Cookie Policy

Essential Cookies

These are necessary for the website to function properly. They cannot be disabled.

• • rs_cookie_consent - Stores your cookie consent preferences
• • sb-*-auth-token - Keeps you signed in to the candidate and client areas

Analytics Cookies

Google Analytics measures how visitors use the site so The Accountancy Recruiters can improve it. These cookies are only set if you opt in — until you accept analytics, Google Analytics runs in a cookieless mode (Google Consent Mode) and no analytics cookies are stored.

Separately from Google, and without a consent prompt, the site itself records how pages are used so The Accountancy Recruiters can fix what is not working: which pages you view, where you click and how far you scroll, how long you spend, whether a form field gave you trouble (never what you typed), how quickly each page loaded, and any errors the page produced. Redsun measures this on The Accountancy Recruiters's behalf under an anonymous visitor reference held in your browser's storage. It sets no cookies, is never joined to your name unless you fill in a form, and is not shared with Google or anyone else.

• • _ga, _ga_* - Google Analytics visitor and session measurement
• • redsun_visitor_id, redsun_session_id - Redsun's own anonymous visitor and visit references for the measurement above, held in browser storage rather than as cookies

Recognition Cookie

If you follow a link The Accountancy Recruiters sent you from its recruitment system, the site sets one first-party cookie recording which contact the visit belongs to, so the consultants you already deal with can see that you have been on the site.

This one is set under legitimate interests rather than the consent banner, because you are an existing business contact and the recognition only works on this site. Visitors who arrive without a tracking link are not recognised; their visits are measured only under the anonymous reference described above.

• • rs_vid - Opaque contact reference, first-party, 90 days, no personal details stored in the cookie itself
