Cookies

Cookies set in a visitor’s browser by HubSpot

The HubSpot tracking code sets a series of tracking cookies when a visitor accesses the website. These cookies fall into two general categories:

Essential/necessary cookies: essential cookies that do not require consent.
Consent cookies: cookies included in the GDPR consent banner.

Essential/necessary cookies

__hs_opt_out
This cookie is used by the opt-in privacy policy to remember not to ask the visitor to accept cookies again. This cookie is set when you give visitors the opportunity to opt out for cookies.
(Expires: 13 months)

__hs_do_not_track
This cookie can be set to prevent the tracking code from sending any information to HubSpot. Setting this cookie is different from denying cookies because it still allows anonymized information to be sent to HubSpot.
(Expires: 13 months)

hs_ab_test
This cookie is used to consistently serve visitors the same version of an A/B test page they have previously viewed.
(Expires: end of session)

(Expires: 1 year)

Consent banner cookies

__hstc

Whenever HubSpot changes the session cookie, this cookie is also set to determine if the visitor has restarted the browser. If this cookie does not exist when HubSpot manages cookies, it is considered a new session.
(Expires: end of session)

messagesUtk
This cookie is used to recognize visitors who communicate through the messaging tool. If the visitor leaves the site before being added as a contact, they will have this cookie associated with their browser. If you chat with a visitor who later returns to the site in the same cooked browser, the messaging tool will load their conversation history.
(Expires: 13 months)

Ad tracking

If you use HubSpot’s ad tool to select and install the Facebook pixel on pages with the HubSpot tracking code, HubSpot will link the placement of that pixel with the cookie notification banner. If you require denying consent through this banner, the Facebook pixel will not be able to set cookies on a visitor until they opt out.

If you have manually placed the pixel code in the pages (for example, by editing the HTML site header), HubSpot will not be able to control which Facebook visitors are able to set cookies.

For more information, see the Facebook business tools terms and the Facebook cookie opt-in guide.

Cookies from third party systems

HubSpot cannot control the cookies placed by third-party scripts on the website. When a visitor accepts cookies through the HubSpot consent banner, they accept only HubSpot cookies. However, you can put code in place to know when a user has accepted or declined HubSpot’s cookie tracking, and then send that information to the third-party system. Learn more about using the HubSpot consent banner for third-party scripts.

Other information

Learn about removing cookies created by the HubSpot tracking code that are included in the GDPR consent banner. When a visitor’s cookies are removed, the visitor will be considered “new” and will see the cookie banner the next time they visit the website.

Visitors who visited the website before the cookie policy banner was created will already have the cookies created by the HubSpot tracking code in their browser. Therefore, they will not see the cookie policy

4. International transfer of information

International transfers within HubSpot entities

Information collected by HubSpot is stored and processed in Ireland and the USA.

This privacy policy will apply even if we transfer personal information to other countries. HubSpot has taken appropriate safeguards to ensure that your personal information remains protected. HubSpot has standard contractual data protection clauses, which have been approved by the European Commission and are based on bilateral agreements on the protection of personal data – EU-U.S. and Swiss-U.S. Privacy Shield Frameworks.

Privacy Shield Notice

HubSpot participates in and has certified the EU-US agreement. Privacy Shield Framework and Switzerland – USA Privacy Shield Framework. The following affiliated entities comply with the Privacy Shield principles: HubSpot Ireland Limited, HubSpot Germany GmbH, HubSpot France S.A.S, HubSpot Australia Pty Ltd, HubSpot Asia Pte. Ltd., HubSpot Latin America S.A.S and HubSpot Japan KK. HubSpot is publicly committed to subjecting all personal data received from European Union (EU) member countries and Switzerland, subject to the Privacy Shield Framework, to the applicable Principles of the Framework. To learn more about the Privacy Shield Framework, visit the US Department of Commerce Privacy Shield List at https://www.privacyshield.gov.

5. Cookies and similar technologies

h4l, through HubSpot technologies uses cookies or similar technologies (such as web beacons) to analyze trends, administer the site, track user movements around the website, and collect demographic information about our user base overall. To learn more about how we use cookies on our website and how we manage your cookie preferences, see our Cookie Policy.

What types of cookies do we use and how do we use them?

The specific types of third-party cookies served by our website and the purposes they serve.

  • Essential web cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website
  • Performance and functionality cookies: these cookies are used to improve the performance and functionality of the website, but are not essential for their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionalities may become unavailable.
  • Analytics and personalization cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is used, how effective our marketing campaigns are or to help us personalize the website for you.
  • Advertising cookies: these cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions such as preventing the same ad from appearing again and again, ensuring that ads are displayed correctly for advertisers and, in some cases, selecting ads that are based on your interests.
  • Social network cookies: these cookies are used to allow you to share pages and content that you find interesting on our website through third party social networks and other websites. These cookies can also be used for advertising purposes.
What about other tracking technologies like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We use a software technology called transparent GIFs (e.g. Web Beacons / Web Bugs), which help us manage the website better by letting us know what content is effective. Transparent GIFs are tiny images with a unique identifier, similar to the function of cookies, and are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the user’s computer hard drive, transparent GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages or in e-mails and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We use GIFs or transparent pixels in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been opened by recipients. This allows us to evaluate the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. We link the information collected by transparent GIFs in emails to our customers’ personal information.

