Cookie Policy
Last updated: June 15, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Ibex Insights uses cookies and similar technologies on ibexinsights.co and our free public data tool, what each one does, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies — such as pixels, tags, local storage, and software development kits (SDKs) — work in a comparable way. We use the word “cookies” in this policy to refer to all of these technologies. They let a site remember your actions and preferences and help us understand how our site is used.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies to operate ibexinsights.co, to remember choices you make (such as dismissing this banner), to measure traffic and how visitors interact with our pages, and to support our marketing and advertising on professional networks. Our free public data tool sets only the minimal storage needed to run in your browser; it does not profile individual students.
3. Cookies & tags we set
The table below lists the main categories of cookies and tags used on this site.
| Provider / Cookie | Purpose | Type & duration |

Google Tag Manager / Google Analytics (GTM-WWDXWMWF, _ga, _ga_*) | Loads our measurement tags and counts visits, sessions, and aggregate site usage so we can improve the site. | Analytics · up to 2 years |
LinkedIn Insight Tag (li_*, UserMatchHistory, bcookie) | Measures the performance of our LinkedIn campaigns and lets us reach relevant higher-education professionals. | Marketing · up to 2 years |
Ibex preferences (ibex-cookie-consent, local storage) | Remembers that you have seen and responded to the cookie notice so it is not shown on every visit. | Essential · persistent (until you clear it) |
Third-party cookies are set by the providers named above under their own privacy policies: Google and LinkedIn.
4. Legal basis & your consent
Essential cookies are used on the basis of our legitimate interest in providing a working website. For analytics and marketing cookies we rely on your consent where required by the EU/UK ePrivacy rules and GDPR. The notice that appears when you arrive describes the cookies we use; you can change your browser settings at any time to refuse or delete cookies, as described below. For details of how we handle the personal data these technologies may involve, and your rights, see our Privacy Policy.
5. Managing & disabling cookies
You are in control of cookies. Most browsers let you view, block, and delete cookies through their settings, and to browse in a private/incognito mode. You can also opt out of interest-based advertising through the providers above or through industry tools such as the DAA and Your Online Choices (EU). Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the site work.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our site, the tools we use, or the law change. We will revise the “Last updated” date above when we do. Material changes will be highlighted on the site where appropriate.
