We have implemented appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process.

You should only access the Website within a secure environment.

Accessibility Statement
CigarBoxMarkering.com
March 25, 2022
Issued by
Compliance status
We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the broadest possible audience, regardless of ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you wish to contact the website’s owner please use the following email info@CigarBoxMarketing
Screen-reader and keyboard navigation
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers can read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others.
Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images. It provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts embedded within the image using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with popular screen readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.
Additionally, keyboard users will find content-skip menus available at any time by clicking Alt+2, or as the first element of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, not allowing the focus to drift outside.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Disability profiles supported on our website
Epilepsy Safe Profile: this profile enables people with epilepsy to safely use the website by eliminating the risk of seizures resulting from flashing or blinking animations and risky color combinations.
Vision Impaired Profile: this profile adjusts the website so that it is accessible to the majority of visual impairments such as Degrading Eyesight, Tunnel Vision, Cataract, Glaucoma, and others.
Cognitive Disability Profile: this profile provides various assistive features to help users with cognitive disabilities such as Autism, Dyslexia, CVA, and others, to focus on the essential elements more easily.
ADHD Friendly Profile: this profile significantly reduces distractions and noise to help people with ADHD, and Neurodevelopmental disorders browse, read, and focus on the essential elements more easily.
Blind Users Profile (Screen-readers): this profile adjusts the website to be compatible with screen-readers such as JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack. A screen-reader is installed on the blind user’s computer, and this site is compatible with it.
Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired): this profile enables motor-impaired persons to operate the website using the keyboard Tab, Shift+Tab, and the Enter keys. Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
Additional UI, design, and readability adjustments
Font adjustments – users can increase and decrease its size, change its family (type), adjust the spacing, alignment, line height, and more.
Color adjustments – users can select various color contrast profiles such as light, dark, inverted, and monochrome. Additionally, users can swap color schemes of titles, texts, and backgrounds with over seven different coloring options.
Animations – epileptic users can stop all running animations with the click of a button. Animations controlled by the interface include videos, GIFs, and CSS flashing transitions.
Content highlighting – users can choose to emphasize essential elements such as links and titles. They can also choose to highlight focused or hovered elements only.
Audio muting – users with hearing devices may experience headaches or other issues due to automatic audio playing. This option lets users mute the entire website instantly.
Cognitive disorders – we utilize a search engine linked to Wikipedia and Wiktionary, allowing people with cognitive disorders to decipher meanings of phrases, initials, slang, and others.
Additional functions – we allow users to change cursor color and size, use a printing mode, enable a virtual keyboard, and many other functions.

COOKIE POLICY
Last updated January, 2022
This Cookie Policy explains how CigarBox Marketing.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites or opened an e-mail including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?
Websites may also use so-called “Flash Cookies” (also known as Local Shared Objects or “LSOs”) to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention and for other site operations.
If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to “information” on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).
Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Websites. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS – SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
LAST UPDATED – JANUARY, 2022
CIGARBOX MARKETING has developed and sells digital marketing software for local businesses.

CIGARBOX MARKETING reserves the right to change the subscription fees or applicable charges and to institute new charges and fees, upon thirty (30) days prior notice to the Customer (which may be sent by email). The Customer’s continued use of the Cloud Service after the end of the notice period of the changed subscription fee or charges or new charges or fees constitutes Customer’s consent to the new fees or the changed subscription fee or charges or new charges or fees.
WHEN CUSTOMER REGISTERS FOR A PAID SUBSCRIPTION, CUSTOMER EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (A) CIGARBOX MARKETING (OR OUR THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR) IS AUTHORIZED TO CHARGE CUSTOMER AT THE BEGINNING OF EVERY MONTH OR OTHER PERIODIC BASIS (AS SELECTED BY CUSTOMER VIA THE CIGARBOX MARKETING WEBSITE) FOR CUSTOMER’S SUBSCRIPTION (IN ADDITION TO ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES) FOR AS LONG AS CUSTOMER’S SUBSCRIPTION CONTINUES, AND (B) CUSTOMER’S SUBSCRIPTION IS CONTINUOUS UNTIL CUSTOMER CANCELS IT OR CIGARBOX MARKETING SUSPENDS OR STOPS PROVIDING ACCESS TO THE CLOUD SERVICES IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT.
Subscription license and subscription period
The Customer is granted a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, and non-transferable right to use the Cloud Service in accordance with the Subscription Agreement during the subscription period.
The Subscription Period starts running from the moment the Customer creates a customer profile on CIGARBOX MARKETING’s website.
Unless otherwise specified in the ordering process, the subscription runs until terminated by either party, in accordance with section 4 below.
Termination of the subscription and duties upon termination
The Customer may terminate the Subscription Agreement at any time and without justification with 30-days written notice to CIGARBOX MARKETING.
For paid subscriptions, Customer may cancel its subscription at any time upon thirty (30) days prior notice by logging into Customer’s profile and following the instruction to cancel. Customer will be responsible for all charges (including applicable taxes and other charges) incurred with respect to fees processed prior to the cancellations of Customer’s paid rolling subscription. Customer will not receive a refund for any partial month or any renewal that occurs during the thirty-day notice period.
From time to time, to the extent legally permitted, CIGARBOX MARKETING may offer free or reduced rate promotional trials of certain paid premium subscriptions for specified periods of time without payment or for a reduced promotional price. If CIGARBOX MARKETING offers Customer a free or promotional trial, the specific terms of the free or promotional trial will be provided in the marketing materials describing the particular trial, during the online registration process when the code for the trial is entered on the CIGARBOX MARKETING operated websites.
ONCE THE FREE OR PROMOTIONAL TRIAL ENDS, CUSTOMER AUTHORIZES CIGARBOX MARKETING (OR OUR THIRD-PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR) TO BEGIN CHARGING CUSTOMER’S DESIGNATED PAYMENT METHOD ON A RECURRING BASIS FOR CUSTOMER’S SUBSCRIPTION (PLUS ANY APPLICABLE TAXES AND OTHER CHARGES) FOR AS LONG AS THE SUBSCRIPTION CONTINUES, UNLESS CUSTOMER CANCELS THE SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE END OF THE FREE OR PROMOTIONAL TRIAL OR OTHERWISE CANCELS THE SUBSCRIPTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION.
CIGARBOX MARKETING may not terminate the Subscription Agreement during the 30-day refund period pursuant to the terms and conditions for the purchase, unless; 1) CIGARBOX MARKETING offers another solution with similar capabilities, or 2) the Customer is in material breach of the Subscription Agreement pursuant to clause 10 below.
On the expiry of the return period, the Subscription Agreement may be terminated by CIGARBOX MARKETING with three month’s prior notice (current + three months), without stating any reason

