Cookie Preferences
BoundHive values your privacy and is committed to providing you with clear and transparent information about the cookies and similar technologies we use on our website. This Cookie Preferences page explains what cookies are, how we use them, the choices you have regarding their use, and how you can manage your cookie preferences at any time.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, improve the user experience, and provide reporting information. Cookies can be "session" cookies (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
Alongside cookies, we may also use similar tracking technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage to collect and store information when you interact with our services.
Why We Use Cookies
- Essential cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you make, such as logging in, setting your privacy preferences, or filling in forms.
- Performance and analytics cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited most often, how users move around the site, and if they get error messages. This helps us improve the website’s performance and user experience. For example, we use Google Analytics to analyze usage data in aggregate form.
- Functionality cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences, language settings, or customized content.
- Targeting/advertising cookies: These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites, as well as measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. These cookies do not directly store personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device.
Examples of Cookies and Technologies We Use
- Session cookies: Used to manage your login session and keep you authenticated during your visit.
- Persistent cookies: Used to remember your login and preferences for future visits.
- Third-party cookies: Set by third-party services we use for analytics (like Google Analytics) or for embedded content (like YouTube videos or social media widgets).
- Local storage: Used to store your settings and preferences locally in your browser for a smoother experience.
- Web beacons/pixels: Small graphic files that allow us to monitor website traffic or understand user interactions with emails and pages.
How to Manage Your Cookie Preferences

- Accept all cookies for the full experience.
- Reject all but essential cookies, which are strictly necessary for site operation.
- Customize your choices by enabling or disabling specific categories of cookies (e.g., analytics, advertising, functionality).
Most modern browsers also allow you to control cookies through your browser settings. You can usually:

- Block third-party cookies or block cookies from specific websites.
- Set your browser to automatically delete cookies when you close it.
Note that disabling certain types of cookies may affect your experience on BoundHive, such as limiting access to certain features or requiring you to log in again.

Third-Party Cookies and Technologies
We partner with trusted third parties who may set cookies or similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. These include, for example, analytics providers (Google Analytics), social networks (Facebook, Twitter), and advertising partners. Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties and not BoundHive. We encourage you to review their policies to understand how your information is used.
You can opt out of certain third-party cookies, such as those from Google Analytics, by using their opt-out tools.
How Long Do We Keep Cookies?
The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type. Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you manually delete them. Retention periods for each cookie type are specified in our Cookie Settings panel.
