Users of the Services should be aware that non-Personal Information and data may be automatically collected by virtue of the standard operation of BUENA’s computer servers or through the use of cookies. If you do not want information to be collected through the use of cookies, your browser allows you to deny or accept the use of cookies. There may, however, be some features of the Services which require the use of cookies in order to customize the delivery of information to you.
