1. What cookies are and which we use
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device so that it can recognise the browser on a later visit. On thornton.ch we use only strictly necessary cookies that keep the session working and remember your cookie choice, together with an optional statistics cookie that is set only after you press "Allow" in the banner.
2. Managing cookies
The banner appears on your first visit and no optional cookie is set until you consent; you may decline, and you can change your decision later by clearing this site's data in your browser and reloading the page. Every current browser also lets you block or delete cookies in its settings, although disabling the necessary ones may impair parts of the site.
3. Third-party services
Some pages embed a Google Maps frame so you can find our office on Bahnhofstrasse, and the fonts, stylesheets and scripts are delivered from public content networks; these providers may process technical data such as your IP address under their own privacy terms. We do not place advertising or cross-site tracking cookies on this website.
