Finally, remind Users that installing these cookies may involve Google or Meta performing international data transfers to the United States, which could mean, in very isolated and specific cases, access to the data by authorities in that country in the course of investigations and national security.
However, in line with our high compliance standards in privacy matters, we inform you that between Google or Meta and their subcontractors in the United States, the Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission are signed as a recognized guarantee mechanism by the GDPR with the aim of preserving the security of the data that may be subject to an international transfer.
