The provision of data and therefore the consent to the collection and processing of data is optional,  the User can deny consent, and can revoke an already given consent at any time  (via the banner at the bottom of the page or the browser settings for cookies, or the Contact link). However, denying consent may make it impossible to provide some services and the browsing experience on the site would be compromised.

The data for site security and for the prevention of abuse and SPAM, as well as data for analyzing site traffic (statistics) in aggregate form, are processed on the basis of the legitimate interest of the Data Controller in protecting the site and of the users themselves. In such cases, the user always has the right to oppose the processing of data (see par.  User rights ).
