2. What we collect
- Information you provide: in the information request, catalogue, appointment, pre-registration and investment guide forms — your name and phone number; depending on the form, your email address, the product you are interested in (apartment type, commercial unit, etc.), your message, and the budget, monthly payment and floor-area preferences you select in the investment guide; your acknowledgement of the privacy notice and, if given, your consent to commercial electronic messages.
- Information recorded with the form: the page you submitted the form from, the site language and the time of submission. If you arrived through an advertisement: campaign tags (utm), ad click identifiers (gclid, gbraid, wbraid for Google; fbclid for Meta), the address of the first page you opened on the site and the referring site.
- WhatsApp redirects: when you use a “Message us on WhatsApp” button, only the page you came from, the topic you selected, the page language and the representative you were routed to are recorded. Your phone number and messages are not recorded by the site; the conversation takes place on WhatsApp under WhatsApp’s own terms.
- Technical information: the IP address sent by your browser, browser and device information, and the pages you view. Your IP address is used in a request counter kept for at most one hour to prevent form abuse and is not added to your form record. Our hosting provider may keep standard server access logs for security purposes.

6. Cookies and your choices
Our site uses strictly necessary cookies and your browser’s local storage; analytics and marketing cookies are set by Google Analytics, Google Ads and similar services. The cookie types are described in the Cookie Policy.

- Advertising source cookie: when you arrive through an ad, the campaign information is kept in our own first-party cookie for 90 days and is added to your record only if you submit a form.

- Your choice: the cookie choice you make is stored in your browser and applied on later visits.
