EuroClaim views data privacy as a fundamental component of doing business. Our Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) is focused on processing personal data appropriately and lawfully, while providing confidentiality, integrity and availability.

We process personal data within the EU. Our activities are governed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (the “GDPR”), which is a directly binding legislative act.
