On this website, we have adopted reasonably adequate security measures to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information containing personal data.

The purpose of such links may be to facilitate the search for resources that may be of interest to you on the Internet.

However, these pages do not belong to CIC energiGUNE, nor does CIC energiGUNE review their content, and therefore CIC energiGUNE cannot be held responsible for the content of these pages, or for any services that may appear and/or be available on these sites, or for the operation of the linked page, or for the use and processing of the data that these sites may provide, of the possible infringements that may be committed or of the potential damages that may arise from access to or use of the same, not implying the existence of any link between CIC energiGUNE and the persons or entities that own such content or the sites where they are located.
