01 / Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files that a website may ask your browser to store on your device. They can retain a choice between visits or, with your permission, help us understand how pages are used. Local storage, also called local storage, serves a similar purpose but keeps data in an area of the browser that is not automatically sent with every request to the site. This policy explains both technologies together because each can retain information about your preferences.
How long data remains available depends on the technology, your browser settings, and whether you clear it. Blocking or deleting this data may cause the site to ask you to make a choice again. The information on this page concerns this site; settings for other sites and apps are managed separately.
02 / How This Site Uses Them
When you open the site without a recorded choice, you see a notice with options to accept, reject, or configure the optional categories. Your decision is stored in your browser’s local storage under the key cookie_consent. This record contains your choice for the necessary, analytics, and marketing categories; it does not need to contain your name, address, or the contents of a message sent through the form.
The preference record is necessary so the site can remember your decision rather than show the notice on every page. Optional technologies do not run before you consent. Accepting does not necessarily mean an optional tool is in use: it means you have authorized that category if it is used. Rejecting optional categories does not prevent you from browsing the pages or using the published contact information.
03 / Available Categories
Brazil’s General Personal Data Protection Law, Law No. 13,709/2018 (LGPD), governs the processing of personal data related to these technologies. For optional categories, the choice shown in the notice is how we obtain your authorization. You can decline without giving a reason and change your mind later.
04 / What Is Stored
The table distinguishes the record used by the notice from possible optional technologies. The analytics and marketing rows describe conditional categories; they do not state that any particular tool is already installed. We do not assign names, providers, or exact storage periods to tools that are not identified in this policy.
The record cookie_consent remains on your device until it is removed, for example, when you clear site data in your browser. Saving another selection replaces your previous preference. If optional technologies are introduced, this policy must be updated with enough information for you to assess their use.
05 / How to Change Your Choice
You can reopen the notice at any time using the control below or the preferences link in the footer. There, you can accept or reject all optional categories at once, or open the settings and choose analytics and marketing separately. The necessary category remains active. Saving a new selection replaces the previous one in this browser.
You can also delete cookies and local storage data in your browser settings. This option is generally found under privacy, security, or site data, although menu names vary by browser. You can delete only this domain’s data or clear a larger set of data, as you prefer. After deletion, the notice may appear again because your previous decision will no longer be available. If you use another browser or device, you will need to make your choice there too.
06 / Third-Party Content and Services
A hosting provider may process technical information needed to deliver the pages you request. If optional features use analytics or marketing providers in the future, the related processing must respect your chosen category and be explained before activation. The presence of a category in the notice does not mean that a particular provider receives your data.
Links to external pages, when provided, lead to sites with their own storage and privacy practices. This site’s policy does not control cookies set after you leave the Alphabastro domain. Before providing data or changing preferences on another service, review the information provided by its operator.
07 / Policy Updates
We may revise this policy if the site’s functions, technologies, or legal requirements change. The date shown at the beginning of the page identifies the version presented here. A change involving new purposes or optional technologies does not turn a previous choice into authorization for different uses. When necessary, we will ask you to make a new decision before activating them.
We recommend checking this page when you want to review the available categories and how to manage your preferences. If a description no longer matches how the site works, it must be corrected. Your ability to reject optional categories and reopen the settings remains available regardless of an update to the text.
08 / Contact and Your Rights
The controller responsible for the processing described in this policy is Alphabastro Serviços em Pedra Ltda., Rua Voluntários da Pátria, 190, sala 204, Botafogo, Rio de Janeiro - RJ, 22270-010, Brazil. To ask about cookies, your choice, or the processing of personal data, email contato@alphabastro.site or call +55 (21) 98843-2617. Describe your question without sending personal data that is not needed to answer it.
Under the LGPD, you may request information about the processing of your personal data and exercise the rights applicable to your situation, including withdrawing consent for optional processing. Changing your preferences in the notice provides a direct way to record a new choice in this browser. If you believe a data protection issue has not been resolved, you may also file a complaint with the Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados (ANPD), Brazil’s competent authority.
