Cookies Notice

LAST UPDATED: May 25, 2022

1. What is a Cookie?

Cookies are small bits of data we store on the device (computer, mobile phone, tablet or any other mobile device) that you use to access any of the CUBES websites (the Sites), so we can recognize repeat users. Each cookie expires after a certain period of time depending on what we use it for.

In our Cookies Notice, we use the word “cookies” as a catchall term to include not only cookies, but also other technologies such as pixels, web beacons and page tags. Like most commercial websites we use cookies on CUBES web pages.

We use cookies for several reasons. Below we list and describe the various types of cookies we use on our Site.

2. What Cookies Do We Use?

Below we list the different types of cookies that may be used on the Sites. Section 7 includes detailed lists of cookies used on each of our Sites which include information about type of cookie, expiry periods and links to third party sites where applicable.

The Sites use both first party cookies (which are set by the Sites being visited) and third party cookies (which are set by a server located outside the domain of our Sites).

3. Required Cookies

(Example: a cookie used for login authentication)

Certain cookies are necessary in order for the Sites and Services to operate correctly and remain secure, to ensure essential functionality, to measure and analyze site traffic at the aggregate level and to stabilize the Sites. Often these cookies are set in response to a request for service or functionality made by you. We have to load required cookies for legitimate interests pursued by us in delivering essential functionality of our Sites and Services to you and your respondents.

4. Functional Cookies

(Example: a cookie that stores your language preference)

These cookies collect information about your choices and preferences, and collect information about your use of the Sites and Services which enable us to improve functionality. For example, these cookies show us which are the most frequently visited pages on the Sites, allow us to present the Sites according to the settings you selected, help us record any difficulties you have with the Sites, and show us whether our advertising is effective or not. In some cases these cookies allow us to see the overall patterns of usage on the Sites, rather than the usage of a single person (except where that is part of the necessary function of the cookie).

5. Advertising Cookies

(Example: cookies set from domains corresponding to our marketing affiliates, like ads.linkedin.com or bing.com or facebook.com)

We may use cookies to market our services to you on third party websites or to measure and track the effectiveness of our marketing efforts so that we can tailor our advertising more effectively.

We also contract with third party advertising networks that may collect IP addresses and other information from web beacons on our websites, emails, and on third party websites. Ad networks follow your online activities over time by collecting website navigational information through automated means, including through the use of cookies. They use this information to provide advertisements about products and services that may be of interest to you. You may see these advertisements on other websites. 

6. How Do I Manage Cookies?

Users in some locations can manage their cookie preferences and withdraw consent to use of certain cookies within our cookie banner. Users outside these locations can remove or disable cookies within their browser settings. The settings and steps for managing cookies vary by browser, so we suggest referring to your browser’s documentation. For more information see our Help Center article here. One important note is that if you do go this route, this might adversely impact your ability to use our services effectively.
