Cookies are small text files stored on your browser or device when you visit a website. They help the platform remember your preferences (like staying signed in), keep your account secure, and understand how people interact with our local service marketplace.
02Types of cookies we use
We classify our cookies into three simple categories:

03How to manage your preferences
You are always in control of your privacy. You can update your consent choices at any time using our in-app cookie preference banner, or through your browser settings:
- In-App Preference Center: Click the gear icon on our cookie prompt at the bottom of the page to toggle optional analytics or marketing cookies on or off.
- Browser Controls: Most web browsers (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) allow you to clear or block cookies via settings. Blocking essential cookies may prevent login and job submission from functioning properly.
