This Cookie Policy explains how SB&O Inc uses cookies and similar technologies on sboinc.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device to make the site work, remember your preferences, or measure how the site is used. "Similar technologies" include things like local storage and tracking scripts that serve comparable purposes.
Your consent and control
We use a strict opt-in model. Analytics cookies and the Google Analytics script are not loaded until you accept them through the cookie banner shown on your first visit. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent because the Site cannot function without them.
You can change or withdraw your choice at any time by selecting Cookie Preferences in the footer of any page. Declining, or withdrawing consent, prevents analytics cookies from being set. You can also delete cookies and block them through your browser settings.
