We do not sell, rent, trade or otherwise disclose Personal Data to third parties, other than as described in this Privacy Statement, for the purposes described above, or as we disclose to you at the time the information is collected.

The request should make clear that a SAR is being made.  We may ask you to provide evidence of your identity if it is not clear.
  4. Responding to a SAR can be a time consuming exercise. DENTSPLY SIRONA may be able to get the information that you require more quickly if you are as specific as possible in your request. E.g., “I would like a copy of my Personal data contained in my website member account file” or if you would like a copy of a particular document it would be helpful if the document is described carefully, including the title, creation date, author and likely place of storage.  This will help us to respond to your SAR as quickly as possible. You may be asked for further details to assist us if insufficient information is provided.

Tracking cookies remain longer and help in understanding how you use our websites, and enhance your user experience. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie.  This enables you to decide if you want to accept it or not.  However, some of the services and features offered through our websites may not function properly if your cookies are disabled.

The following are examples of cookies that may be used on our websites:

a) Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around the website and use its features. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like saving your job application, adding products to a cart or checking out, cannot be provided.

They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the site when they are using it. Provided you have filled out the contact form on our website, these cookies may be used to contact you for a sales call.

c) Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our websites. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).

Therefore, if you interact with the plugins, for example by clicking “Like,” or entering a comment, the corresponding information is transmitted from your browser directly to that party. Your interaction with those services are governed by their applicable privacy policy and other policies which can be located on their websites.

For information on disabling Flash cookies, visit this page.

Please be aware that if you disable or remove these technologies, some part of our websites may not work and when you revisit our websites your ability to limit browser-based tracking technologies is subject to your browser settings and limitations. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to websites and online services you visit.
