Our privacy policy
This cookie policy is complementary to our privacy policy, which you can find here: privacy policy.
Why do we use cookies?
There are different types of cookies that are used for specific purposes or functionality. We use cookies for these purposes:
- To let our website function correctly (”functional cookies”), some of which are essential
- To analyze your behavior in both aggregated and non-aggregated ways (”analytical cookies”)
- To promote our products (”marketing cookies” and “marketing conversion tracking cookies”)
- To show you 3rd-party content (”social media cookies”)
How can I configure my cookies and consent?
When you visit our website in a jurisdiction where opt-in is required, you will be asked to configure your consent preferences on your first visit. No non-essential cookies will be set without consent.
In the footer of our website, you can find a button to view and change your consent at all time.
Consent record
Our consent manager stores values to determine which cookies can be set, which 3rd-party scripts can be loaded, and which data processing can be done.
This record is saved together with an order, user or other stored information.
We use this record to determine your consent for future actions, like if we can send you marketing emails and if we can use your personal data for analytical purposes.
We will refer to the values in the Consent Record in this document, using consentRecord.services.
Functional cookies
bubblyLocale (essential)
Summary: Redirecting the user to the BubblyDoo website in the correct locale.
This is the locale of the website in ISO 639-1 code. For example, nl-BE, es-ES, etc.
This is used to redirect the user to the correct locale when a domain name has multiple locales.
Our server will first guess your locale based on your Accept-Language header, and set the bubblyLocale cookie accordingly.
For example, when a user with an English-language phone goes to bubblydoo.be, we don’t know if we should redirect them to bubblydoo.be/fr or bubblydoo.be/nl. When the user has accessed bubblydoo.be/fr before, they will have a bubblyLocale cookie set to fr-BE, and we know we can redirect them to bubblydoo.be/fr. If it’s not set, it will default to bubblydoo.be/nl.
This cookie is set on all BubblyDoo domains to make adding new locales/dialects to existing domains possible.
