Cookie Policy
Effective November 9, 2026
1. Overview
Cookies are small files a website saves in your browser. We also use your browser's own storage for some settings. This page lists each one and what it is for. For everything else about your data, see our Privacy Policy.
We use them in three groups. Essential ones are always on. Analytics and embedded content load only after you allow them in our cookie banner.
2. Changing your choice
You can change or withdraw your consent at any time from your cookie settings.
3. Cookies we use
Payment providers may set their own cookies during checkout, under their own privacy policies.
Necessary

4. Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site, such as which pages are visited and how people arrive. It is provided by Google, and data may be processed in the United States. Google Analytics does not load until you accept analytics cookies.
With the same consent, we remember the website that first linked you to Seekrly in your browser's local storage (and briefly in a cookie during sign-up), and save it to your account when you register, so we know which channels bring new users. It is never shared. Withdrawing consent deletes it from your browser.
5. Embedded content
The resume builder page includes a YouTube demo video. Nothing is loaded from YouTube until you allow marketing cookies and press play. YouTube may then set its own cookies under Google's privacy policy.
6. Shared resume view counts
When you open a resume someone has shared, we count the view for its owner, who only sees totals. If you have accepted analytics cookies, a cookie records which shared resumes this browser viewed and when, so repeat visits within an hour aren't counted twice and the owner sees how many different browsers viewed it. It contains no personal data. Without that consent, no cookie is used and each page load counts as one view.
