 days a year. However, the CONTROLLER does not rule out the possibility that certain programming errors may exist, or that force majeure, natural disasters, strikes, or similar circumstances may occur, making access to the website impossible.

IP Addresses

The website servers may automatically detect the IP address and domain name used by the user. An IP address is a number automatically assigned to a computer when it connects to the Internet. All this information is recorded in a server log file that allows subsequent data processing to obtain purely statistical measurements showing the number of page views, visits to web servers, order of visits, access point, etc.

4. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION

These terms and conditions shall be governed by Spanish law in all matters not expressly established. The PROVIDER and the USER agree to submit any dispute that may arise from the provision of products or services subject to these Conditions to the courts of the USER's domicile.

If the USER is domiciled outside Spain, the PROVIDER and the USER expressly waive any other forum, submitting to the Dispute Resolution Body acting as an intermediary between them in accordance with Art. 14.1 of Regulation (EU) 524/2013, without the need to resort to the courts.

Processing risks: I acknowledge being informed about the data transfer to the specified service provider (under the attached contract) and being explicitly advised of the processing risks arising from the lack of adequate data protection safeguards in the destination country.

We use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Twitter. This allows you to communicate with such services and like or comment from our website. Social media plug-ins enable a direct communication between your device and the servers of the social media provider, allowing the social media provider to communicate with you and collect information about you browsing our website.

Further information about the processing of your personal data in the provider’s course of operation is provided via their respective privacy policy. Moreover, you will be provided with further information with regard to your rights and setting concerning privacy.

a) Facebook Social Plugins

We use so-called social plugins (“plugins”) of the social networking site facebook.com, a service of Meta Platforms Inc, 1 Hacker Way Menlo Park, California 94025, USA (“Meta”). The plugins can be identified by one of Facebook’s logos (white “f” on blue tile or a “thumps-up”-sign) or by the additional text “Facebook Social Plugin”. The list of Facebook Social Plugins and their appearance can be accessed via: http://developers.facebook.com/plugins.

If a user visits one of the websites using such a plugin, the user’s browser directly connects to Facebook’s servers. The plugin and its content are made available directly on Facebook’s servers and included on the website by the user’s browser.

Due to the integration of the plugin Facebook collects the information that a user is visiting the corresponding website. If the user is logged in on Facebook at the moment, he or she visits the website, Facebook may be able to connect the visit on the website to the user’s Facebook account. If the user interacts with the plugin – for example if he or she presses the like button or comments on something – the user’s browser transmits this information to Facebook. Facebook stores this information. If a user is not a member of Facebook, Facebook may collect and store the user’s IP-address. Facebook states that it only collects anonymized IP-addresses in Germany.

The reason for and scope of the data acquisition and information about the way in which the data is processed and used by Facebook, as well as the user’s rights in this respect and settings options for protecting the users privacy can be found under: http://www.facebook.com/policy.php.

If the user is a member of Facebook and does not wish Facebook to collect personal data via this homepage and to link this with his data stored on Facebook, the user needs to log off from Facebook before going to this homepage.

The user may also block Facebook’s plugins using add-ons for the user’s browser, for example the “Facebook Blocker”.

b) Twitter

We use the twitter-button. The button is provided by Twitter Inc., 795 Folsom St., Suite 600, San Francisco, CA 94107, USA. (“Twitter”) The buttons are marked using the text “Twitter” or “Follow” and a stylized blue bird. The button enables the user to share an article or a website of this homepage on Twitter or to follow the provider on Twitter.

If a user visits one of the websites using such a button, the user’s browser directly connects to Twitter’s servers.
