Cookie Policy

Last updated 11 October 2026

Draft, not legally reviewed. This describes accurately how the product is built and what it does today, and is written against the UK and EU GDPR, California's CCPA/CPRA, the Australian Privacy Act, POPIA, the UAE and Saudi PDPLs and Sri Lanka's PDPA. Whether that description is sufficient in each market is a question for a lawyer, and it has not been asked yet.

What we use

HireMonkey uses a small number of first-party cookies. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not sell data to advertisers.

The full list

Cookie	Purpose	Lifetime	Type
hiremonkey-theme	Remembers light or dark theme.	1 year	Functional
sb-…-auth-token	Keeps you signed in.	Until sign-out	Strictly necessary

Why there is no cookie banner

Under EU and UK ePrivacy rules, consent is needed for cookies that are not necessary for a service you asked for. Both cookies above are: one keeps you signed in, and the other remembers a theme you chose by pressing the theme button. We set no analytics, advertising, or tracking cookies, and no third-party cookies at all — so there is nothing a banner could ask you about.

If that ever changes, we will ask first rather than assume, and the choice will be as easy to refuse as to accept.

Controlling cookies

You can clear or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking the strictly necessary cookie will stop you from signing in; blocking the functional one only means your theme resets each visit.
