Cookie Policy.Cookie Policy.

This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on deveval.com and in the DevEval product. For how we handle personal information more broadly, see our Privacy Policy.

What cookies and browser storage are

Cookies are small text files a website asks your browser to keep. Browser storage (local storage and session storage) works in a similar way: it keeps information on your device for the site that saved it. Session storage is cleared when you close the tab; local storage stays until it is removed. In this policy, “cookies” covers all of these.

What DevEval uses

DevEval does not set cookies of its own. We keep you signed in, remember your settings and save your work with browser storage. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies, and we do not sell or share what we store for advertising.

What we store falls into two groups:

• Essential. Needed for DevEval to work, or for something you asked for, such as staying signed in, autosaving your answers or keeping the theme you picked. These are always on.
• Analytics. Optional. Helps us understand which pages and features are used so we can improve them. Off until you turn it on.

When we store things, and your choice

Essential storage is used as soon as you use DevEval. We do not ask for consent for it, but we list all of it below.

Analytics stays off until you choose Accept All, or turn Analytics on in Cookie Settings. This is the same wherever you are. Choosing Reject All, or closing the notice without choosing, keeps analytics off.

You can change your choice at any time. Turning analytics off deletes its identifier from your browser. You can also clear site data in your browser settings; that signs you out and removes any work that was only saved on this device.

What we store

Names ending in “…” are followed by a task, page or account identifier.

Services that may set their own cookies

A few services we work with run on their own domains. When you use them, their own cookie policies apply.

• Google

  Only when you choose to sign in with Google, or when a workspace connects Google Calendar. Google may set its own cookies on its own domains during sign-in. Their policy

• Stripe

  Only on Stripe’s checkout and billing pages, when a company buys or manages a plan. Stripe sets its own cookies on its own pages for payments and fraud prevention. Their policy

• Daily

  Only in live interview rooms. Daily, our video provider, may store data needed to run the call. Their policy

• Sentry

  When something breaks. No cookies. Error reports with technical details go to Sentry so we can fix problems. Their policy

The full list of providers that process data for DevEval is on our subprocessors page.

Changes and contact

When we change what we store, we update this page and the date at the top.
