1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit or use online services. Cookies help websites and applications:
- remember your preferences,
- maintain your login session,
- understand how features are used,
- enhance speed and security, and
- improve overall user experience.
This Policy explains how Sensiq uses cookies and similar technologies within the platform and website.
2. How We Use Cookies
Sensiq uses cookies and local storage technologies to:
- Authenticate and maintain secure user sessions
- Store user preferences, configurations, and UI settings
- Analyse usage patterns and platform performance
- Improve stability and reliability
- Detect anomalies, fraud, or security risks
- Support AI-assisted workflows and optimisation
Cookies are an essential part of how the platform functions.
Cookie-based analytics and behavioural data are used solely to operate, secure, and improve the platform and do not provide users or third parties with access to, or rights over, Sensiq's proprietary systems, models, logic, or outputs.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are required for the platform to operate securely and reliably. Without them, essential functionality will not work.
Examples include:
- Authentication tokens
- Session identifiers
- Security and anti-fraud tokens (e.g., CSRF protection)
- Load-balancing and routing identifiers
Duration: Session-based or up to 30 days
Can be disabled? No — disabling them will break critical platform functionality.
3.2 Performance & Analytics Cookies
These cookies help us understand how you use the platform so we can improve performance, stability, and user experience.
Examples include:
- Page navigation and feature-use analytics
- Error and crash reporting
- Performance monitoring
- Behavioural insights to optimise workflows
Duration: Up to 2 years
Can be disabled? Yes — through browser settings (though some diagnostics may be affected).
3.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies store user preferences and configuration settings to deliver a personalised experience.
Examples include:
- Language and region settings
- Dashboard layout and UI preferences
- Recruitment workflow views or filters
Duration: Up to 1 year
Can be disabled? Yes — but certain preferences and display settings may reset or behave inconsistently.
4. Third-Party Cookies and Similar Technologies
Sensiq may use third-party services that place cookies or access similar identifiers to support platform functionality.
These include:
- Cloud infrastructure providers – hosting, caching, load balancing
- AI processing partners – inference services for parsing, enrichment, and Sensiq Assistant
- Analytics and performance providers – monitoring usage patterns and errors
These third parties operate under strict contractual data-protection obligations. Their own cookie or privacy policies may apply.
Sensiq does not allow advertising cookies or cross-site tracking cookies.
5. Local Storage, Session Storage & Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, Sensiq uses browser-based storage mechanisms for:
- Authentication tokens
- Account and workspace preferences
- Caching interface data to improve speed
- Reducing server load and improving performance
Local storage:
- does not expire automatically,
- stores more data than cookies, and
- is only accessible by the browser on your device.
You can clear these at any time via your browser settings.
6. Managing Cookies and Storage
6.1 Browser Controls
You can manage or delete cookies using your browser settings. This typically allows you to:

- Clear storage when the browser closes
6.2 Browser Resources
For convenience:
- Google Chrome
- Mozilla Firefox

Important note: Blocking or deleting cookies or storage items may cause the platform to malfunction, including loss of login, inability to load dashboards, or failure of AI-driven features.
7. Do Not Track (DNT)
Some browsers allow users to send a "Do Not Track" signal. There is currently no industry standard for responding to these signals, and Sensiq does not modify behaviour based on DNT headers. We will monitor industry developments.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect:
- new features,
- changes in technology,
- legal or regulatory developments, or
- updates to our platform or partners.
Significant updates will be communicated through the platform or email.
