Cookie Policy
This policy explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to remember your preferences, and to provide information to the site owners.
Cookies contain a small amount of data and are sent between your browser and the web server on each page request. They cannot execute programs or deliver viruses to your computer, and they do not contain personally identifiable information unless you have provided such information to the website.
Similar technologies — such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage — may also be used alongside cookies and are covered by this policy.
2. How We Use Cookies
CyberPulse uses cookies and similar technologies to:
- Enable essential website functionality and security features

- Personalize your experience and deliver relevant content
- Prevent fraud and enhance the security of our website
- Comply with legal obligations related to cookie consent
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary for our website to function. Without them, core features such as page navigation, secure login, and contact forms would not work. Essential cookies cannot be disabled.
3.2 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting aggregate information. This includes which pages are visited most, how long visitors stay, and any error messages encountered. We use this data to improve our website and user experience.
3.3 Marketing / Advertising Cookies
Marketing cookies track your visits across websites to build a profile of your interests and enable us and our advertising partners to show you relevant advertisements. These cookies do not store directly identifiable personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and device.
3.4 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your preferred language, region, or saved form data) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or live chat.
