| Item | Type | Purpose | Lifetime | Provider |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Litos session values | Local storage | Keeps you signed in and remembers whether the session is verified or a guest session. | Until sign-out, account deletion, or browser-site data is cleared. | Litos |
| Guest and setup values | Local or session storage | Keeps a guest identifier, setup choices, and short-lived connection intent on this browser. | Until the related flow ends, sign-out, or browser-site data is cleared. | Litos |
| Recent job-title searches | Local storage | Keeps up to five job-title searches on this browser so you can run them again. It does not store location or sponsorship filters. | Until you clear the list or browser-site data. | Litos |
| Dashboard job controls | Local storage | Keeps the job IDs you skip for the current local day and short-lived locks that prevent the same application packet from being prepared twice. | Skip lists are stored under date-keyed names and are ignored after that day, but remain until browser-site data is cleared. Preparation locks are ignored after 10 minutes. Failure paths remove them earlier; otherwise they remain until browser-site data is cleared. | Litos |
| First landing page | Local storage | Keeps the path of the first Litos page this browser opened, one word for the kind of site that sent it, such as google or reddit, that site's domain name, and any campaign tags (utm_*) or ad click identifier the link carried, never the full address. It is sent when a new account is created so we can count sign-ups by page, source and campaign. | Until you sign in, start a guest account or sign out on this browser, or browser-site data is cleared. | Litos |
| litos_xid and the test version | Cookie and local storage | A random identifier in a cookie, set on comparison pages, picks which version of the page's main button you see while we test which works better. Local storage remembers that version so analytics still know which one you saw on the next page. Neither holds anything else. | The cookie lasts up to 180 days; the stored version stays until browser-site data is cleared. | Litos |
| rq_try | Cookie | Keeps the public Try flow attached to your work in that browser. | Up to 24 hours. | Litos |
| PostHog identifiers | Cookie or local storage | Counts page visits, clicks, changes, submissions on interactive elements, numeric initial-page performance diagnostics, and the limited product actions described in the Privacy policy, which also covers session recording. Form field values are not captured by automatic tracking. | Set by PostHog according to its browser SDK defaults, or until browser-site data is cleared. | PostHog |
