# Cookie Policy | Vodlix **Source:** https://vodlix.com/cookie-policy **Summary:** The cookies and trackers vodlix.com uses and how to change your choice (Cookie Panda records consent). **Publisher:** Vodlix --- ## Cookie Policy This Cookie Policy explains how **Fast OTT Ltd**, trading as **Vodlix** ("we", "us"), uses cookies and similar technologies on vodlix.com, and the choices you have. Read it with our Privacy Policy (vodlix.com/privacy-policy), which explains how we handle the personal data these technologies collect. This policy is ours. **Cookie Panda**, our own consent management platform, is the tool that shows our cookie banner and records your consent; the banner links to this policy. ## 1. What this covers {#1-what-this-covers} This policy covers cookies and similar technologies on **vodlix.com** and our marketing pages. **It does not cover a streaming service run by one of our customers.** If you saw a cookie banner on a service powered by Vodlix, that service's operator decides what is set there. Their cookie notice applies. ## 2. What cookies are {#2-what-cookies-are} Small files stored on your device. We also use similar technologies (localStorage, pixels and tags), and where we say "cookies" we mean all of them. Cookies set on the domain of the website you are visiting are **first-party** cookies, even when a provider's script sets them. Cookies set on another domain, such as an advertising provider's, are **third-party** cookies. **Session** cookies are deleted when you close your browser; **persistent** cookies stay on your device until they expire or you delete them. ## 3. What we use, and your choices {#3-what-we-use-and-your-choices} | Category | What it does | Consent needed? | | --- | --- | --- | | **Strictly necessary** | Sign-in, session security, load balancing, remembering your cookie choices | **No**: the site cannot work without them | | **Preferences** | Remembering a choice you made, such as your currency | **Yes** | | **Analytics** | How the site is used, which pages are useful | **Yes** | | **Advertising** | Measuring our marketing and showing relevant ads | **Yes** | **We do not set analytics or advertising cookies until you consent.** ### 3.1 The cookies we use {#3-1-the-cookies-we-use} The table lists each cookie we use, who provides it, what it does and how long it lasts. We update it whenever we add or remove a service, and after each scan of our site. | Name | Provider | Purpose | Category | Duration | First or third party | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | cp\_subject | Vodlix (Cookie Panda) | Remembers your cookie choices | Strictly necessary | 12 months | First party | | vlx\_currency | Vodlix | Remembers the currency you chose for prices | Preferences | 12 months | First party | | \_\_cf\_bm, \_cfuvid | Cloudflare, on behalf of OpenAI and LinkedIn | Protects those providers' services against bots | Strictly necessary (for the provider) | 30 minutes; session | Third party | | \_ga | Google (Google Analytics 4) | Distinguishes visitors so we can count visits | Analytics | 13 months | First party | | \_ga\_624S1YT8LF | Google (Google Analytics 4) | Keeps the state of your visit for our analytics | Analytics | 13 months | First party | | \_hjSessionUser\_2978872 | Hotjar | Recognizes a returning visitor in our site analytics | Analytics | 12 months | First party | | \_hjSession\_2978872 | Hotjar | Keeps the data of one visit together | Analytics | 30 minutes | First party | | \_gcl\_au | Google (Google Ads) | Measures conversions from our Google ads | Advertising | 90 days | First party | | IDE, test\_cookie | Google (DoubleClick) | Measures and shows Google ads; checks whether cookies can be set | Advertising | 13 months; 15 minutes | Third party | | \_fbp | Meta (Meta pixel) | Measures our ads on Meta's services and helps show relevant ads | Advertising | 90 days | First party | | bcookie, lidc, li\_gc | LinkedIn (Insight Tag) | Measures our LinkedIn ads; stores your LinkedIn cookie choice | Advertising | 12 months; 1 day; 6 months | Third party | | vertex\_aid | Vodlix (Vertex) | Links your visits to vodlix.com with an inquiry you make, in Vertex, our own CRM | Advertising | 13 months | First party | | YSC, VISITOR\_INFO1\_LIVE, VISITOR\_PRIVACY\_METADATA, **Secure-YNID,** Secure-ROLLOUT\_TOKEN | Google (YouTube) | Set by YouTube when an embedded video is shown or played; YouTube uses them to measure views and for advertising | Advertising | Session to 6 months | Third party | We also