What cookies are
A cookie is a small text file that a site places on your device when you visit. It lets the site remember things about your visit — like whether you're signed in, or what filters you had set on the jobs page. Similar technologies (local storage, indexedDB) work the same way for our purposes; when we say “cookies” below we mean all of them.
What we use
We keep the list short on purpose:
- Session cookies set by our authentication provider so you can stay signed in across page loads.
- Preference cookies that remember your sidebar state, your density preference, and the active organization when you're a member of more than one.
- Attribution cookie (
grj_utm) that records where your first visit came from (for example a campaign link or a referring site) for 90 days, so we can see which channels bring people here. - Consent cookie (
grj_consent) that remembers whether you accepted or declined analytics cookies, for one year, so we do not ask on every visit. - Google Analytics 4 cookies (
_gaand_ga_*), set on our domain by Google Analytics only after you accept, which we use for aggregate usage reporting: which pages are visited, how people move between them, and roughly where visitors are from. Google processes this data on our behalf. Nothing is sent to Google until you accept. We do not enable Google Signals, advertising features, or audience sharing, and Google Analytics does not log or store full IP addresses.
We do not use cookies for cross-site tracking or retargeting. We do not sell cookie data. We do not participate in digital advertising exchanges.
Categories
Categorized in line with ePrivacy terminology:
- Strictly necessary: authentication and security cookies. Required for the site to function; cannot be disabled in product.
- Functionality: preferences that make the product more convenient (theme, sidebar state, active org).
- Analytics: aggregated usage reporting through Google Analytics 4, plus our first-party attribution cookie. Not required for the site to work, and only set with your consent.
How to control them
You can control cookies through your browser settings — all modern browsers let you block or delete cookies per site. If you block strictly-necessary cookies, the Service will not work.
We ask before loading Google Analytics, on your first visit, and remember your answer for a year.
To stop Google Analytics on this and every other site, install Google's opt-out browser add-on, or block googletagmanager.com with a content blocker; the site works normally without it. You can read how Google uses data from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Changes
We'll update this policy if we change what cookies we use. See also our Privacy Policy for the broader picture of what we do with your data.
