How Glender.io uses cookies and similar technologies on our platform.
Last updated: 1 January 2025
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give site owners useful information about how their site is being used.
Cookies may be "session" cookies (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent" cookies (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
Glender.io uses cookies for several purposes. The table below explains the types of cookies we use, what they do, and how long they last.
These cookies are strictly necessary for the Platform to function. Without them, features such as logging in and submitting applications would not work. You cannot opt out of essential cookies.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| sb-access-token | Authentication session token for signed-in users | Session |
| sb-refresh-token | Refreshes your authentication session to keep you signed in | 7 days |
| le_session | Stores session state for platform functionality | Session |
| csrf_token | Protects against cross-site request forgery attacks | Session |
These cookies remember your preferences and choices to provide a more personalised experience. Disabling them may affect how the Platform looks or behaves for you.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| le_theme | Remembers your preferred theme (light/dark) | 1 year |
| le_lang | Stores your language preference | 1 year |
| le_badges | Tracks notification badge state | 30 days |
| gl_consent | Stores your Accept or Reject choice for analytics and advertising cookies (localStorage, shared with /start) | Until you change it |
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Platform by collecting information anonymously. They are set only after you Accept the cookie banner. If you Reject, they are not loaded.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _ga | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users | 2 years |
| _ga_* | Google Analytics 4 — maintains session state | 2 years |
| _gid | Google Analytics — distinguishes unique users (short-term) | 24 hours |
| _gat | Google Analytics — throttles request rate | 1 minute |
These cookies are used on paid campaign pages such as /start to measure advertising performance. They are set only after you Accept the cookie banner. The rest of glender.io loads Google Analytics (GA4) only — not advertising pixels — after the same Accept choice.
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| _gcl_au | Google Ads — stores conversion data | 90 days |
| _fbp | Meta (Facebook) — tracks visits across websites for ad targeting | 90 days |
You can control and manage cookies in several ways:
Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can typically find these controls in the "Settings", "Preferences", or "Privacy" section of your browser. Common options include:
Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent you from using key features of the Platform, such as signing in or submitting applications.
When you first visit, a banner asks you to Accept or Reject non-essential analytics and advertising cookies. Nothing in those categories is set unless you Accept. Your choice is stored as gl_consent and is shared with the Assessment funnel at /start.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We encourage you to revisit this page periodically to stay informed.
