What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit websites. They help websites remember information about your visit, making your next visit easier and the site more useful to you. Cookies play an important role in providing many online services and can improve your browsing experience by remembering your preferences and settings.
How We Use Cookies
Blairify uses cookies to provide essential functionality and to improve your experience on our platform. We are transparent about our cookie usage and give you control over non-essential cookies. We believe in collecting only the data necessary to provide you with a great interview preparation experience.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are necessary for Blairify to function properly. These cookies enable core functionality such as user authentication, security, and accessibility features. Without these cookies, services you have requested cannot be provided. Essential cookies include authentication tokens that keep you logged in securely, session identifiers that maintain your active session while you use the platform, security cookies that protect against fraud and unauthorized access, and preference cookies that remember your settings and customization choices. These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our service and cannot be disabled in our systems.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies are optional and help us understand how visitors interact with Blairify. These cookies collect information anonymously, allowing us to improve our service based on usage patterns. Analytics cookies help us see which features are most popular, identify technical issues, understand how users navigate through the platform, and measure the effectiveness of new features. You can choose to disable analytics cookies without affecting your ability to use Blairify.

We want to be clear about what we do not use. Blairify does not use advertising cookies to track you across websites, social media tracking cookies that monitor your activity, third-party marketing cookies that build profiles for targeted advertising, or any cookies that share your data with advertisers. Your privacy is important to us, and we limit our cookie usage to what is necessary for providing and improving our service.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences
Through Blairify
You can manage your cookie preferences directly through our platform. Visit our cookie settings page to enable or disable analytics cookies at any time. Your preferences will be saved and respected during all future visits. Please note that essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are necessary for the platform to function properly. Disabling essential cookies would prevent you from logging in, saving your preferences, and using core features of Blairify.
Through Your Browser
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to block all cookies, accept only certain cookies, or notify you when a cookie is being set. However, blocking essential cookies will prevent you from using Blairify as they are required for authentication and security. Each browser has different instructions for managing cookies:

- Firefox: Go to Settings, then Privacy and Security, then Cookies and Site Data
- Safari: Go to Preferences, then Privacy, then Manage Website Data

Third-Party Cookies
Blairify uses minimal third-party services to provide our platform. Our cloud hosting provider may set cookies necessary for delivering the service securely and reliably. Our analytics provider may set cookies to help us understand how users interact with our platform, but only if you have consented to analytics cookies. These third-party services are bound by their own privacy policies and cookie policies. We carefully select our service providers and ensure they meet high standards for data protection and privacy. We do not allow third parties to use cookies for advertising or tracking purposes on Blairify.
Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" (DNT) feature that signals to websites that you do not want to be tracked. We respect Do Not Track signals for analytics cookies. When we detect a DNT signal from your browser, we will not set analytics cookies or collect analytics data from your visit. However, essential cookies must still be used for the platform to function properly, as they are necessary for authentication, security, and basic functionality. These essential cookies do not track you across websites and are used only to provide the Blairify service.
Cookie Consent
When you first visit Blairify, you will see a cookie consent banner that explains our use of cookies. You can choose to accept all cookies, accept only essential cookies, or customize your preferences. Essential cookies are automatically enabled as they are necessary for the service to work. Analytics cookies require your explicit consent before being activated. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by visiting our cookie settings page. Your consent choices are stored in a cookie so that we remember your preferences on future visits.
Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our cookie practices, technology, or legal requirements. When we make significant changes, we will notify you through our platform or via email. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy indicates when it was most recently revised.
