How it works

What protects your workspace

What is in place today, written plainly. Where something is still to come, we say so.

  • Hosted in the UK

    CubeSites and the sites built with it run on Amazon Web Services in the UK. Pages, images, form enquiries and account data are stored there.

  • Two-step sign-in

    Every account can add a code from an authenticator app, so a stolen password on its own is not enough. On Pro, an owner can require it for everyone.

  • Every workspace kept apart

    Every request is limited to your own workspace on the server, and automated tests check that one workspace can never reach another. Our staff console shows plans and usage, not your content.

  • Published sites stand apart

    Published sites are served from a separate domain to the editor and never carry a sign-in cookie, so a page on one site cannot act for a signed-in editor.

  • Custom code in a sandbox

    Custom code blocks and embedded content run in a sandboxed frame, cut off from the rest of the page.

  • Forms that resist spam

    Contact forms use hidden traps, timing checks and rate limits. Visitor IP addresses are kept only as a one-way hash for spam control.

  • Analytics only with consent

    Google Analytics loads only after a visitor accepts cookies. Fonts come from a service that does not track visitors.

  • Keys you control

    API tokens act with the permissions of the person who created them and can be revoked at any time. Integration keys are encrypted at rest.

  • AI on your terms

    AI only drafts for a person to accept, can be switched off for a workspace, and your content is not used to train models.