store a few items in your browser's local storage: Cookie Panda keeps your choice and the vendor list it shows (`__cookiepanda_subject`, `cookiepanda.gvl`, `cookiepanda.atp`), Vertex keeps the page you arrived from and your first visit (`vertex_aid`, `vertex_ft`, `vertex_hs`, `vertex_ld`, `lastExternalReferrer`), and Google Ads keeps its click identifier (`_gcl_ls`). This list is from a scan of vodlix.com on **October 21, 2026**. Durations are the longest we found. ## 4. Managing your choices {#4-managing-your-choices} Use the **cookie banner**: it appears on your first visit and can be reopened at any time from the "Cookie settings" link in the footer. **Refusing is as easy as accepting.** You do not need to change browser settings, and we do not treat browser settings, or continued browsing, as consent. You can withdraw consent at any time. Withdrawal stops future collection; it does not undo what was already collected, though you may ask us to delete that (see our Privacy Policy). We manage this with **Cookie Panda**, our own consent platform, which records your choice and passes it to the services involved. **Browser controls.** You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; your browser's help pages explain how. This works alongside the banner, not instead of it. If you block strictly necessary cookies, parts of the site, such as sign-in, may not work, and the banner may not be able to remember your choice. ## 5. Advertising cookies: what they actually do {#5-advertising-cookies-what-they-actually-do} Because it is not obvious, and our Privacy Policy previously did not say: When you consent to advertising cookies, we may record that you visited from an advertisement and store the associated **click identifier**. If you later become a customer, **we send that identifier back to the advertising platform** so it can attribute the sale to the advert. It is how advertising measurement works, and it only happens with your consent. Withdraw consent to stop it. ### 5.1 Uploads from our servers, not your browser {#5-1-uploads-from-our-servers-not-your-browser} Some of this measurement does not happen in your browser. When you inquire, or later become a customer, our own servers send the result directly to Google, Meta and OpenAI. An upload can contain the click identifier stored against your inquiry, the event (for example, that you signed up) and its value, and identifiers such as your email address in hashed form. Hashing replaces the identifier with a fixed code that the platform can match against its own records. Because these uploads come from our servers, blocking cookies in your browser does not, on its own, stop them. We send them only if you consented to advertising cookies, and we stop when you withdraw that consent or opt out of sale or sharing. ## 6. Third parties {#6-third-parties} Consenting to analytics or advertising means those providers may set their own cookies and receive data including your IP address and pages viewed. We publish the **categories** of provider in our Privacy Policy. **Anyone may ask for the full named list** at privacy@vodlix.com; we answer within **5 business days**, free. The tags that may run on vodlix.com, each only where your choices allow it, are: | Provider | Tag | What it does | | --- | --- | --- | | Google | Google Tag Manager | Loads the other Google tags on our pages | | Google | Google Analytics 4 | Site analytics | | Google | Google Ads | Advertising and conversion measurement | | Meta | Meta pixel | Advertising measurement | | OpenAI | OpenAI advertising tag | Advertising measurement | | Hotjar | Hotjar tracking code | Site analytics: how pages are used | | LinkedIn | LinkedIn Insight Tag | Advertising measurement | | Google | YouTube embedded player | Plays the videos on our pages | | Vodlix | Vertex script | Links your visits to an inquiry you make through a form or a booked meeting, in Vertex, our own CRM | Vertex is our own product, not a third party. We list it here because its script runs on our pages alongside the others. ## 7. How long they last {#7-how-long-they-last} Each cookie's lifetime is in the table in section 3.1. In short: session cookies last until you close your browser, your consent choice lasts **12 months** before we ask again, analytics cookies last up to **13 months**, and advertising cookies up to **13 months**. ## 8. Changes {#8-changes} We may update this policy. Material changes get a new effective date, and we ask for consent again where the change requires it. ## 9.
