Cookie & Local Storage Policy · Proper Job Guild

§1 · Introduction

Cookie & Browser Storage Overview

Proper Job Guild uses a lightweight combination of first-party HTTP cookies and HTML5 localStorage / sessionStorage tokens to keep your member pass signed in, remember your hallmarked weaves, and honour your privacy choices under the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR) and UK GDPR.

§2 · First-Party HTTP Cookies

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These essential cookies are required for server session continuity and typography rendering. Because they are strictly necessary to deliver the service you request, they remain active without requiring marketing opt-in:

Cookie Name	Provider	Purpose	Expiry
`PHPSESSID` / `scn_s`	properjobslots.com	Essential first-party session continuity token used to maintain request state and authenticated member access.	Session / 30 days
`ab_variant_name`	properjobslots.com	Essential interface rendering and typography profile token (HttpOnly).	30 days

§3 · Client-Side Keys

Browser Local Storage & Session Storage Tokens

In addition to HTTP cookies, your browser stores the following prefixed keys locally on your device so your personal workbench works instantaneously:

Storage Key	Storage Type	Purpose
`pjs:claims`	`localStorage`	Stores the array of weave slugs you have stamped with a Hallmark on this device.
`pjs:recent`	`localStorage`	Stores up to 6 recently inspected weaves for your personal Workbench tray.
`pjs:scene`	`localStorage`	Remembers your chosen conservatory lighting scene (`vellum`, `flax`, or `obsidian`).
`pjs:analytics-consent`	`localStorage`	Records your explicit Google Consent Mode v2 decision (`granted` or `denied`).

§4 · Technical Implementation

Google Consent Mode v2 Architecture

Every page on properjobslots.com executes the following default denial declaration inside the <head> before any scripts run:

window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('consent', 'default', {
    'ad_storage': 'denied',
    'analytics_storage': 'denied',
    'ad_user_data': 'denied',
    'ad_personalization': 'denied',
    'wait_for_update': 380
});
window['ga-disable-G-PJS18UK001'] = true;

§5 · User Choice

Managing Consent & Browser Controls

You can toggle optional analytics storage at any time on our interactive Consent Mode v2 Preferences page, or clear site data directly through your browser’s privacy settings.
