Personal information, such as names, user names, phone numbers, email and postal addresses, is collected only when it is provided voluntarily by the user.

No personal information provided by users of this website is automatically captured and/or stored. Certain non-personal user information may be collected, such as details regarding internet protocol addresses or the name of the operating systems used, the amount of time the site was accessed, and the nature of the requests made. This site uses cookies, i.e. small pieces of data sent to the user's browser and saved on their hard drive. The information collected is used to improve the users' online experience and to inform SIP about the number of visitors to its website.

We advise users that the latest versions of major browsers allow them to not only block the storing of cookies, but also carry out browsing sessions where all session cookies are automatically deleted at the end of a browsing session, regardless of their expected lifetime, thereby providing better protection against tracking. Users now have tools to manage cookies including:
