Cookie Policy
Version 2026-04-26. ARTA-HUB is a product of Ayotte Recruitment and Training Academy.
Applicable regulation
This policy covers cookies and similar local storage technologies in accordance with the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.
Current cookie position
ARTA-HUB currently uses strictly necessary cookies and local storage only. We do not load analytics, advertising, behavioural tracking, or marketing cookies in production.
Strictly necessary session cookie
The arta_session cookie keeps authenticated users signed in and protects access to the service. It is HTTP-only, uses SameSite=Lax, and is marked Secure in production. It lasts for up to 7 days unless you log out earlier. This cookie is essential for the service to function and does not require separate consent under PECR.
Local storage — legal notice acknowledgement
ARTA-HUB stores a value in your browser's local storage to record that you have seen the privacy notice for the current legal document version. The key used is arta-hub-legal-notice:{VERSION} where {VERSION} is the current document version date. This value contains only the string "accepted" and is used solely to avoid showing the same notice on every page load.
Local storage — job board last visit
When you visit the Job Board, ARTA-HUB stores the current timestamp in local storage under the key lastJobsBoardVisit. This value is used only to show you how many new job adverts have been posted since your last visit. It contains no personal identifiers and is not shared with any third party.
Future optional cookies
If analytics, marketing, or other non-essential cookies are introduced later, ARTA-HUB will ask for a clear opt-in choice before those cookies are set, in accordance with PECR requirements.
