Cookie Policy

As stipulated by the State Secretariat for Telecommunications and the Information Society, which reports to the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Tourism, the LSSI (Law on Information Society Services) does not generally apply to the public administration sector, as the latter is not classified as an information society service provider as defined in the Annex. It applies only where the administration’s activities are of an economic nature. Notwithstanding the above, we wish to inform you regarding the installation of cookies on the user’s device:
