More about cookies
Most websites you visit will use cookies in order to improve your experience by enabling that website to ‘remember’ you, either for the duration of your visit (using a ‘session cookie’) or for repeat visits (using a ‘persistent cookie’).
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting (‘first party cookies’) or they may be set by other websites who run content on the page you are viewing (‘third party cookies’).
Cookies – They don’t all taste the same!
Not all cookies perform the same job so here’s an explanation of what they do and how we use them.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around a website and use its features and/or services. Without these absolutely necessary cookies, websites or apps will not perform as smoothly for you as we would like it to, and they may not be able to provide the certain services or features.
What do we use these for?
- We use Strictly Necessary Cookies to correctly identify you as a registered User and to ensure your ability to successfully navigate Gigable related sites, apps, products and services in a secure manner.
- We use Stripe as a third-party integration for fraud prevention and detection. See more information about Stripe cookies on https://stripe.com/cookies-policy/legal
Your consent is not required for the use of Strictly Necessary Cookies.
Performance/Analytics Cookies
Performance cookies collect information about how visitors use a website or app; for instance, which pages or sections visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies do not collect any information that identifies a visitor. The information that these cookies collect is aggregated and is therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website or app works.
What do we use these for?
We use Performance Cookies to assess and improve how visitors use our technology through statistical analysis. They are tools we use to make your experience more efficient and create a better experience.
- We use Hotjar for performance and analytics purposes on the business portal (business.gigable.app). If you want more information about Hotjar please use the following link: https://help.hotjar.com/hc/en-us/articles/115011789248-Hotjar-Cookie-Information

Third party_hjClosedSurveyInvitesHotjar cookie that is set once a visitor interacts with an External Link Survey invitation modal. It is used to ensure that the same invite does not reappear if it has already been shown.365 daysThird party_hjDonePollsHotjar cookie that is set once a visitor completes a survey using the On-site Survey widget. It is used to ensure that the same survey does not reappear if it has already been filled in.365 daysThird party_hjMinimizedPollsHotjar cookie that is set once a visitor minimizes an On-site Survey widget. It is used to ensure that the widget stays minimized when the visitor navigates through your site.365 daysThird party_hjShownFeedbackMessageHotjar cookie that is set when a visitor minimizes or completes Incoming Feedback. This is done so that the Incoming Feedback will load as minimized immediately if the visitor navigates to another page where it is set to show.365 daysThird party_hjidHotjar cookie that is set when the customer first lands on a page with the Hotjar script. It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behavior in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID.365 daysThird party_hjRecordingLastActivityThis should be found in Session storage (as opposed to cookies). This gets updated when a visitor recording starts and when data is sent through the WebSocket (the visitor performs an action that Hotjar records).SessionThird party_hjTLDTestWhen the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the _hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed.SessionThird party_hjUserAttributesHashUser Attributes sent through the Hotjar Identify API are cached for the duration of the session in order to know when an attribute has changed and needs to be updated.SessionThird party_hjCachedUserAttributesThis cookie stores User Attributes which are sent through the Hotjar Identify API, whenever the user is not in the sample. These attributes will only be saved if the user interacts with a Hotjar Feedback tool.SessionThird party_hjLocalStorageTestThis cookie is used to check if the Hotjar Tracking Script can use local storage. If it can, a value of 1 is set in this cookie. The data stored in_hjLocalStorageTest has no expiration time, but it is deleted almost immediately after it is created.Under 1000msThird party_hjIncludedInPageviewSampleThis cookie is set to let Hotjar know whether that visitor is included in the data sampling defined by your site’s pageview limit.30 minsThird party_hjIncludedInSessionSampleThis cookie is set to let Hotjar know whether that visitor is included in the data sampling defined by your site’s daily session limit.30 minsThird party_hjAbsoluteSessionInProgressThis cookie is used to detect the first pageview session of a user.
