Cookies Policy
Last updated 20 August 2026
This policy explains how ANDRIUKHIN GLEB ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and browser storage when you visit https://gig-amigo.com or use GigAmigo.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored by a website in a browser. Similar technologies include local storage and extension storage. They can remember a session, protect a request, or retain a setting.
2. Technologies currently used
| Category | Purpose | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication and security | Maintain the signed-in Google OAuth session, protect requests, and prevent unauthorised account access. | Strictly necessary |
| Interface preferences | Remember choices such as light, dark, or system theme in the user's account or browser. | Functional |
| Extension local storage | Keep the extension connection, device-bound session material, current automation state, and pending user actions in the user's Chrome profile. | Required for the extension |
At the date shown above, GigAmigo does not use advertising cookies and does not enable optional analytics cookies by default. If optional analytics or marketing technologies are introduced, this policy and the consent controls will be updated before those technologies are enabled.
3. Essential cookies
Essential authentication and security cookies cannot be disabled through a preference centre because the signed-in service cannot operate reliably without them. You can remove them through browser settings, but doing so may sign you out or break account functionality.
4. Browser and extension storage
The Chrome extension uses chrome.storage.local for account connection metadata, automation state, review prompts, and device/session proof material. This information stays in the user's Chrome profile unless it is sent to the GigAmigo backend as part of an authorised product action. LinkedIn cookies read by the extension are not copied to the GigAmigo backend.
The extension is granted access to sites you open over HTTPS, and a small guard script loads on those pages. It only asks the extension whether the current tab is under an active automated run, so that automated actions stay separated from your own clicks and typing; it stores nothing in those sites' storage and does not read or transmit their content. Page content is read only on LinkedIn and on an application page opened for a vacancy you selected.
5. Managing cookies
You can block or delete cookies in browser settings. Browser documentation explains how to manage storage in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent sign-in and protected product features from working.
6. Updates
We may update this policy when technologies, providers, or legal requirements change. The latest revision date appears at the top.
