This policy describes cookies and similar technologies used on the 100 Places Bulgaria Website. It should be read with our Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text records stored by a browser. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, device identifiers, pixels, and consent strings. Some are set by us; others are set by a service provider whose code is allowed to run after your choice.
These technologies operate the consent platform, remember and communicate your privacy choices, provide security, and deliver features you expressly request. Google Privacy & Messaging may store the consent record and IAB TCF/Additional Consent signals. These records cannot be disabled through the preference panel where they are necessary to remember that you refused optional purposes.
After analytics consent, Google Analytics 4 may set identifiers such as _ga and a property-specific _ga_<container-id> record. They distinguish visits and generate aggregated usage and performance reports. Their duration is controlled by the GA4 property and Google’s current product rules; they are not created by our GA4 integration before analytics consent.
After advertising consent, Google AdSense and Travelpayouts may use cookies or similar identifiers to deliver and measure advertising, prevent fraud, limit repetition, and attribute an eligible booking. Whether advertising is personalised depends on the purposes and vendors you approve. Google’s current cookies and durations vary by product, choice, and region and are described in its own notices and in the vendor list shown by the consent platform.
After advertising consent, the Website also stores a random AdSense pilot assignment in sessionStorage under a 100 Places key. It contains only an experiment version and the value “control” or “treatment”, and expires when the browser tab session ends. If analytics is also allowed, a second session record prevents duplicate reporting of that assignment.
Opening a page with a remotely hosted place photograph can request that image from Google Firebase Storage, Wikimedia, or Flickr. Opening an interactive map requests images from OpenStreetMap tile infrastructure. Following an external or affiliate link sends you to another site. Those requests disclose ordinary network data such as your IP address, but cookies on the destination are controlled by that provider and are not Website cookies managed by our preference panel.
On the first applicable visit, the European regulations message offers three choices: consent, do not consent, and manage options. Optional purpose and vendor controls are off by default when you open the manage-options screen. When that message applies and its API is available, the “Privacy and cookie settings” button in every Website footer becomes enabled so you can reopen the message and withdraw or change a choice. The button remains disabled where the European message does not apply or its API is unavailable. Withdrawal prevents new optional site-owned requests; code already downloaded earlier in the same page view cannot always be unloaded, so reload the page after changing your settings if you want a completely fresh session.
You can also delete site data in browser settings or block cookies. Blocking strictly necessary consent storage may cause the message to reappear because the Website cannot remember your choice.
Because providers may change individual names or lifetimes, the live vendor and purpose list in “Manage options” is the authoritative account-specific list for optional advertising technology. Contact contact@100places.bg if you need information about a specific record.
