What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit our site. Cookies do not allow us to provide services in the most useful and convenient way possible, such as creating a profile, posting an opinion on the site, etc. Also, cookies can be used for site visit information if you have problems using it, for example, page loading errors, etc. Cookies can support your stay on our site by saving your preferences and settings when you visit a particular page, for example saving your username, profile settings, etc.

In the website I use cookies and similar technologies (e.g., pixels and ad tags) to collect data (e.g., device IDs) to recognize you and your device(s) on, off, and across different services and devices where you have engaged with our Services. I also allow some others to use cookies. If you are outside the Designated Countries, I also collect (or rely on others who collect) information about your device where you have not engaged with the Services (e.g., ad ID, IP address, operating system, and browser information) so we can provide the customers with relevant ads and better understand their effectiveness. You can opt-out from the use of data from cookies and similar technologies that track your behavior on the sites of others for ad targeting and other ad-related purposes.

Your Device and Location

The website receives data through cookies and similar technologies. When you visit or leave our Services (including some plugins and our cookies or similar technology on the sites of others), the website receives the URL of both the site you came from and the one you go to and the time of your visit. We also get information about your network and device (e.g., IP address, proxy server, operating system, web browser and add-ons, device identifier and features, cookie IDs and/or ISP, or your mobile carrier). If you use our Services from a mobile device, that device will send us data about your location based on your phone settings. We will ask you to opt in before we use GPS or other tools to identify your precise location.
 

Other Usage

I am improving the Services, which means I get new data and create new ways to use data. The website Services are dynamic, and I often introduce new features, which may require the collection of new information. If I collect materially different personal data or materially change how we collect, use, or share your data, I will notify you and may also modify this Privacy Policy.

How We Use Your Data

They will have access to your information as reasonably necessary to perform these tasks on my behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for other purposes.

 

Legal Disclosures

 

I may need to share your data when I believe it’s required by law or to help protect the rights and safety of you, me, or others. It is possible that I will need to disclose information about you when required by law, subpoena, or other legal process or if I have a good faith belief that disclosure is reasonably necessary to (1) investigate, prevent, or take action regarding suspected or actual illegal activities or to assist government enforcement agencies; (2) enforce our agreements with you; (3) investigate and defend ourselves against any third-party claims or allegations; (4) protect the security or integrity of our Services (such as by sharing with companies facing similar threats); or (5) exercise or protect the rights and safety of kristinageorgieva-designs.com, my Members, personnel or others. I attempt to notify Members about legal demands for their personal data when appropriate in my judgment, unless prohibited by law or court order or when the request is an emergency. I may dispute such demands when I believe, in my discretion, that the requests are overbroad, vague, or lack proper authority, but we do not promise to challenge every demand.

Other Important Information

Security
 

I monitor for and try to prevent security breaches. Please use the security features available through my Services. I implement security safeguards designed to protect your data, such as HTTPS. I regularly monitor my systems for possible vulnerabilities and attacks. However, I cannot warrant the security of any information that you send us. There is no guarantee that data may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of my physical, technical, or managerial safeguards. 

 

Cross-Border Data Transfers

I store and use your data outside your country. I process data both inside and outside of Bulgaria and rely on legally-provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders. Countries where I process data may have laws that are different from, and potentially not as protective as, the laws of your own country.

Lawful Bases for Processing


I will only collect and process personal data about you where I have lawful bases. Lawful bases include consent (where you have given consent), contract (where processing is necessary for the performance of a contract with you (e.g., to deliver the Services you have requested), and “legitimate interests.” 
Where I rely on your consent to process personal data, you have the right to withdraw or decline your consent at any time and where I rely on legitimate interests, you have the right to object. 

Direct Marketing and Do Not Track Signals

I currently do not share personal data with third parties for their direct marketing purposes without your permission.
