Cookies Policy
Access to this Website may involve the use of cookies. Cookies are small amounts of information stored in the browser used by each User — on the various devices they may use to browse — so that the server remembers certain information that only the server that implemented it will subsequently read. Cookies make navigation easier, more user-friendly, and do not harm the browsing device.
Cookies are automatic procedures for collecting information related to the preferences determined by the User during their visit to the Website, in order to recognize them as a User and personalize their experience and use of the Website. They can also, for example, help identify and resolve errors.
The information collected through cookies may include the date and time of visits to the Website, the pages viewed, the time spent on the Website, and the sites visited just before and after. However, no cookie allows that same cookie to contact the User’s telephone number or any other personal contact method. No cookie can extract information from the User’s hard drive or steal personal information. The only way for the User’s private information to become part of the Cookie file is for the user to personally provide that information to the server.
Cookies that allow the identification of a person are considered personal data. Therefore, the same Privacy Policy described above applies to them. In this regard, the use of these cookies will require the User’s consent. This consent will be communicated, based on an authentic choice, offered through an affirmative and positive decision, before initial processing, and is removable and documented.
First-party Cookies
These are cookies that are sent to the User’s computer or device and managed exclusively by Sandtons for the proper functioning of the Website. The information collected is used to improve the quality of the Website, its Content, and the User’s experience. These cookies allow the User to be recognized as a recurring visitor to the Website and to tailor the content to offer content that matches their preferences.
Third-party Cookies
These are cookies used and managed by external entities that provide services requested by Sandtons to improve the Website and the user experience while browsing the Website. The main objectives for using third-party cookies are to obtain access statistics and analyze browsing information, i.e., how the User interacts with the Website.
The information obtained refers, for example, to the number of pages visited, language, location from which the User’s IP address accesses, number of Users accessing, frequency and recurrence of visits, visit time, browser used, operator or type of device from which the visit is made. This information is used to improve the Website and identify new needs to offer Users optimal quality content and/or service. In any case, the information is collected anonymously, and trend reports of the Website are compiled without identifying individual users.
The entity(ies) responsible for providing cookies may transfer this information to third parties, whenever required by law or when a third party processes this information for such entities.
Social Media Cookies
Sandtons incorporates social media plugins, which allow access to them from the Website. For this reason, social media cookies may be stored in the User’s browser. The owners of these social networks have their own data protection and cookie policies, and they themselves are responsible for their own files and privacy practices. Users should refer to them to learn about these cookies and, where appropriate, the processing of their personal data.

Disabling, Rejecting, and Deleting Cookies
The User can disable, reject, and delete cookies – in whole or in part – installed on their device by configuring their browser (including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Explorer, for example). In this regard, the procedures for rejecting and deleting cookies may differ from one Internet browser to another. Therefore, the User should refer to the instructions provided by the specific Internet browser they are using. In the event that they refuse the use of cookies – in whole or in part – they may continue to use the Website, although some features may be limited.
