The following terms are used in the sense set out below, in the singular or plural as appropriate:

- ANPD: Autoridad Nacional de Protección de Datos Personales (National Authority for the Protection of Personal Data), the agency attached to the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights that supervises, provides guidance and imposes sanctions in this area.
- CONSENT: a free, prior, express, unequivocal and informed manifestation by the USER for the processing of their personal data or for the installation of cookies that require it.
- COOKIE: a small text file that a website stores in the USER's browser or device to remember information about their visit.
- LPDP: Law N.° 29733, Peru's Personal Data Protection Law, and its Regulation approved by Supreme Decree N.° 016-2024-JUS, in force since 31 March 2025, together with its amending, supplementary and concordant rules.
- USER: any natural person who accesses, browses or interacts with the WEBSITE to obtain information about ANDINO's educational services, contact the school, or take part in its admissions process. Where the USER is the parent or legal guardian of an applicant child, the USER is also responsible for the decisions made on the child's behalf.
- WEBSITE: the domains and subdomains owned and administered by ANDINO, in particular andinoschool.edu.pe (including its
/es/and/en/language directories), blog.andinoschool.edu.pe and admision.andinoschool.edu.pe, together with the contact and admissions forms linked to them.
This Cookie Policy applies to the WEBSITE only. It does not extend to third-party websites that the USER may reach through links, hyperlinks or embedded content, whose processing of personal data is governed by the policies published by each provider.
2WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHY DO WE USE THEM?
At ANDINO we want the WEBSITE to work reliably, safely and consistently. To achieve this we use a technology called «cookies». A cookie is a small text file that the WEBSITE saves in the USER's browser or device when they visit it. It allows us to remember information about the visit and the use of the platform, to speed up browsing and content delivery, and to keep the session secure.
Cookies do not allow us to read files or information stored on the USER's computer, nor to access their data from other websites. The WEBSITE does not store sensitive information in cookies (for example, identity documents, health data or bank details).
By duration, cookies are classified as:
- Session cookies: store information while the USER browses the WEBSITE and are deleted when the browser is closed or the session ends.
- Persistent cookies: remain stored on the USER's device for the period set by ANDINO or by the relevant provider, and can be read while they remain valid.
By the entity that manages them, cookies may be first-party or third-party:
- First-party cookies: sent by a domain directly controlled by ANDINO, such as those that record your privacy preferences.
- Third-party cookies: sent by a domain or service controlled by an external entity (for example, Google or Meta), which acts as a provider and processes the data it obtains through them under its own policies.
3TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE AND WHETHER CONSENT IS REQUIRED
The WEBSITE uses technical or essential cookies to operate correctly. Analytics and marketing cookies are only installed if the USER expressly accepts them. ANDINO does not use its own behavioural advertising cookies, nor profiling technology for any purpose other than those described in this Policy.
| Category | What does it do? | Is consent required? |
|---|---|---|
| Technical / Essential | Enables browsing, form submission, session management and the recording of your privacy preferences. Without them the WEBSITE cannot work properly. | No |
| Analytics | Allows visits to be counted and the use of the WEBSITE to be measured statistically, so that its content and performance can be improved. | Yes |
| Marketing | Measures the effectiveness of our campaigns and, where relevant, allows relevant communications to be shown. It includes conversion tracking on Meta and the admissions CRM tools. | Yes |
Basis for using essential cookies: under the LPDP and the principles of purpose, necessity and proportionality, cookies that are strictly necessary to deliver the service requested — such as recording your preferences or allowing a form to be submitted — do not require prior express consent. Their installation is based on the duty to inform and on the transparency principle established by current regulations.
4COOKIE INVENTORY FOR THE WEBSITE
Below we detail the cookies that the WEBSITE may install, separating those that depend on prior consent from the essential ones. Third-party providers may add, change or remove cookies in line with their own policies; if that happens, we will update this section.
| Category | Cookie name | Provider / owner | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical / Essential | andino_cc_prefs | ANDINO (first party) | Stores the cookie categories you chose, so that the banner does not have to be shown on every visit. | 12 months |

| Marketing | Kommo (amoCRM) chat and form cookies | Kommo Inc. (third party) | Enable the chat and the admissions form. The names and duration of these cookies are set by the provider itself. | According to Kommo's configuration |
About third-party providers: Google Analytics, Meta Pixel and Kommo are only loaded once you have accepted the corresponding categories. You can check the names and time limits those services apply on their own cookie information pages.
5CONSENT, MANAGEMENT AND WITHDRAWAL
On your first visit to the WEBSITE we display a privacy banner with three options: accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or choose which ones to allow. Your choice is recorded in the essential cookie andino_cc_prefs and is free, specific, informed and revocable.
How to change your preferences: you may review or amend your decision at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out before that change, by using the «Cookie settings» link available in the footer of the WEBSITE. The panel always shows the current state of your preferences and allows you to accept all cookies, reject them, or save a partial selection.
How to block or delete cookies in your browser: all browsers allow cookies to be managed. Please note that blocking or disabling essential cookies in full may affect how the site works — for example, the submission of contact or admissions forms.

6THIRD PARTIES AND EMBEDDED CONTENT
Certain content on the WEBSITE comes from third-party services. Until you accept analytics or marketing cookies, such content is shown as links or buttons and does not load on its own, so no cookies are installed:
- Google Analytics (Google LLC): measurement of traffic and use of the site.
- Meta Pixel (Meta Platforms, Inc.): conversion tracking and ad performance on Facebook and Instagram.
- Kommo / amoCRM (Kommo Inc.): support chat and the admissions registration form.
- Google Maps: the location map in the footer is shown as an external link while there is no consent; once you accept, the interactive map and its cookies are loaded.
Links to social networks (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube), to the blog or to the WEBSITE's intranet lead to external services whose personal data processing and cookies are governed by their own providers' policies. When you follow such links, those providers may install their own cookies under their own terms, for which ANDINO is not responsible.
7PERSONAL DATA PROCESSING AND DATA SUBJECT RIGHTS
Where the information collected through cookies constitutes personal data, or is associated with personal data, its processing is governed by the LPDP, its Regulation and the principles of lawfulness, purpose, proportionality, quality, security and accountability. To learn about the categories of data we process, our purposes, retention periods, engaged providers, and the procedure for exercising your rights of access, rectification, cancellation and objection (ARCO rights), as well as how to withdraw consent, please read our Privacy Policy.
Data controller: ANDINO, with registered address at Predio Chucllacunca S/N Mz. 1 Lote B2, Cachimayopampa, Cachimayo district, Anta province, Cusco. Privacy contact: administracion@andinoschool.edu.pe.
8SECURITY, CHANGES AND EFFECTIVE DATE
ANDINO applies technical, organisational and legal security measures to prevent unauthorised access to, alteration of, or improper use of personal data. You can find a description of these measures in our Privacy Policy.
ANDINO reserves the right to amend or update this Cookie Policy in order to reflect legislative, case-law or doctrinal developments, or changes to the services offered on the WEBSITE. Any material change will be announced through a visible notice on the WEBSITE and in the privacy banner. We recommend reviewing this section periodically.
