Privacy

SSM wishes to offer you an excellent quality and personalised service. In order to do so we collect data that concerns you, in a general way.

We respect your privacy, but we are aware that you may ask yourself how your personal data is protected. The reason we are publishing this statement is to inform you about how we operate.

Collection and use of personal data

Use of IP addresses

An IP address is a code attributed to computers connected to the Internet, which use the TCP/IP protocol. It works in the same way as a phone number and it enables computers to be distinguished from one another. In the same way as cookies, it is not personal data.

We do not collect IP adresses on our web site.
