3. we may share your information with third parties when you have given us your prior authorisation to do so.

From time to time, we may offer you the possibility to receive communications (including communications related to products and services) from selected third parties, such as our commercial partners and members of the Olympic Movement.

HOW DO WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION?

1.- Data security

We use technical and organisational measures to protect your personal information against the risks of damage, destruction, loss or unauthorised access, in accordance with applicable laws.

2.- International transfer

The information we collect will usually be processed in the European Union or in the Extra-European Union Countries of EOC’s Members, some of which do not provide in their laws for a level of protection of your privacy equivalent to the one applied within the European Union. Before transferring data from the European Union to Extra-European Union countries, we implement safeguard mechanisms recognized by European regulators such as standard contractual clauses or seek your express consent.

3.- Age limitation

The Services are intended for users who are 16 years old (or older) and we will not knowingly collect personal information about users below that age.

If we become aware that a child has provided us with personal information without parental or guardian consent, we will take steps to delete this information. If you become aware that your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us at
