Cookie Policy

    Information about how we use cookies and similar technologies.

    Humanity In Business Solutions Ltd

    Effective: June 2026 | Applies to: humanityinbusiness.com and intelligence.humanityinbusiness.com

    Scope of this Policy

    This Cookie Policy applies to both the Humanity In Business Solutions marketing website (humanityinbusiness.com) and the HIBS assessment platform (intelligence.humanityinbusiness.com). Where cookies differ between the two properties, this is clearly indicated. Essential cookies and storage are always active and do not require consent. Analytics and visitor-identification technologies are set only with your explicit consent.

    1. What are cookies?

    Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device on return visits and remember information about your session. Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties whose services we use.

    This policy also covers similar technologies including scripts, web beacons, and local storage where these are used for equivalent purposes.

    2. Cookie categories

    We use the following categories of cookies:

    CategoryConsent required?Description
    Essential / FunctionalNoRequired for the website and platform to operate. These include session management, authentication, payment processing, and consent preference storage. Cannot be disabled.
    Statistics / Analytics / TrackingYesHelp us understand engagement and identify the organisations visiting our properties. Set only with your explicit consent.

    3.3 Third-party services

    Google Fonts is loaded from Google's servers to render web fonts. This involves transmission of your IP address to Google. For details see the Google Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy.

    The Apollo tracker (section 3.2) is provided by Apollo.io, a service based in the United States. Where you have consented, using it involves transmission of your IP address and on-site activity to Apollo, which may identify the organisation you are associated with. This constitutes an international transfer of data outside the UK/EEA. For details see Apollo's Privacy Policy at apollo.io/privacy-policy.

    3.4 Cookieless analytics

    We use Vercel Analytics on the marketing website to measure aggregate traffic and page performance. It is cookieless: it sets no cookies, stores no information on your device, uses no persistent identifiers, and does not track you across other sites. Because it does not store or access information on your device, it does not require consent under PECR and runs for all visitors. Provided by Vercel Inc. (United States); see vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy.

    4. Cookies on intelligence.humanityinbusiness.com

    The HIBS assessment platform processes different data from our marketing website. The following cookies are used:

    AI Processing Disclosure

    When you generate a report on the HIBS assessment platform, your assessment responses are transmitted to the Anthropic API for AI-assisted report generation. This transmission is governed by Anthropic's data processing terms. Assessment data transmitted to Anthropic is not used to train AI models. Reports are stored in our Supabase database. For full details of how your assessment data is processed, please refer to our Privacy Policy.

    5. Managing your consent

    When you first visit either of our properties, a cookie banner is displayed. Essential cookies and storage are always active. You may accept or decline optional analytics and visitor-identification cookies using the banner controls.

    You can change your preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the website footer. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before its withdrawal.

    You may also control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling all cookies may affect the functionality of our services, particularly authentication and payment processing on the assessment platform.
