The processing manager is dedicated to doing business in accordance with all laws, regulations and the highest standards of ethical business. This policy sets out the provisions of the expected behavior of employees of the data controller and its external collaborators who deal with the collection, use, storage, transmission, publication or destruction of any personal data belonging to employees, business partners of the data controller and other natural persons.

Principles of personal data processing
The controller shall adopt the following principles to be followed in the collection, use, retention, transfer and destruction of personal data:

LIMITATION OF PURPOSE
Personal data will be collected for clearly defined and legitimate purposes and will not be processed in any way inconsistent with those purposes. This means that the data controller must clearly state what the collected data will be used for and limit the processing of personal data to only those processes that are necessary to achieve these purposes.
DATA MINIMIZATION
The personal data collected will be relevant and limited to what is necessary to achieve the purpose of their processing. This means that the controller will not collect, process or store more personal data than is absolutely necessary.
ACCURACY OF DATA
The collected personal data will be accurate and up-to-date, which means that the controller will have developed procedures for detecting and resolving obsolete, inaccurate and unnecessary personal data.
CAUTION STORAGE
Personal data will not be kept in a form that allows the identification of respondents for longer than is necessary for the purpose of processing. This means that the data controller, wherever possible, will store personal data in a way that limits or prevents the identification of the respondent.
DATA SECURITY
Personal data will be processed and stored in a way that provides adequate protection against breaches such as unauthorized and unlawful processing and accidental loss, destruction or damage to data. The data controller will implement appropriate technological and organizational measures described in the Personal Data Security Policy to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of personal data at all times.
