Collection

Sandton Gas will collect personal information in a fair and lawful manner, and not in an unreasonably intrusive way. Sandton Gas may collect information as a result of your participation in any promotions or competitions offered by our website, as well as from information you may provide when contacting us or giving Sandton Gas feedback in respect of the site.

The Information We Gather

Our sole purpose in gathering information about users is to provide the Services efficiently and effectively. We gather two types of information about users:

1. Tracking Information

Tracking information is information that is collected about every visitor to the Site, and is automatically gathered using "cookies". A "cookie" is a computer (text) file that is sent to a visitor's Web browser, by a Web server, in order to remember certain information. Per-session cookies are used on the Site to store information within a session. Per-session cookies are cached (stored in memory) and are only available while you are on the Site. They do not permanently record data and are not stored on your computer's hard drive. If per-session cookies were not used, moving around the web site would be a much slower process. Persistent cookies are used on the Site to store information that allows us to conduct online surveys and record whether you have expressed a preference not to take part in such surveys, in which case you will not be asked again. Persistent cookies are stored on your hard drive for a length of time set by the Site administrator. You can set your browser to detect and reject cookies. Your Web browser may provide instructions on how to do this.

2. Personal Information

Personal information is information that relates to an identifiable individual. Examples of personal information include your name, e-mail address, employment history, and other contact details. We limit the collection of personal information to what we need to know for the purpose of delivering the Services.
