Cookies Policy
Last updated: April 9, 2026
Transparency uses cookies and similar technologies to keep accounts secure, maintain sessions, remember product state, and understand how people use the platform. This policy explains what those technologies are, how we use them, and the choices you have.
What We Mean By Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. Similar technologies can include local storage, session storage, pixels, and SDK-based measurements. We use these tools to make Transparency work properly, keep you signed in, remember UI state, and improve reliability and product decisions.
How Transparency Uses Them
- To sign you in and keep your session active securely.
- To support account protection, logout controls, and abuse prevention.
- To remember product state and preferences, such as dismissed prompts or certain onboarding and referral UI states.
- To understand site usage and performance so we can improve company pages, job discovery, applications tracking, and referrals.
Types of Technologies We Use
- Strictly necessary technologies: used for login, session continuity, security, and core product functionality.
- Preference technologies: used to remember certain product settings or UI state on your device.
- Analytics and performance technologies: used to understand product usage, page performance, and general reliability.
Some product state may be stored in browser local storage instead of cookies. That information still helps the product remember choices on your device.
Third-Party Tools
Transparency uses third-party services that may set or rely on cookies or similar technologies, including services for authentication, analytics, performance measurement, and payments.
- Authentication providers used when you sign in.
- Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights for traffic and performance measurement.
- Stripe for token purchases and payment processing flows.
Those providers control their own technologies and practices under their own terms and privacy policies.
Your Choices
- You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
- You can clear browser storage, though some saved product state may reset.
- Blocking or deleting essential cookies may prevent login, referrals, profile actions, or other core Transparency features from working correctly.
Updates And Contact
We may update this policy as the product evolves. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page.
