You can opt-out this communication at any time by contacting us via phone or email.
Due to the importance of voice calls, we use validation services for fraud prevention and process optimization. Thousands of phone numbers daily shall be managed and filtered, so we also could notify you about possible communication errors and suspicious activities.
