Introduction
Thracia Advisory OOD ("Thracia Advisory", "we", "us", or "our") takes your privacy seriously and is committed to protecting your personal information.

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide when you interact with our website or communicate with us, which may include your name, email address, phone number, country of residence, and any details you share regarding your residency or investment objectives.
We use this information to:

Data Sharing and Disclosure
We may share your personal information with third parties in the following circumstances:
- With your consent — where you have given us explicit permission to share your information;
- Service providers — we may engage third parties to perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting, email delivery, data analysis, and, where relevant to your case, regulated Bulgarian fund managers, legal correspondents, or government authorities involved in processing your application. These providers may access your personal information only to the extent necessary and are obligated to keep it confidential;
- Legal requirements — we may disclose personal information where required by Bulgarian or EU law, or where necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights, or defend against legal claims; and
