Your failure to consent to the processing of your data for marketing purposes will result in the impossibility for you to receive advertising material regarding the Company's and/or third parties' products as well as the impossibility for the Company to conduct market surveys, also aimed at assessing the degree of user satisfaction, as well as to send you newsletters.
