Cookie Policy
Every cookie and storage entry Reqcore uses, what it is for, how long it lasts, and how to change your choice.
Cookie Policy
Version: 1.0 Last updated: August 30, 2026
This page lists every cookie and local-storage entry the Reqcore websites and application use. It supplements the Privacy Policy.
In Norway, storing or reading information on your device requires your consent unless it is strictly necessary to deliver a service you asked for (ekomloven § 2-7b, implementing ePrivacy Art. 5(3)).
The short version
Nothing optional is loaded before you choose. If you decline, or simply never answer the banner, no request is made to PostHog or to Google, and nothing from them is stored on your device. This is enforced in code, not by a setting we ask a third party to respect.
1. Strictly necessary
These are set without consent because the Service cannot work without them. Legal basis: ekomloven § 2-7b second paragraph, and Art. 6(1)(b) or (f) GDPR.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
better-auth.session_token | HTTP-only cookie | Keeps you signed in. Without it every page load would log you out. | Session, or until sign-out |
better-auth.csrf | HTTP-only cookie | Protects against cross-site request forgery on authenticated actions | Session |
reqcore-consent | Cookie | Remembers your cookie choice (granted or denied), so we do not ask again. Shared across reqcore.com and app.reqcore.com. Storing this is what lets us honour your decision. | 1 year |
reqcore_i18n_redirected | Cookie | Remembers your language so you are not redirected on every visit | Session |
color-mode | Local storage | Remembers light or dark theme | Until cleared |
2. Analytics — only after you accept
Legal basis: consent, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
ph_* | PostHog (EU) | Product analytics: which pages and features are used, so we can prioritise work. Your IP address is dropped from every event. No session recording, no autocapture, no form or keystroke capture. | Up to 1 year |
PostHog runs on its EU instance (eu.i.posthog.com) and analytics requests are proxied through our own domain, so they are not blocked by tracker blockers — but they are still only sent after you accept.
3. Advertising measurement — only after you accept
Legal basis: consent, Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR.
| Name | Provider | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
_ga, _ga_* | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors so we can see which campaigns lead to signups | Up to 2 years |
_gcl_* | Google Ads | Links an ad click to a later signup, so we know which ads work | Up to 90 days |
_gid | Google Analytics | Distinguishes visitors within a day | 24 hours |
These apply to visitors and prospective customers on our marketing site and signup flow. They are never applied to candidates using a customer's job application form.
If you decline, the Google tag is not loaded at all — no googletagmanager.com
request is made and none of these cookies are set.
4. Third-party features you choose to use
| Name | Provider | Set when | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
endorsely_referral | Endorsely | You arrive through an affiliate link and have accepted cookies | Credits the referring partner |
| Cal.com cookies | Cal.com | You open the demo booking page | Runs the scheduling page |
| giscus / GitHub cookies | GitHub | You comment on documentation | Authenticates you to comment |
5. What we do not use
- Session recording or screen replay
- Autocapture of clicks, form inputs or keystrokes
- Fingerprinting
- Advertising cookies on candidate-facing job application pages
- Selling or sharing data with data brokers
6. Changing your choice
- In the app or on this site: clear the
reqcore-consentcookie and reload; the banner will appear again. - In your browser: block or delete cookies for reqcore.com in your browser's privacy settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will sign you out and may break parts of the Service.
- Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it, and takes effect for future processing. It does not make past processing unlawful.
If you decline after previously accepting, we opt you out and clear the analytics storage created during your visit.
