Cookie Policy
The three categories of cookies we use, who receives what, and how to turn analytics and advertising on or off at any time.
On this page
This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on Carousel's websites, what each one is for, and how to change your choices at any time. In Québec, the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, nothing beyond what is strictly necessary runs until you consent. Elsewhere, analytics and advertising cookies run by default and you can turn them off at any time.
1. What we use
We use three categories.
a. Strictly necessary
Session, authentication, security, fraud prevention, and load balancing. These are required for the site to work and are always on. No consent is needed for them.
b. Analytics
Used only to understand how the site is used. In Québec, the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, these are off until you turn them on. Elsewhere, they are on by default and you can turn them off at any time.
c. Advertising
Used to see which of our ads lead to visits, sign-ups and purchases, through Google (Google Analytics and Google Ads), Meta and LinkedIn. These cookies are set on oncarousel.com and app.oncarousel.com. When you create an account or buy tokens, our server also tells those companies, with your email address in hashed form (scrambled one way, so it cannot be read back) so they can match it to an ad click. They never receive applicant information, screening results or reports. In Québec, the European Economic Area, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, these are off until you turn them on. Elsewhere, they are on by default and you can turn them off at any time.
2. What we do not use
We do not sell personal information. Advertising partners never receive applicant information, screening results or reports. Inside the Carousel app, only Google’s measurement tags run, and they receive the type of page you are on, never what is on it. We do not use session recording or heatmap tools. Under some US state laws, advertising cookies can count as “sharing” personal information; you can opt out with the banner or a Global Privacy Control signal.

4. Managing your preferences
You can change your choices at any time. Opening the preference manager lets you turn analytics and advertising on or off. Your choice applies on both oncarousel.com and app.oncarousel.com. Strictly necessary cookies cannot be turned off because the site cannot run without them. We treat a Global Privacy Control signal from your browser as a request to turn advertising off.
You can also clear or block cookies through your browser settings. Doing so may sign you out or affect parts of the site that depend on a session.
