Cookie Policy
Last updated 2 August 2026
This policy explains how Recruitment Whales uses cookies and similar browser storage on our website and Recruitment OS platform, which technologies are necessary, and how you can control optional uses.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We may also use similar local storage technologies. They can keep a session secure, remember a preference, or—with your permission—help us understand how the service is used.
2. Strictly necessary technologies
Necessary cookies and storage support authentication, security, fraud prevention, consent records, load balancing and core site operation. The service cannot reliably function without them, so they do not require opt-in consent where applicable law permits this exemption.
3. Optional analytics and marketing
Optional analytics or marketing technologies are not activated until you consent. If enabled, analytics may help us understand page performance and feature usage. Marketing technologies, if introduced, may measure campaigns. We do not use optional cookies to make automated hiring decisions.
4. Your choices
You can accept or decline optional technologies through our consent banner. You can withdraw a saved choice by clearing site data in your browser and choosing again when the banner reappears. Blocking necessary storage in browser settings may prevent sign-in and other protected features from working.
5. Third-party services
Some features rely on infrastructure, authentication, communications or other service providers. A provider may set or read a cookie only when needed to deliver its service and subject to our contracts and your applicable consent choices.
6. Retention and updates
Session cookies normally expire when you close your browser. Persistent preferences last only as long as needed for their stated purpose or until you clear them. We may update this policy when our technology or legal obligations change and will revise the date above when we do.
