1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide a better user experience.

Cookies allow websites to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferred language, login status, and other settings. This helps personalize your experience and makes the website easier to use.

In simple terms: Cookies are like digital sticky notes that help websites remember who you are and what you prefer, so you don't have to start from scratch every time you visit.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

JobJourney uses different types of cookies for various purposes. Here's a breakdown of each category:

These cookies cannot be disabled as they are essential for the platform to work.

4. Third-Party Cookies

JobJourney uses third-party services that may set their own cookies on your device. These services help us provide analytics, improve performance, and deliver a better user experience.

6. Do Not Track Signals

"Do Not Track" (DNT) is a privacy preference that you can set in your web browser. When enabled, it sends a signal to websites requesting that they do not track your browsing activity.

Current DNT Support: At this time, there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to DNT signals. JobJourney does not currently respond to DNT signals, but we respect your privacy choices and provide granular cookie controls.

You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser settings or our cookie consent banner to limit tracking and data collection.

Future Updates: We are monitoring developments in DNT standards and may implement DNT support in the future. Any changes will be reflected in this Cookie Policy.
