Cookie Policy
This cookie policy explains how our website uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are commonly used by professional websites to enhance functionality, improve efficiency, provide reporting information, and enhance user experience. For example, cookies allow us to track and offer you a better user experience by remembering your saved jobs or your job search preferences when you return to the Website.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Student Job Search) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The entities that set up these third-party cookies can recognise your device both when you visit our website and when you visit certain other websites.
Third-party cookies
The third-party content is added to our website so we can keep you up to date with carefully selected information that you may find relevant or of interest, however this can result in these third-party providers storing additional cookies on your device that we have no control over.
Cookies we use
We have explained the different types of cookies that we use below:
Essential cookies/strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Performance cookies
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
Functionality cookies
These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly.
Targeting/advertising cookies
These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
