Crossbeam Cookie Notice

Last Updated: 05-09-23

Crossbeam uses cookies, web beacons, and other technologies (collectively referred to herein as “Cookies”) when you use our websites and services that link to this Notice (the “Services”).

This Notice explains what Cookies are, why we use them, and how you can manage their use.

If you do not wish to accept the use of Cookies please disable them by following the instructions below in this Notice or changing your browser settings so that Cookies cannot be placed on your computer or mobile device. Disabling certain Cookies (e.g., Strictly Necessary Cookies) may render the Services inaccessible in whole, or in part.

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are automatically downloaded to your computer or device when you visit a website. Cookies send data back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or share data with other websites that recognize that cookie. 

Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device over time. They can be used for lots of different activities, such as letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, personalizing your online experience, and generally improving the user experience. They can also help to ensure that the advertisements you see as you browse the web are more relevant to you and your interests. 

We use Cookies to remember some details about visitors to our Services, including but not limited to your general location, the way you reached the Services, and language or other settings preferences. We also rely on information obtained from Cookies to perform ongoing analysis and improve the Crossbeam Services and our services, and to tailor our content to your interests. We may use both first-party Cookies, as set by us, and third-party Cookies, set by our partners and vendors.

Pixels (also referred to as web beacons, clear GIFs, or pixel tags) are transparent images used in tandem with Cookies that enable us, our vendors, or other business partners to record your actions as you use the Services. We use these to count and track Services visitors who have visited certain pages, to perform ongoing analysis, to improve our Services, and for other statistical purposes.

There are five different types of Cookies we use: 

Some Cookies operate only from the time you visit our Services to the end of that particular web-browsing session. These Cookies expire and are automatically deleted when you close your internet browser. These Cookies are called “session” Cookies.
 
Some Cookies will stay on your device between browsing sessions — they do not expire when you close your browser, so that your choices and preferences can be remembered between sessions. These Cookies are called “persistent” Cookies. The length of time a persistent cookie stays on your device varies from cookie to cookie.

Please note that third parties (including for example, advertising networks and providers of external sites like web traffic analytics) may also use Cookies on our Services to assist us in our analytics and advertising activities. 

There are a number of ways you can manage what Cookies are set on your devices. As explained above, however, strictly necessary Cookies cannot be disabled. If you block certain Cookies, the Services may not be accessible to you and/or the performance, features, or Services may not function in their intended way. 

All cookies: You can also exercise your preference to receive all types of Cookies by managing them from your web browser. As the means by which to activate or deactivate Cookies varies from one web browser to another, you should visit your web browser’s help menu for more information on Cookie preferences. You can also configure your browser at any time to be notified of the receipt of a Cookie, so that you can decide whether you want to accept it or not. At the moment, it is technically impossible for you to synchronize your Cookies settings between your browsers and your devices (e.g., your computer or your smartphone). You must therefore set them on each browser/device that you currently use and each time you use a new browser or device.

If you are located in the European Union or United Kingdom, you can also manage cookies through our Cookies Preferences tool available as a link on the footer of our website called One Trust.

Targeting cookies: If you are interested in more information about tailored online advertising and how you can generally control Cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link, the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link, or Your Online Choices to opt-out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs.

If you have any questions about how we use Cookies, you can contact Crossbeam by emailing privacy@crossbeam.com.
