What cookies are Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to remember your device and your choices, either for the duration of your visit (session cookies) or across repeat visits (persistent cookies). Related technologies such as scripts and tracking pixels serve similar purposes; this policy covers them all under the word "cookies". ## 2. How we use cookies cybercontrols.io is built on the HubSpot platform, and the cookies set on this site fall into two groups: those strictly necessary for the site to function and to record your consent choices, and analytics cookies that help us understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it. We do not sell personal data, and we do not run third-party advertising cookies on this site. ## 3. The cookies we set **Strictly necessary.** These are required for the site to operate and to remember your cookie choices, and they do not require consent. | Cookie | Typical duration | Purpose | | --- | --- | --- | | \_\_cf\_bm | 30 minutes | Bot protection for the platform serving the site | | \_\_hs\_cookie\_cat\_pref | 6 months | Records which cookie categories you have consented to | | \_\_hs\_opt\_out | 6 months | Remembers that you have declined non-essential cookies | **Analytics.** Set only with your consent via the cookie banner. | Cookie | Typical duration | Purpose | | --- | --- | --- | | \_\_hstc | 6 months | HubSpot's main analytics cookie: visitor identifier, timestamps and visit counts | | hubspotutk | 6 months | Keeps track of a visitor's identity, used to deduplicate contacts on form submission | | \_\_hssc | 30 minutes | Tracks the current session | | \_\_hssrc | Session | Determines whether the visitor has restarted their browser | Durations are typical values set by the platform and may vary slightly as HubSpot updates its services. HubSpot's own description of its cookies is available in the HubSpot knowledge base, and its privacy practices at legal.hubspot.com. ## 4. Your choices On your first visit you are shown a consent banner and nothing beyond the strictly necessary cookies is set until you choose. You can change your mind at any time: reopen the cookie settings from the banner link in the site footer, or delete cookies through your browser, which also lets you block them altogether. Blocking all cookies may affect parts of the site, such as forms remembering who you are. ## 5. Your rights Where cookies involve the processing of personal data, the rights described in our [Privacy Notice](https://www.cybercontrols.io/privacy-notice) apply, including the rights of access, rectification and erasure, and the right to complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk. ## 6. Changes and contact We review this policy whenever the cookies on the site change, and at least annually. Questions about it are welcome at hello@cybercontrols.io.
