PeptoSfera is operated from Brazil under the LGPD. The Portuguese version at peptosfera.com.br/cookies is the governing document; this English translation is for convenience.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files a site stores on your device (computer, phone or tablet) when you visit. They let the site work correctly and, in some cases, recognize your device on later visits. This document also covers similar technologies such as local storage and URL parameters — we use "cookies" to refer to all of them. It complements our Privacy Policy.
2. Our approach: the minimum possible
peptosfera.com.br is an email-capture page for an editorial newsletter. We take a minimal-collection stance. In this version of the site, we do NOT use:
- Google Analytics or any third-party analytics tool;
- Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram), Google Ads or any advertising pixel;
- tracking cookies for profiling or remarketing;
- selling or sharing browsing data with advertisers.
3. Cookies and technologies we use
| Category | Purpose | Origin | Legal basis (LGPD) | Can you refuse? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary / technical | Basic operation of the site and subscription form, security and content delivery (Vercel/Cloudflare infrastructure) | First party / infrastructure | Legitimate interest — operating the requested service | No — the site won't work without them |
| Campaign parameters (UTM) | Identify which channel you came from (utm_source, utm_medium, utm_campaign), when present in the URL | First party | Legitimate interest (Art. 7, IX) | Yes — they stay in the URL and aren't needed to subscribe |
| Language preference | Remember your choice between the Portuguese (/) and English (/en) edition, where applicable | First party | Legitimate interest — user preference | Yes — via browser settings |
We install no third-party advertising cookies. Email open/click metrics are generated by our sending platform (Resend) inside the email itself, not by cookies on this site — the related processing is described in the Privacy Policy.
4. Managing cookies
Because we use no non-essential tracking cookies, there is no cookie consent banner on this site. You can still control and delete cookies anytime in your browser settings:
Disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the site from working.
5. If we add analytics or pixels later
If we later use third-party analytics or marketing pixels, we will add a consent banner with an active opt-in per category (no pre-checked boxes), update the table in Section 3 and the effective date, and inform you.
6. Your rights
Regarding data processed via cookies, you may exercise the data-subject rights under Art. 18 of the LGPD (confirmation, access, correction, deletion, portability, objection, withdrawal of consent). Write to editor@peptosfera.com.br; we respond within 15 days. See the Privacy Policy.
7. Updates
We may update this Policy at any time. The effective date at the top will always be updated. The current version is available at https://peptosfera.com.br/en/cookies.
