Thank you for visiting 2175 Group. 2175 Group respects your privacy. We value transparency and want you to know exactly what we do with your personal information. This page maps out what personal information we collect, what we do with it, and your choices and rights.

We will inform you when this information is required, and we will let you know the consequences of failing to provide it.
