This policy explains what cookies are, how MashalCareers uses them, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to supply information to the website operator.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (which are deleted when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
Cookies can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third parties whose content or services are embedded in the page ("third-party cookies").
MashalCareers uses a minimal number of cookies, primarily those that are strictly necessary for the website to function. We do not use third-party advertising or behavioural tracking cookies.
The cookies we use fall into the following categories:
Essential (Strictly Necessary) Cookies — These cookies are required for the core functionality of the website. Without them, key features such as logging in, maintaining your session, and securing your account would not work. These cookies do not require your consent under UK law.
Analytics Cookies — If enabled, these cookies help us understand how visitors interact with MashalCareers by collecting anonymised usage data. This helps us improve the service. We will only set analytics cookies with your consent.
Essential Cookies
SESSION (JSESSIONID) — A session cookie that keeps you logged in as you navigate the site. It is deleted when you close your browser or your session expires (typically after 30 minutes of inactivity).
CSRF Token (_csrf / XSRF-TOKEN) — A security cookie used to protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks. It ensures that form submissions and sensitive requests originate from your authenticated session and not from a malicious third party. This cookie is essential for the secure operation of the site.
Remember Me — If you choose the "remember me" option at login, a persistent cookie is set so you do not need to log in again on your next visit. This cookie persists for a set period (typically 14 days) or until you log out.
Analytics Cookies (if enabled)
If we introduce analytics tools in the future, they will only be activated with your explicit consent. Analytics cookies collect anonymised information about page visits, time on site, and navigation patterns. They help us identify which features are most used and where the user experience can be improved.
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can choose to block or delete cookies at any time. However, please be aware that if you disable essential cookies, some parts of MashalCareers may not function correctly (for example, you may not be able to log in or maintain a session).

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our use of cookies or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
