User trust is important to us, and therefore, at SERVEIS TECNICS INDUSTRIALS DEL VALLES SL we are concerned about protecting your privacy. An important aspect of this is providing you with as much information as possible about how we use your personal data, including how we use local data storage and similar technology.

Local data storage involves storing different types of data locally on your device through your web browser.

One method of local data storage is cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (PC, mobile phone or tablet) that allow us to recognize your web browser.
