Cookie Policy
How we use cookies and browser storage, and the control you have.
Last updated: June 13, 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how ApplyLift (the Service) uses cookies and similar browser-storage technologies, and how you can control them. For more on how we handle personal information, see our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies and browser storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. Similar technologies, such as local storage, let a site save information in your browser. Together they help a website function, remember your preferences, and understand how it is used.
How we use them
ApplyLift is built to be light on cookies. We use the following categories:
| Category | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Essential | Required for the site to load and function securely. These cannot be switched off. |
| Preferences | Remember choices such as your settings within the builder. |
| Local storage (your resumes) | Saves the CVs you build directly in your browser so your work is not lost. This data stays on your device. |
| Analytics (future) | If enabled later, helps us understand aggregate, non-identifying usage so we can improve the Service. |
| Payment (future) | If you purchase a plan, our payment provider may set cookies needed to process the transaction securely. |
Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties we rely on, such as a payment provider during checkout, or an analytics provider if we add one. These providers operate under their own privacy and cookie policies.
Managing cookies
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can clear local storage to remove the resumes saved on your device. Blocking essential cookies may cause parts of the Service to stop working. To learn how to manage cookies, consult your browser help documentation.
Changes to this Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as the Service evolves — for example, if we introduce analytics. Changes will be reflected by updating the date at the top of this page.