CIGARBOX MARKETING provides a standard file format for such data export through the Cloud Service. CIGARBOX MARKETING will upon the Customer’s consent keep the data stored in the Cloud Service after the termination of the Subscription Agreement.
Payment and Billing for Premium Subscriptions
By providing a payment method that CIGARBOX MARKETING accepts, Customer represents and warrants that Customer is authorized to use the designated payment method and that Customer permits CIGARBOX MARKETING (or our third-party payment processor) to charge Customer’s payment method for the total amount of Customer’s Subscription or other purchase (including any applicable taxes and other charges). If the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable, Customer’s order or subscription may be suspended or canceled. Customer must resolve any problem CIGARBOX MARKETING encounters in order to proceed with Customer’s order. In the event Customer wants to change or update payment information associated with Customer’s account, Customer can do so by logging into Customer’s account profile and editing the payment information. Customer acknowledges that the amount billed may vary due to promotional offers, changes to your Subscription, or changes in applicable taxes or other charges, and Customer authorizes CIGARBOX MARKETING (or our third-party payment processor) to charge Customer’s payment method for the corresponding amount.
All prices are shown in U.S. dollars and applicable taxes and other charges, if any, are additional. Premium subscriptions and the Cloud Services are subject to availability and CIGARBOX MARKETING reserves the right to impose any limits or reject part or all of an order or discontinue offering certain subscriptions or services without prior notice, even if Customer has already placed an order.
Customer is responsible for any sales, duty, or other governmental taxes or fees due with respect to Customer’s purchase of a subscription or other products. CIGARBOX MARKETING will collect applicable sales tax if it determines that CIGARBOX MARKETING has a duty to collect sales tax. CIGARBOX MARKETING will present any taxes that it is required to collect at checkout but note that actual taxes charged may be adjusted from the amount shown at checkout. Several factors may cause this, such as variances between processor programs and changes in tax rates.
Technical requirements
Information about the platform, hardware, and software requirements for the Cloud Service is available upon request.
The Technical Requirements may be updated by CIGARBOX MARKETING without prior notice. CIGARBOX MARKETING shall, however, notify the Customer at least 60 days in advance if CIGARBOX MARKETING will stop supporting previously supported Technical Requirements.
Amendments to Technical Requirements shall not affect the Customer’s use of the Cloud Service, but if the Customer fails to meet the Technical Requirements, subsequent updates and extensions to the service may become unavailable to the Customer.
The Customer shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining all hardware, software, third party services, and other equipment needed for the access and use of the Cloud Service, and is responsible for all charges and expenses related thereto, including internet access. CIGARBOX MARKETING reserves the right to cancel access to the Cloud Service in the event Customer’s failure to maintain and update their own hardware or software should represent a security risk for CIGARBOX MARKETING.
Service levels and planned downtime
It should be noted that the provisions of this clause 7 apply unless mandatory consumer protection legislation prescribes a better solution for the Customer.
The Cloud Service is provided “as is” and as a standardized service to anyone who has a valid subscription. The Cloud Service shall, however, fulfill the quality and accessibility requirements generally associated with this type of service. A subscription gives the Customer a right to use the Cloud Service as is at all times, and the Customer’s use is not conditional or tied to a specific version or functionality. CIGARBOX MARKETING shall not be responsible for ensuring that the service fits the purpose for which the Customer uses the Cloud Service. CIGARBOX MARKETING reserves the right to make improvements, add, modify or remove functionality. CIGARBOX MARKETING may, however, not remove functionality which in CIGARBOX MARKETING’s view is to be regarded as key features of the Cloud Service.
The Customer acknowledges that the Cloud Service will not always be completely free of errors and that the improvement of the Cloud Service is a continuous process. The Customer is further aware that successful use of the Cloud Service is dependent on equipment and factors that the Customer itself is responsible for (such as adequate internet connection) or which is outside of CIGARBOX MARKETING’s control.
