This Cookie Policy explains what cookies and similar technologies (such as browser local storage) Ytick uses, and how you can manage your preferences. You can update your cookie preferences at any time using the Cookie Settings link in the website footer.
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They let the site remember information about your visit, such as your login state or preferences. We also use browser local storage for some preferences, which works similarly but is stored only on your device and isn't sent with every request.
These cookies are required for the Platform to function and cannot be switched off.

ytick_r | Stores your account role (candidate/student/recruiter/admin) so the right dashboard loads securely | Session |
ytick_cookie_consent | Remembers your cookie preferences | 12 months |

We may use analytics tools to understand how the Platform is used (e.g. which features are popular) so we can improve it. Where used, these are only set if you've accepted analytics cookies in the Cookie Settings panel.
Ytick products are ad-free — we do not use advertising or ad-targeting cookies, and we do not sell your data to advertisers.
You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking Cookie Settings in the footer of any page. You can also control cookies through your browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies, though doing so may affect site functionality (e.g. you may be signed out, or have to reselect preferences each visit).
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. We'll update the "last updated" date above when we do.
Questions about our use of cookies can be sent to privacy@ytick.com.
