Cookie Policy
Last updated: January 1, 2025
Cookies help JobBoard run smoothly and improve your experience. This page explains what cookies we use, why, and how you can control them.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by websites you visit. They help sites remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how people use the site. We also use similar technologies like localStorage and pixel tags — the rules below apply to those too.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
Essential cookies — required for the site to work. These handle login sessions, security tokens, and form submissions. You can't disable these without breaking the site.
Preference cookies — remember your settings like language, city filter, or dark mode so you don't have to set them every visit.
Analytics cookies — help us understand which pages are popular, where users drop off, and how to improve the experience. We use aggregated, non-identifying data.
Marketing cookies — used (only with your consent) to show relevant ads on other sites and measure campaign performance.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are set by trusted third parties we use, such as:
- Google Analytics — anonymous usage statistics.
- Payment processors — if you purchase a paid service.
- Embedded content — e.g. YouTube videos on job posts.
These providers have their own privacy and cookie policies. We recommend reviewing them.
4. How Long Cookies Last
Session cookies — deleted when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies — remain for a set period (usually up to 12 months) or until you delete them.
5. Managing Cookies
You can control or delete cookies in several ways:
- Browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Look under "Privacy" or "Security".
- Opt-out tools — for analytics, Google offers a browser add-on.
- Incognito or private mode — prevents new cookies from being stored after your session.
Note: blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of JobBoard (like logging in) from working correctly.
6. Do Not Track
Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. There's no standard for how sites should respond, so we currently do not alter our behavior in response to DNT signals. You can still control cookies via the methods above.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when we add or change technologies. Check the "Last updated" date at the top for the latest version.