Protection of personal data - Seventh Sense

In order to optimize the experience you have in the digital communication environments used by h4l.ro, we have implemented the Seventh Sense application, which works as an addon of HubSpot. This system involves a number of activities, which we explain below:

1. Information we collect

Seventh Sense mines your existing engagement data to build profiles for each person who has engaged with your company and automatically discovers the ideal time and frequency to contact each individual.

We automatically generate and store certain information whenever you interact with the Service. Such information may include your account ID, IP address, domain server, and Internet browser type. This information helps us, among other things, analyze trends and administer the Service.

2. Cookies, web beacons and other technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies such as web beacons, tags and JavaScript alone or in conjunction with cookies to compile information about your use of our websites and interaction with emails from us.

When you visit our websites, our servers or an authorized third party may place a cookie in your browser that may collect information, including personal data, about your online activities over time and across different sites. Cookies allow us to track overall usage, determine the areas you prefer, make your use easier by recognizing you and providing you with a personalized experience.

We use both session-based and persistent cookies. Session cookies exist only during a session and disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer or device after you close your browser or turn off your computer. You can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level, but if you choose to disable cookies, this may limit the use of certain features or functions on our sites or services. To opt-out of being tracked by Google Analytics, please use the specific opt-out mechanism as indicated below.

We also use web beacons on our websites. For example, we may place web beacons in marketing emails that notify us when you click on a link in the email that directs you to one of our websites. Such tracking technologies are used to operate and improve our websites and email communications and to track when links are clicked or emails are opened.

The following describes how we use different categories of cookies and similar technologies, as well as information about your options to manage your settings for data collection through these technologies:

  • Necessary cookies: Necessary cookies allow you to browse our websites and use their features, such as accessing secure areas of the websites.

As necessary cookies are essential for the operation of websites, there is no option to opt out of these cookies.
  • Functionality cookies: Functionality cookies allow us to remember information you have entered or choices you have made (such as your username, language or region) and provide you with enhanced, more personal features. These cookies collect information about how our websites are used, including which pages are viewed most often. We may use our own or third-party technology to track and analyze usage and volume of statistical information to provide improved interactions and more relevant communications and to track the performance of our advertisements. To manage the use of functional cookies on our websites, see your individual browser settings for cookies. Note that opting out may affect the functionality you receive when using our websites.

3. How we share the information we collect

We may share your personal data with the following recipients:

  • Our contracted service providers who provide services such as IT and system administration and hosting, authentication, credit card processing, research and analytics, marketing, customer support and data enrichment.
  • In individual cases, we may also share Personal Data with professional advisers who act as joint processors or controllers, including lawyers, bankers, auditors and insurers.
  • If we are involved in a merger or reorganization, sell a website or business unit, or if all or part of our business, assets or stock is acquired by another company, we may transfer some or all of your data with personal character to such third party. In accordance with applicable laws, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such transfer of personal data to an unaffiliated third party because the processing of your personal data will be necessary for the purposes set out in the “Purpose for which we process personal data and on which legal grounds” section above.
  • For legal compliance. We may disclose your information if we are required to do so by law or if necessary to investigate fraud, a violation of our Terms of Use in connection with any harm caused to a third party or their rights.

Your personal data may be collected, transferred and stored by us in the United States and by our affiliates in other countries where we operate.

Therefore, your personal data may be processed outside the EEA and in countries that are not subject to an adequacy decision of the European Commission and that may not provide the same level of data protection as in the EEA. In this case, we will ensure that such a recipient provides an adequate level of protection, for example by concluding standard contractual clauses for the transfer of data, as approved by the European Commission (Art. 46 GDPR), or we will require prior consent for such international data transfers.

Privacy Shield Notice

We outsource the hosting of our production infrastructure to leading cloud infrastructure providers. We primarily use Amazon Web Services (AWS), which provides industry-leading levels of physical and network security. Currently, our AWS cloud server instances are located in US locations. Facility uptime is guaranteed between 99.95% and 100%, and facilities provide minimum N+1 redundancy for all power, network and HVAC services.

5. Storage of personal data

We may retain your personal data for a period of time consistent with the original purpose of collection. We determine the appropriate period of retention of personal data based on the amount, nature and sensitivity of your personal data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, and whether we can achieve the purposes of the processing by other means, as well as applicable legal requirements ( such as applicable statutes of limitations).

After the retention periods expire, your personal data will be deleted. If there is information that, for technical reasons, we cannot completely delete from our systems, we will put in place appropriate measures to prevent any further use of the data.

6. Preferences for Marketing Communications

If we process your personal data for the purpose of sending you marketing communications, you can manage the receipt of marketing and non-transactional communications from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of our marketing emails, replying or sending messages. “STOP” if you receive SMS communications or turn off push notifications from our apps on your device. Additionally, you can unsubscribe here or by contacting us using the information in the “Contact Us” section.
