This Cookie Policy describes the different types of cookies and similar technologies that may be applied on https://PrivacyProficient.com (a “Site”) of Privacy Proficient, Inc. or its affiliates (which operates the Privacy Proficient website and Privacy Proficient platform).

We may change this Cookie Policy at any time. Please take a look at the “Effective Date” legend at the top of this page to see when this Cookie Policy was last revised. Any changes in this Cookie Policy will become effective when we make the revised Cookie Policy available on or through the Site.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are a standard feature of websites that allow us to store small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to the Site. Cookies help us to learn which areas of the Site are useful and which areas need improvement.

You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings on your browser. However, if you disable this function, your experience on the Site may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.

What Cookies Do We Use?

Below we list the different types of cookies that may be used on the Site. To the extent any Personal Information is collected through cookies, the Privacy Policy applies and complements this Cookie Policy.

The Site uses both 1st party cookies (which are set by the Site being visited) and 3rd party cookies (which are set by a server located outside the domain of the Site).

Strictly Necessary (Essential) Cookies. Essential cookies enable you to navigate the Site and to use its services and features.  Without these absolutely necessary cookies, the Site will not perform as smoothly for you as we would like it to and we may not be able to provide the Site or certain services or features.

Functionality/Performance Cookies. Performance cookies collect information about your choices and preferences and allow us to remember language or other local settings and customize the Site accordingly.  

Analytics/Customization Cookies. Analytics cookies collect information about your use of the Site, and enable us to improve the way it works. For example, analytics cookies show us which are the most frequently visited pages on the Site, help us record any difficulties you have with the Site, and let us know from where our website traffic originates. This allows us to see overall patterns of usage on the Site, rather than the usage of a single person. We use the information to analyze the Site traffic, but we do not examine this information for individually identifying information.

Targeting/Advertising Cookies. Advertising cookies are set to display and manage targeted promotions or notices of our services based on your interests on the Site. To fulfill this function, these cookies collect information about your activities on this and other sites. We only use these cookies to promote our own services, such as relevant subscription plans and informative webinars. We do not run advertisements for external parties.

Cookies can be viewed by submitting this page to https://www.cookieserve.com/

How Do I Manage Cookies?

In addition to the options provided above, you may refuse or accept cookies from the Site at any time by activating settings on your browser.  Information about the procedure to follow in order to enable or disable cookies can be found on your Internet browser provider’s website via your help screen.

Some Privacy Proficient-branded web pages might be powered by third-party vendors.  The content there is ours, but the underlying pages are powered by the vendor. Each vendor will have it’s own Cookie Policy, which means that cookie selections you make on our Site will not carry through to the Privacy Proficient-branded pages of another site. If you see a pop-up asking you to make cookie selections you have already made on our home page, that is the reason.
