2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit them.

Cookies allow websites to recognise a device, remember user preferences, maintain shopping basket information, improve security, analyse website performance and provide relevant functionality.

Cookies do not normally identify you directly by name, but some information collected through cookies may be linked to an account, order or other personal information.

We may use both first-party and third-party cookies.

• First-party cookies are placed directly by BlackSeaRose.com and are generally used to provide the website and online shop functionality.
• Third-party cookies are placed by external service providers whose services are integrated into our website, such as payment, analytics, security, embedded content or marketing providers.

Third-party providers may process information according to their own privacy and cookie policies.

4. Session and Persistent Cookies

Cookies may also be classified according to how long they remain on your device:

• Session cookies are temporary and normally expire when you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

We may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• operate and secure the website;

• process checkout and customer account functions;
• remember your language, currency and other preferences;
• prevent fraudulent or unauthorised activity;
• understand how visitors use the website;

6. Categories of Cookies

6.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are required for the website and online shop to function correctly. They support essential features such as security, network management, shopping basket functionality, checkout, customer login and cookie preference management.

These cookies cannot normally be disabled through our cookie preference tool because the website may not function properly without them.

Where permitted by law, strictly necessary cookies are used without requesting consent. They are not used for independent advertising purposes.

6.2 Functional Cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as language, currency, region, display settings or other preferences.

If these cookies are disabled, some personalised website features may not work as expected.

6.3 Analytics and Performance Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website. They may collect information such as:

• the pages visited;
• the time spent on particular pages;
• the approximate source of website traffic;
• browser and device type;
• general location based on an abbreviated or otherwise processed IP address;
• website errors; and
• interactions with website features.

We use this information to improve website performance, navigation, content and customer experience.

Where required by applicable law, analytics and performance cookies are activated only after you provide consent.

6.4 Marketing and Advertising Cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure advertising campaigns, limit how often advertisements are displayed and provide content or advertisements that may be more relevant to your interests.

These cookies may allow advertising providers to recognise your browser or device across different websites.

Marketing and advertising cookies will be activated only where they are used on the website and after you have provided the required consent.

When you select an electronic payment method, the relevant payment provider may use cookies or similar technologies for payment processing, fraud prevention, authentication and security.

Available payment methods may include debit or credit card payments and PayPal. Bank transfer and cash on delivery may also be available for eligible orders.

Payment providers operate under their own privacy and cookie policies. The provider used for your transaction will be displayed during checkout.

9. Embedded and External Content

Pages on our website may include content or functionality provided by third parties, such as videos, maps, social media features, payment tools or external product information.

When you interact with such content, the relevant third party may place cookies or collect information about your device and interaction. Non-essential embedded content should be blocked until the required consent has been provided.

10. Legal Basis for Using Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are used because they are required to provide the website, shopping basket, checkout, security and other services requested by the user.

Where consent is legally required, functional, analytics, marketing and other non-essential cookies are used only after you have made an affirmative choice through our cookie consent tool.

Your consent is voluntary. Refusing non-essential cookies does not prevent you from accessing the basic functions of the website or purchasing products, although some optional features may be unavailable.

11. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie banner that allows you to:

• accept all permitted cookies;
• reject non-essential cookies;
• choose individual cookie categories; or
• review additional cookie information.

You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by using the Cookie Settings option available on the website.

Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the consent was withdrawn.

12. Browser Controls

Most web browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through their settings. The exact procedure depends on the browser and device you use.

Blocking all cookies, including strictly necessary cookies, may prevent parts of the website, shopping basket, customer account or checkout from functioning correctly.

For instructions, consult the privacy or cookie settings provided by your browser developer.

13. Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage, pixels, tags or scripts.

These technologies may help us provide website functionality, remember preferences, measure performance or support security. Where required, they are managed according to the same consent rules as cookies.

14. Personal Data and Cookies

Some cookie identifiers and related information may constitute personal data when they can be linked to an identifiable person or device.

For information about how we collect, use, retain and protect personal data, as well as your rights, please read our Privacy Policy.

15. International Data Transfers

Some third-party service providers may process information outside Bulgaria or the European Economic Area.

Where such transfers occur, we require appropriate safeguards in accordance with applicable data protection law, such as an adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards or another legally recognised transfer mechanism.

16. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when we change the cookies, technologies or service providers used on the website, or when legal requirements change.

The latest version will always be published on this page with its revision date.
