Cookie Policy
1. Cookies
CareerMetrics does not currently use cookies of any kind. We do not use analytics cookies, advertising cookies, or tracking cookies. No cookie consent banner is required because no cookies are set.
2. What is localStorage?
Instead of cookies, we use a browser feature called localStorage. This is a way for websites to store small amounts of data directly in your browser. Unlike cookies, localStorage data is never automatically sent to our servers — it stays entirely on your device.
3. What we store in localStorage
We store the following data in your browser's localStorage:
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Theme preference | Remembers whether you prefer light or dark mode |
| Premium status & email | Stores your premium registration status and associated email address locally |
| Saved career profiles | Stores career paths you have saved for later viewing |
None of this data is transmitted to our servers automatically. It exists solely in your browser to improve your experience.
4. How to clear localStorage
You can clear localStorage at any time through your browser settings. This will reset your preferences and remove any saved data:
Chrome
- Open Developer Tools (F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I / Cmd+Option+I)
- Go to the Application tab
- Under Storage, select Local Storage → https://careermetrics.co.uk
- Right-click and select Clear
Firefox
- Open Developer Tools (F12)
- Go to the Storage tab
- Expand Local Storage and select https://careermetrics.co.uk
- Right-click and select Delete All
Safari
- Open Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
- Search for careermetrics.co.uk
- Select and click Remove
Alternatively, clearing your browser's site data for careermetrics.co.uk will remove all localStorage entries.
5. Future changes
If we introduce analytics, advertising, or any form of cookie in the future, this page will be updated accordingly and we will implement appropriate consent mechanisms as required by UK law.
6. Why we're telling you this
While localStorage is technically separate from cookies and may not be subject to the same regulations, we believe in transparency about all client-side storage. You deserve to know exactly what data is stored in your browser when you use our service.
