In relation to the newsletter, access to the website is in no way conditional on newsletter subscription or the collection of personal data. The newsletter subscription is subject to confirmation by email sent to the user, after placing the order, as a way to confirm that the order was actually made by you. When sending each newsletter, metrics are collected to identify which subscribers opened (via an invisible pixel) and clicked on each link that may be contained in the message they received.

In the case of the website, this capture takes place directly (by filling in forms where data are requested) and indirectly (through the registration of actions carried out by website visitors, which are essentially anonymous but in some cases may allow their identification). Indirect capture includes electronic communication protocols, cookies, embedded addresses, transparent pixels, other widgets or georeferenced data.


What level of computer security is applied to personal data?


We use physical, technological and administrative security measures to protect information. The data captured through the GA Business Consulting website is communicated via the Internet network under SSL secure protocol. This type of communication is not inviolable but currently corresponds to the best market practices.
