Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how The Prosper Group LLC (“The Prosper Group,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on theprospergroup.org (the “Site”). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include pixels, local storage, and scripts that help a site function, measure performance, or support marketing features. In this Policy, we refer to these collectively as “cookies.”

2. How We Use Cookies

We use cookies to:

• Remember your cookie preferences
• Support accessibility features
• Understand how visitors use the Site (analytics)
• Enable optional marketing / visitor-recognition tools when you consent
• Deliver embedded video content when you choose to play a video

3. Cookie Categories

Necessary / Functional

These cookies or tools are used to provide core Site functionality and accessibility features. They are not used for advertising analytics. Because accessibility tooling helps visitors use the Site, our accessibility widget is not blocked behind the consent banner; it is disclosed here and in our Privacy Policy.

• Cookie consent preference — stored locally in your browser (localStorage) so we remember your Accept / Reject / Customize choices
• accessiBe — accessibility widget that allows visitors to adjust Site presentation for accessibility needs (Functional / Accessibility)

Analytics

These cookies help us understand Site traffic and usage so we can improve content and experience. They load only if you accept analytics cookies (or Accept All).

• Google Analytics 4 (GA4) — Measurement ID G-13SH6C4TFD; used for aggregated traffic and engagement insights. Provider: Google LLC.

Marketing

These tools may help identify business visitors or support marketing insights. They load only if you accept marketing cookies (or Accept All).

• Visual Visitor (Smart Recognition / Smart Visitor ID) — business visitor recognition technology delivered via data.processwebsitedata.com

Embedded content (on interaction)

Some third-party content loads only when you actively interact with it:

• Vimeo — FAQ and thank-you videos. The Vimeo player is loaded when you play a video. Where supported, we enable Vimeo’s “do not track” setting so Vimeo does not track playback for its own analytics purposes. Provider: Vimeo.com, Inc.

4. Managing Your Preferences

On your first visit, you will see a cookie banner with the options:

• Accept All — allows analytics and marketing cookies
• Reject Non-Essential — allows only necessary/functional tools
• Customize — choose analytics and/or marketing individually, then save

You can reopen these preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the Site footer.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

5. How Long Cookies Last

Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain for a set period or until you delete them. Our consent preference is stored in your browser’s local storage until you clear it or update your choice. Third-party cookies (such as Google Analytics) follow the retention periods set by those providers.

6. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy when our tools or practices change. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the latest revision.
