What are cookies?

Cookies are small amounts of information stored on the user’s device (e.g. computer, smartphone or another electronic device) by a website they visit. When the user returns to a website, the cookies belonging to that site are sent back to it. This allows the website to “remember” data about a user between requests or browser sessions.

For example, we may monitor e.g., how many times you visit the website, which pages you go to, traffic data, location data and your IP address. This information helps us to understand user behavior to improve the services we provide, to remember if you have subscribed or registered and to remember your preferences so that we can tailor the professional opportunities we make available to you via the job board.

The cookies we place on your device may fall into one or more of the following categories:

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are used to perform essential functions to enable the website to work properly. Without them, services you’ve asked for can’t be provided.

Session Cookies: These cookies allow our website to link your actions during a particular browser session and expire when the user closes the browser, and the cookies are immediately deleted from the device.

Performance cookies: These cookies collect information about how you use our website, e.g., which pages you go to most often.

Functionality cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember the choices you make (such as your username, language, last action and search preferences) and provide enhanced, more personal features. The information collected by these cookies is anonymous and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. The cookies we use may be first-party cookies (i.e., cookies that our web services store on your device and are exclusively managed by Compound Portfolio) or third-party cookies (i.e., cookies stored on your device by entities different from the owner of this website). We don’t normally use third party cookies, but in some cases, we use third-party analytics services to process information about how this job board performs and how our users, in general, navigate through it.
