Last updated: 3 July 2026
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember your preferences, keep you signed in, and understand how you use the site. Similar technologies include local storage and session storage.
2. How We Use Cookies
HiringTree uses cookies for the following purposes:
2.1 Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Platform to function. They enable core features such as authentication, session management, and security protections. You cannot opt out of these cookies.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session token | Keeps you signed in and authenticates API requests | Session / 30 days |
| CSRF token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
| Cookie consent | Remembers your cookie preferences | 12 months |
2.2 Functional cookies
These cookies remember your preferences, such as language selection and interface settings, to provide a better experience.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Language preference | Remembers your chosen language (Hindi, Nepali, Bengali, Arabic, English) | 12 months |
| UI preferences | Stores display settings and layout preferences | 12 months |
| Source attribution (local storage) | If you arrive through a campaign link, a printed QR code, a referral code or a training institute’s link, we keep a note of which one in your browser’s local storage, so that the organisation that referred you is still credited if you finish registering later | 30 days |
The attribution note holds only the campaign, referral or organisation identifiers from the link you followed and the page you landed on. It does not hold your name, contact details, or any record of your activity on other websites, and it is cleared once your registration is complete. Clearing your browser storage removes it, in which case your registration is simply recorded without a source.
2.3 Analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how Users interact with the Platform so we can improve features and fix issues. Analytics data is aggregated and does not identify individual Users.
| Cookie | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Page views | Tracks which pages are visited and how often | Session |
| Feature usage | Records which features are used to guide development priorities | Session |
3. Third-Party Cookies
We may use services from third parties that set their own cookies on your device. These are limited to:
- Google Sign-In — authentication cookies set by Google when you sign in with your Google account. Governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.
- Analytics tools — analytics cookies may be set only if analytics is enabled.
We do not use third-party advertising cookies. We do not use tracking cookies from social media networks.
4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can control cookies in several ways:
- Browser settings — most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings menu. Note that blocking essential cookies may prevent the Platform from functioning correctly.
- Device settings — mobile devices provide settings to limit tracking and clear stored data.
If you disable cookies, some features of the Platform (such as staying signed in or language preferences) may not work as expected.
5. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated “last updated” date.
