Cookie Policy

Last updated: September 20, 2025

At Forumbee, we believe in being transparent about how we use cookies and similar technologies. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which types we use, and how you can manage them. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meaning given in our Privacy Policy.

1. What Is a Cookie?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies can be:

  • Session cookies: removed when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies: stored until they expire or are deleted.
  • First party cookies: set by the site you are visiting.
  • Third party cookies: set by external services, such as analytics providers.

Cookies help websites function properly, improve performance, and remember preferences.

2. Does Forumbee Use Cookies?

Yes. Forumbee uses cookies to operate and improve our websites and services. The types of cookies we use depend on which part of the Forumbee platform you access.

3. Cookies Used in the Forumbee SaaS Application

The Forumbee platform, including communities and the logged in application, uses only essential cookies. These cookies are necessary for:

  • Authentication
  • Security
  • Session management
  • Core functionality of the Service

Because these cookies are strictly necessary to provide the Service, they do not require consent under GDPR and ePrivacy rules.

Forumbee does not use analytics, marketing, or advertising cookies inside the SaaS application.

4. Cookies Used on the Forumbee Marketing Website

Our public marketing website (forumbee.com) uses Google Analytics cookies to help us understand how visitors interact with our site and to improve content and performance.

Google Analytics cookies:

  • Are used only on our public marketing website.
  • Are not used in the SaaS application.
  • Do not include advertising or remarketing features.
  • Are not used by Forumbee for cross site tracking.

Consent Requirements

In jurisdictions where consent is required, such as the EEA and the United Kingdom, analytics cookies should only be used with user permission. We are in the process of implementing additional consent mechanisms for those regions.

You may also opt out of Google Analytics at any time by using your browser settings or by visiting: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout .

5. No Advertising Cookies

Forumbee does not use:

  • Advertising cookies.
  • Tracking pixels for retargeting.
  • Cross site behavioral advertising cookies.
  • Cookies that sell or share personal information as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act.

We do not sell or share personal information for advertising purposes.

6. How to Manage Cookies

Most browsers allow you to control cookies by:

  • Blocking or deleting cookies.
  • Allowing or disallowing cookies on a site by site basis.
  • Clearing site data.

Disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of our SaaS application. You can disable analytics cookies by modifying your browser settings.

Browser specific instructions:

For other browsers, refer to the documentation provided by the browser developer. You may also opt out of Google Analytics using the browser add on linked above.

7. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting. Because a consistent standard has not been established, Forumbee does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals. We continue to monitor developments in this area.
