Who will receive my data?

In the framework of the first call and follow-up talks, only employees of DIMA subject to confidentiality provisions have access to your disclosed personal information.


Recipients outside DIMA

Data transfer to recipients outside the DIMA only relates to your data collected as part of a follow-up call.
