Cookie Policy
Last updated: September 2026 · 8bound UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Berlin
1. Introduction
Our website 8bound.com uses cookies and similar technologies such as local storage and tracking pixels. Some are set by us directly, others by third-party services we embed. This page explains what we use, why, and how you can manage your preferences.
2. What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file placed in your browser when you visit a website. It allows the site — or an embedded third-party service — to recognise your browser on future visits. We also use local storage, which works similarly but stores data directly in your browser without an automatic expiry date.
3. What scripts and pixels do we use?
In addition to cookies, some of our tracking services use JavaScript snippets that run in your browser and may send data to third-party servers. The LinkedIn Insight Tag, for example, works partly through a tracking pixel — a tiny invisible image that registers your visit.
4. Cookies we place
Essential — always active
8bound.com (preference storage)
We store your cookie consent choice and language preference directly in your browser's local storage. This is essential for the site to remember your settings across visits. No data is sent to any external server.
Cal.com (booking widget)
Our contact and booking pages embed a scheduling widget from Cal.com. This widget sets session cookies required for the booking flow to work. For more information, see the Cal.com privacy policy.
Analytics — consent required
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to measure how visitors use our website — including which pages they visit, how long they stay, and where they come from. Data is retained for up to 2 years. For more information, see the Google privacy policy.
Microsoft Clarity
Microsoft Clarity records anonymised session replays and generates heatmaps to help us identify usability issues on the site. Data is retained for up to 1 year. For more information, see the Microsoft Clarity privacy policy.
Leadfeeder
Leadfeeder identifies the companies visiting our website by matching IP addresses against business databases. Individual visitors are not identified — only the organisation. Data is retained for up to 2 years. For more information, see the Leadfeeder privacy policy.
HubSpot
We use HubSpot to track contact interactions and form submissions in our CRM. When you fill out a contact form, HubSpot links your activity to a contact record. Data is retained for up to 13 months. For more information, see the HubSpot privacy policy.
Marketing — consent required
LinkedIn Insight Tag
We use the LinkedIn Insight Tag to track conversions from our LinkedIn advertising campaigns and to build retargeting and lookalike audiences. Data sharing: LinkedIn. For more information, see the LinkedIn privacy policy.
5. Managing your consent
When you first visit our website, we show you a banner where you can accept all cookies or customise your preferences by category. You can change your settings at any time by clicking "Customize" in the cookie banner at the bottom of the page. Your choice is saved for 365 days. If you clear your browser cookies, the banner will reappear on your next visit.
6. Your rights
Under the GDPR and German TTDSG, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, request access to or deletion of your personal data, and lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — for example the Berliner Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit. For data requests, contact us at info@8bound.com. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.
