1. what are cookies and similar technologies?

In Short: Cookies and related technologies help websites remember information and understand how visitors interact with them.

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. They may be set by the website you are visiting (“first-party cookies”) or by another service whose technology appears on that website (“third-party cookies”). Session cookies generally expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until their stated expiration date or until you delete them.

We and our service providers may also use pixels, tags, local storage, scripts, device or browser identifiers, and similar technologies. In this policy, we refer to these technologies together as “cookies.”

2. how do we use cookies?

In Short: We use cookies for website operation, analytics, campaign measurement, attribution, forms, scheduling, and business visitor identification.

We use cookies to:

• keep the website and embedded services working securely;

• understand visits, page usage, traffic sources, and website performance;

• measure whether our advertising campaigns lead to website visits and contact-form submissions;

• remember the first advertising click and campaign associated with a visitor for up to 90 days, so that information can be connected with a later HubSpot form submission;

• operate HubSpot forms and Calendly scheduling experiences; and

• use RB2B to identify business visitors and the companies or organizations associated with website visits, and to understand interest in our services.

Our first-party attribution cookies may store advertising click identifiers and campaign metadata. When a visitor later submits a contact form, those values may be associated with the information the visitor provides in HubSpot. The attribution cookies themselves are not intended to store a visitor’s name, email address, or telephone number.

RB2B cookies may contain identifiers that RB2B uses with other information to identify a business visitor or the visitor’s company. The professional identity and business contact information returned by RB2B may be associated with website activity in our business systems.

3. what categories do we use?

Necessary and functional cookies. These support security, traffic management, forms, scheduling, session continuity, and other website features.

Analytics cookies. These help us understand website traffic, usage, and performance in aggregate.

Attribution and measurement cookies. These help us understand which advertisements and campaigns produce website visits, form submissions, and other conversions. We use them for campaign measurement, not cross-context behavioral advertising.

Business visitor-identification cookies. RB2B uses these cookies to recognize returning visits, maintain sessions, preserve referral information, and identify business visitors and their associated organizations.
