Cookies Policy

Last Updated: April 11, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Dobromir Todorov (“I”, “me”, “my”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit my website at https://www.prodigytalmarketing.com (the “Website”). This policy explains what cookies are, why I use them, and your rights to control their use. It complies with applicable laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive, as I am based in the European Union (Bulgaria), and may also align with other regulations like (but not limited to) the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) if applicable to my users.

Cookies and similar technologies may collect personal data, such as your IP address or browsing behavior, especially when combined with other information. For more details on data processing, see my Privacy Policy.


1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your device (e.g., computer, phone) when you visit a website. They help websites function efficiently, improve user experience, and provide insights to website owners.

Cookies set by me, the website owner (Dobromir Todorov), are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by external providers (e.g., Google Analytics, ad networks) are “third-party cookies,” used for features like analytics, advertising, or interactive content.


2. Why Do I Use Cookies and What are The Main Types?

I use first-party and third-party cookies for the following purposes:

  • Essential Cookies: These are required for the Website to function properly (e.g., navigation, security). They cannot be disabled as they are critical for basic operations.
  • Performance and Functionality Cookies: These enhance the Website’s usability and performance (e.g., remembering your preferences). You can choose to accept or reject these.
  • Analytics and Customization Cookies: These help me understand how visitors use the Website (e.g., which pages are popular) to improve your experience. Providers like Google Analytics may be used. You can choose to accept or reject these.
  • Advertising and Marketing Cookies: These deliver ads tailored to your interests based on your browsing behavior. Third parties like ad networks may set these. You can choose to accept or reject these.


3. How Can You Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies via my Cookie Consent Manager, accessible through the cookie notification banner when you first visit the Website or anytime in the lower left corner ot the Site. Essential cookies cannot be disabled because they are necessary for the Website to work.

Consent for non-essential cookies is freely given, specific, informed, and unambiguous, as required by GDPR. You can revisit and update your preferences at any time by accessing the Cookie Consent Manager in the Website’s lower left corner.

You can also manage cookies directly in your browser. Here’s how:

Note: Opting out of targeted ads stops personalization but may not stop all data collection.


4. Cookies in Use

For maximum transparency, I make every reasonable effort to maintain a detailed and regularly scanned and updated list of active cookies on my Active Cookies page.  The list includes the cookie name, provider, purpose, type (e.g., essential, analytics, marketing), and duration. Examples include Google Analytics cookies (e.g., _ga, stored for 2 years) for analytics and advertising cookies from third-party ad networks. While I strive to keep this list as accurate and up to date as possible, I cannot guarantee it is 100% exhaustive at all times, due to the nature of third-party services and dynamic content. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time via the Cookie Yes pop up button (in the lower left corner), where you can opt in or out of non-essential cookies.


5. Other Tracking Technologies

I may use technologies like web beacons or pixel tags (tiny images embedded in pages or emails) to track visitor activity and engagement, such as page views or email opens. These often work with cookies to analyze usage patterns.


6. Flash Cookies

I may use Flash Cookies (Local Shared Objects) for certain features. Unlike browser cookies, these are not managed via browser settings. You can control them through Adobe’s Website Storage Settings Panel.


7. Targeted Advertising

Third parties may use cookies to serve ads relevant to your interests, based on your Website interactions or broader browsing behavior. These cookies don’t directly identify you (e.g., by name) but may use data like your IP address or device ID.  Opt-out options are available via the DAA, DAAC, or EDAA links above.


8. Retention Periods

Cookie data retention varies by type. Essential cookies typically expire when you close your browser (session cookies), while others, like analytics cookies, may last up to 2 years. Durations of the scanned cookies are listed on the Active Cookies page.


9. Updates to This Policy

I may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect changes in technology, law, or Website features. I encourage you to check back regularly to stay informed about how cookies are used.
