These cookies do not give us access to your social media accounts or the data you store within them. The use or interaction with social media buttons or features is subject to the respective rules of the social media channel – Jobtoolz has no control over these rules.
Furthermore, Jobtoolz uses pixels, including the Facebook pixel, which allows Jobtoolz to deliver relevant content or personalized advertisements. Hotjar and Wonderkind cookies are also included for the purpose of usage tracking and job campaigns, respectively.
  • Jobtoolz Google Tag Manager feature
Jobtoolz has a Google Tag Manager feature built into the application which allows the recruitment personnel/companies posting jobs on Jobtoolz, to incorporate tag management into their job sites. This means that additional cookies can be added to assist the recruiters in checking the performance and usage metrics for their applicants; providers can include Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, HubSpot or any other providers whom the jobapp user has configured in their Google Tag Manager configuration.
  • Jobtoolz Page Builder feature
Jobtoolz has a Page Builder feature built into the application which allows the recruitment personnel/companies posting jobs, to put together a Job Site which allows applicants to see and apply to the available vacancies. This means that recruitment personnel/companies can choose to include any number of Page Builder segments via iframe, which have the potential to place additional cookies based on the site they are linking to. Providers are potentially limitless, examples would include Strava, YouTube, HubSpot or any other others whom the jobapp user has configured in their Page Builder.
  • Pixels
Tracking pixels are also called counting pixels or pixel tags. A tracking pixel is a 1×1 pixel graphic. With the help of a tracking pixel, user activities can be tracked or understood. We are using Meta (facebook) pixels where the data generated will be used to improve career pages and to allow advertisement of vacancies to the right audience.
