Cookie Policy

This Policy explains what cookies are, which ones we use on zerodigital.blackdigital.com.br, what they do and how you control what stays active. It complements our Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let a site recognise your browser on later visits, remember preferences and measure how pages are used.

We also use equivalent technologies such as pixels, tags, local storage and device identifiers. In this Policy, "cookies" covers all of them. First-party cookies are set by our own domain; third-party cookies by other domains. Session cookies are deleted when you close the browser; persistent cookies remain for a set period or until you remove them. 

2. Why we use them

  • to keep the Site running correctly and securely;
  • to remember your chosen language (the Site is bilingual) and your cookie preferences;
  • to understand which content and case studies draw the most interest;
  • to measure the performance of campaigns and traffic sources;
  • to fix navigation errors and improve performance.

3. Categories we use

3.1 Strictly necessary

Essential to how the Site works. Without them, basic pages and features stop functioning, so they do not require consent — though you can block them in your browser, accepting that parts of the Site may break.

Cookie Source Purpose Duration
PHPSESSID First-party Identifies the user session on the server Session
cookie_notice_accepted First-party Records your choice in the cookie banner Up to 12 months
wordpress_test_cookie First-party Checks whether the browser accepts cookies Session
wp-settings-* First-party Display preferences for logged-in users Up to 12 months

3.2 Functionality and preferences

Cookie Source Purpose Duration
pll_language First-party (Polylang) Stores the selected language — Portuguese or English 12 months

3.3 Performance and analytics (consent required)

Cookie Source Purpose Duration
_ga Google Analytics Distinguishes unique visitors Up to 24 months
_ga_<ID> Google Analytics 4 Maintains session state Up to 24 months
_gid Google Analytics Distinguishes visitors within a day 24 hours
_gat Google Analytics Throttles request rate 1 minute

The Google Tag Manager container (GTM-MR7XZB36) does not set cookies of its own: it manages when the other tags fire, according to the consent recorded.

3.4 Marketing and advertising (consent required)

Cookie Source Purpose Duration
_gcl_au Google Ads Conversion attribution 90 days
_fbp Meta Measurement and remarketing audiences 90 days
li_sugr, bcookie LinkedIn Insight Tag and B2B campaign measurement Up to 12 months

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by platforms we do not control, each with its own policy: Google (Analytics, Tag Manager, Ads) — policies.google.com/privacy; Meta — facebook.com/privacy/policy; LinkedIn — linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy; scheduling tool — policy available on the booking page.

When you interact with embedded content (video, maps, booking widgets), those third parties may set their own cookies.

5. Managing your preferences

On the Site: on your first visit, a banner presents the consent options. Your choice is stored and can be changed at any time by clearing cookies for this domain and reloading the page, or through the preferences link in the footer.

In your browser: you can block, limit or delete cookies in Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Edge settings.

Direct opt-out: Google Analytics (tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout) and Google Ads settings (adssettings.google.com).

Blocking necessary cookies may break Site functionality. Blocking analytics and marketing cookies does not affect browsing.

6. Browser privacy signals

We honour the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal when your browser sends it, treating it as a refusal of non-essential cookies. The Do Not Track (DNT) signal has no consolidated technical standard, so our primary reference is the choice recorded in the cookie banner.

7. Data collected through cookies

Cookies may collect pseudonymised identifiers, IP address, pages viewed, traffic source, device and browser data. How that data is processed — purposes, legal bases, sharing and retention — is described in our Privacy Policy.

8. Changes to this Policy

Whenever we add, remove or replace tools, this Policy is updated. The date at the top shows the version in force. We recommend reviewing it periodically.
