1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Talenture B.V. (“Talenture”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and platform, www.talenture.ai.
We use cookies to improve your browsing experience, analyze site traffic, personalize content, and support recruitment-related services such as candidate dashboards, analytics, and AI-driven recommendations.
This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we process personal data.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or device when you visit a website. They help the website function properly, recognize returning users, and collect information about browsing behavior for analytics and improvement.
Cookies may be session cookies (deleted after you close your browser) or persistent cookies (remain on your device for a specified period).

3. Types of Cookies We Use

a) Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the platform’s basic functionality — such as secure login, session management, and load balancing. Without them, services like candidate account access and job posting management would not function properly.
Example: Authentication cookies for account login.

b) Functional Cookies
These cookies remember user preferences (e.g., language settings or saved filters) to improve usability and personalize your experience.
Example: Remembering candidate dashboard preferences.

c) Analytical and Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand how users interact with the platform. We use analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Mixpanel, or similar) to gather anonymized information on visitor behavior. This helps us enhance AI model performance, platform design, and user engagement.

d) Marketing and Personalization Cookies
With consent, these cookies allow us to deliver more relevant job suggestions, training materials, and recruitment campaigns based on user activity and preferences. They may be set by us or by trusted partners to help measure campaign effectiveness.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We may use trusted third-party services that set cookies on our behalf, such as:
- Google Analytics / Tag Manager — for anonymized website analytics.
- LinkedIn Insights / Meta Pixel — for recruitment advertising and campaign tracking (only when consented to).
- Cloud infrastructure providers — for load optimization and content delivery.
Each third party acts in compliance with GDPR and maintains its own privacy policy. For more information, refer to the third-party documentation provided via our cookie banner.
