No Advertising or Analytics Cookies
KASAUTI IQ doesn't use analytics, advertising or tracking scripts, on this website or in the app. The site's security policy only lets scripts from KASAUTI IQ itself run, with one exception below.
Cloudflare Turnstile
The sign-in page loads Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a person, not a script, is signing in. It runs in a frame served by Cloudflare, which may store data in that frame under Cloudflare's own privacy policy. We don't set a cookie for it, and it isn't loaded on any other page.
Managing Cookies
Turn preferences on or off in Cookie Settings. Turning them off deletes the preference cookies and local storage from this browser, and the app uses the default theme and sidebar. Strictly necessary cookies are always on: without them you can't sign in or take an assessment or interview. You can also delete or block cookies in your browser's settings.
Other Browser Storage
A few screens keep small conveniences in your browser's local storage. They stay on your device, are never sent to us, and are turned off with the other preferences.
- hireshield.meeting.devices
- The camera, microphone and speaker you chose before an interview.
- hireshield.feedback.…
- An interviewer's unsent feedback, so it isn't lost. Removed once it is submitted.
- hireshield:regenerate-dismissed:…
- That a recruiter dismissed the prompt to regenerate questions for a position.
