Cookie & Local Storage Policy
Last updated: May 12, 2026
Overview
This Cookie Policy explains how JobLink Philippines utilizes cookies, browser LocalStorage, and related web technologies to deliver a secure, responsive, and seamless experience across our job search platform and resume builder.
1What Are Cookies & Local Storage?
Cookies are small data files placed on your device by web servers to identify sessions, remember preferences, and secure logins.
LocalStorage is a modern web browser feature that allows web applications to store larger data sets (such as your in-progress resume drafts) directly on your device without sending incomplete drafts back and forth over the network until you choose to save them.
2Categories of Storage We Use
We classify our storage technologies into the following categories:
- 1. Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for account authentication (Firebase Auth / session tokens), CSRF security, and routing between protected candidate and employer dashboards.
- 2. Functional & Auto-Save Storage (LocalStorage): Used to automatically preserve your resume draft in real-time so you do not lose progress if your browser closes, as well as saving your UI theme (light/dark mode) and search filters.
- 3. Performance & Diagnostics: Anonymous session metrics used to detect broken links, identify slow database queries, and optimize mobile responsiveness across Philippine telecom networks.
3Third-Party Technologies
We may utilize trusted third-party services that set essential storage:
- Google OAuth / Firebase Authentication (for single sign-on security and token validation)
- Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) for high-speed font and asset caching
- Payment gateway security tokens (during QR Ph / GCash checkout validation)
4How to Control or Clear Cookies & Storage
You have full control over stored browser data:
- Browser Cookie Controls: You can configure your web browser (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox) to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking essential cookies will prevent you from signing in.
- Clearing LocalStorage Drafts:You can clear your auto-saved resume progress at any time by clicking "Clear Draft" inside the resume editor or by clearing your browser's site data.
