We use the following types of cookies on our website:

Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for you to browse our websites and use the features.

Marketing and Advertising

In accordance with the Digital Advertising Alliance Principles, FocusBox may work with third party advertisers that use cookies and similar technologies to provide more relevant advertising about our services on our website and across the internet.

To provide this `interest-based advertising`, the parties combine non-personal data about your online activities acquired over time which helps cater advertising that we deliver to you.

Examples of this may include a FocusBox advertisement on a Facebook page, or a Google-owned page such as a search results page or YouTube, or on a site within Google`s advertising network. We do not share your data as part of this process.

If you have opted out of receiving communications from us, we will not use your email for interest-based advertising, although you may still be subject to certain interest based advertising depending upon your browser and device settings.

Data Storage

FocusBox uses third party vendors and hosting partners to provide the necessary hardware, software, networking, storage, and related technology required to run FocusBox and its websites and services. Although FocusBox owns the code, databases, and all rights to the FocusBox application, you retain all rights to your data.

Any personal data transferred to us over the internet is protected with Secure Sockets Layer / Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS) Encryption Certificate technology. This ensures that all personal data transferred is encrypted to prevent eavesdropping and tampering.

Our retention of your information

FocusBox retains personal data for as long as necessary to provide our services or for other essential purposes such as complying with our legal obligations, resolving disputes and enforcing our agreements.
