We collect certain information by automated means when you visit www.prodesign.bg. By collecting this information we learn how best to tailor the site to our visitors. We collect this information in a variety of ways as explained below.
What are the cookies?
For almost any modern website to work properly, it needs to collect certain basic information about its users. To do this, the site will create files known as cookies, which are small text files that websites send to a visitor's computer or other Internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor's browser, store information, or certain browser settings. These cookies are designed to allow a website to recognize its users on subsequent visits or to authorize other specified websites to recognize those users for a particular purpose.
Cookies perform many different tasks, such as remembering your preferences on the websites you often visit, remembering your username and the contents of your shopping carts, and helping you navigate between pages more efficiently.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies to improve the website and provide services and functionality to its users, to track our own performance and also to offer you content tailored to your requirements, hopefully improving your overall experience when using the website.
We do our best to respect the privacy of the website users. We use cookies to monitor and improve our services, but they also allow us to run advertising campaigns that are tailored to your interests and the material you read on our website. We sometimes include links on our website to goods and services offered by third parties, and we may be paid some commission if you subsequently decide to make a purchase. Cookies may be used to track your visits to third party sites to ensure that we are paid the correct amounts. These commercial arrangements in no way affect our editorial content.
We believe that your experience on the website would be adversely affected if you opted out of the cookies we use.
What types of cookies are there and which ones do we use?
Below is a list of the cookies we use on this website.
A cookie will be placed on your device to allow us to remember your choices. If you do not reject cookies and continue to use the site, the cookies below will be placed on your device. You can indicate that you reject all cookies below. If you refuse all cookies, you may not be able to take full advantage of the website.
There are two types of cookies:
1. Persistent: Remain on the user's device for a period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.
2. Session cookies: These are temporary and allow website operators to link a user's actions during a browser session. The browser session starts when the user opens the browser window and ends when the user closes the browser window. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
Cookies have a total of four different functions and can be categorised as follows: strictly necessary cookies, performance cookies, functionality cookies and targeting or advertising cookies.
Strictly necessary cookies are essential for navigating around the website and using its features. Without them you will not be able to use basic services such as registration. These cookies do not collect information about you that can be used for marketing or to remember where you have been on the internet. For example, we use these cookies to:
- Set unique identifiers for each individual visitor so that site numbers can be analysed.
Performance cookies collect data for statistical purposes about how visitors use the website. They do not contain personal information such as names and email addresses and are used to improve your user experience on the website. For example, we use them to collect data about visits to the website, including the number of visitors and visits, the length of time spent on the site, the pages clicked on or where visitors come from and for comparison with other websites using data collected from industry-accepted research and surveys.
The information provided by performance cookies helps us understand how you use the website. For example, whether you have visited before, what you looked at or clicked on and how you found us. We can then use this data to improve our services.
Functional cookies allow users to personalise the way the website searches for them. They can remember usernames, location and can be used to provide more personal services such as news updates. An example of how we use cookies for functionality: if you have been on the site before, we remember information so that messages intended for new users are not shown to you.
Advertising and targeting cookies are used to serve ads that are more relevant to you, but may also limit the number of ads shown and be used to report on the effectiveness of an ad campaign by tracking user clicks. They may remember that you have visited a website and this information may be shared with other organisations, including other advertisers. They cannot determine who you are because the data collected is not linked to your profile.
We use these cookies primarily for interest-based advertising (or online behavioural advertising) . "Cookies” are installed on your device by third-party service providers that remember your web browser activity, group your interests to provide you with tailored ads.
Without these cookies, the online ads you encounter will be less relevant to you and your interests.
