This page explains the cookies and similar technologies used by inploi: on the careers sites we host, in Studio, and in the plugins that can be embedded on a site. It lists each cookie, who sets it, what it is for, and how long it lasts, so you can answer customer and candidate questions and keep cookie policies accurate. For inploi’s own corporate cookie policy, see the inploi Privacy Centre.

What are cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files a website stores in the browser to remember information between page loads and visits — for example, to keep someone signed in or to remember a preference. inploi also uses two related browser technologies:
  • localStorage — stores values on the device until they are explicitly cleared. Unlike cookies, it is not sent to a server with every request.
  • sessionStorage — stores values only until the browser tab is closed.
Throughout this page, “cookies” is used as shorthand for cookies and these similar technologies. inploi groups cookies into the following categories, in line with standard cookie-policy practice:

Cookies on careers sites

These are set on your inploi-hosted careers site, on your own domain (for example careers.yourcompany.com), so they are first-party to your candidates.
The analytics cookie holds a random identifier (a UUID) only. It cannot be reversed into a person’s identity, and no personal data is collected through it unless a candidate voluntarily provides it — for example, by submitting an application.
Alongside the analytics cookie, the inploi SDK keeps two values in the browser’s own storage rather than in cookies. These are not transmitted with every request the way cookies are:

Third-party tools

Accessibility toolbar (accessiBe)

If the accessibility toolbar is enabled, it is provided by a third party, accessiBe, and its script is loaded from acsbapp.com. The tools and their data handling are accessiBe’s, not inploi’s, and are governed by accessiBe’s own policies.
  • accessiBe saves a visitor’s chosen accessibility adjustments (such as font size, contrast, or reading aids) in the browser’s localStorage, so they persist across visits.
  • accessiBe states that its accessWidget does not use cookies to track visitors. Opening the toolbar may set non-persistent storage from accessiBe’s domain.
  • When the toolbar is active, accessiBe processes data on its servers — such as page URLs, page structure, and IP address — to apply accessibility adjustments.
For details, see accessiBe’s Privacy Notice and Cookie Policy.
Other inploi plugins — such as the Kin agent, Chatbot, and Job Search — are inploi’s own (first-party) and use the SDK analytics identifier described above rather than setting their own separate tracking cookies.

Cookies in Studio

These cookies are set on Studio (the inploi platform your team logs into), not on your public careers site. They apply to Studio users such as recruiters and Customer Success Managers.

How candidates manage cookies

inploi-hosted careers sites show a cookie banner to candidates in regions that require consent — the EU and the UK — detected automatically from the visitor’s location. Candidates choose between two options:
  • Accept all — analytics cookies are set so candidate activity can be measured in Studio Insights.
  • Only essential — analytics is switched off. The isdk_session cookie is removed and no further analytics events are sent. Only strictly necessary cookies remain.
Whichever option a candidate picks is remembered in __inploi_user_settings, so the banner is not shown again on that browser. Visitors outside the regions requiring consent default to analytics being on, in line with the rules that apply in their region. You can also place a cookie preferences toggle anywhere on your careers site using the Cookie switch block in the page editor, so candidates can change their choice at any time. Candidates can additionally block or delete cookies through their own browser settings, though doing so may affect how the site works.
Strictly necessary cookies — those that keep someone signed in or remember a cookie choice — are always set, because the site cannot function correctly without them. They do not require consent.

What inploi does not use

  • No advertising cookies. inploi does not set advertising or retargeting cookies and does not share its cookies with ad networks.
  • No cross-site tracking by inploi. The inploi analytics cookie is first-party and is used only to measure activity on your own careers site.
  • No personal data in analytics cookies. Candidate activity is tied to a random identifier until the candidate chooses to identify themselves.
