6. Data sharing and processors

As a general rule, personal data is not shared with third parties unless there is a legal obligation or it is necessary to provide a service requested by the user.

However, the site may rely on external providers for web hosting, analytics, backups or other technical functions. These providers act as data processors and only process data following the controller's instructions and with the appropriate safeguards.

In the case of analytics tools such as Google Analytics 4, the conditions and safeguards offered by the provider for data protection and international transfers are applied within the applicable legal framework.
