Configure Cookie Consent on the Career Site
You can configure cookie consent on external career sites to comply with the data protection regulations governing cookies in various countries. If cookie consent isn't enabled on a site, nonessential cookies are stored by default. If cookie consent is enabled, non-essential cookies are stored only on candidate's explicit consent.
What to do next
Open the Widgets tab, and configure the look and feel of the modals.
Once a candidate accepts or declines cookies, the cookie consent modal isn't presented to them again until they clear their browser cookie history. However, you can add a link to cookie preferences in either the header or footer to provide candidates with a way to change their preferences without having to clear their cookie history.
Add the cookie preferences as links within custom content pages.
Configure Third-Party or Custom Cookies
You can use custom JavaScript to enable third-party integrations that store cookies in any category. The executions can be controlled based on a candidate’s preference using a variable given for each category.
Standard cookies used by Recruiting are added directly when the respective cookie category is selected by the candidate. Use following category variables to control the cookies from third-party applications that are added by custom JavaScript.
- Functional Cookies: vFunctionalCookies
- Analytical and Performance Cookies: vAnalyticalPerformanceCookies
- Custom cookie category: vCustomCookies
Custom Cookie Category
You can add one custom cookie category with the desired name and description to control the cookies that doesn’t fit in the default categories. Add a condition in the custom JavaScript to execute the script to enable custom cookie category functionalities only when vCustomCookies=true.
Other Cookie Categories
If you're adding any functionalities using custom JavaScript that store cookies of either functional analytical and performance types, then those script executions can be controlled to run based on a candidate’s preference. Add the condition in the scripts to execute when vFunctionalCookies=true or vAnalyticalPerformanceCookies=true respectively.
