1.What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores in your browser. Some are needed for the site to work. Others remember preferences. Job Central uses as few as it can.

2.Categories we use

  • Essential: Needed to sign in, keep your account secure, and remember these choices. They cannot be turned off.
  • Functional: Remember small preferences, like which tab you used last. Off unless you allow them.
  • Analytics: Measure how the site is used. Job Central does not use analytics cookies today.

We set no cookie in the functional or analytics categories before you agree.

4.Google sign-in

If you choose to continue with Google, Google sets its own cookies on its own domain while you sign in. Job Central does not control them. Read Google's privacy information for details. If you never choose Google sign-in, those cookies are not set.

5.Paystack checkout

When an organization pays for a plan or adds a card, Paystack's checkout page sets its own cookies on its own domain to process and secure the payment. Job Central does not control them. Read Paystack's privacy information for details. If you never pay or add a card, those cookies are not set.

6.Changing your choice

Use the Manage cookies button in the footer, or in your account settings, to open your preferences at any time. We ask again if the cookie list changes or after 6 months.

You can also clear or block cookies in your browser settings. If you block essential cookies, you will not be able to sign in.
