Cookie Policy (Archived – 13 August 2026)
Here you’ll find information covering our use of cookies and tracking technologies.
This cookie policy applies to all Employment Hero websites, platforms, and mobile applications (“Employment Hero Platforms”). You may access and change your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the ‘cookie settings’ button in the Manage my cookies section of this policy.
What are cookies?
Employment Hero (also referred to as the “Employment Hero“, “we” or “us“) uses cookies on the Employment Hero Platforms. A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are created when your browser loads a particular website. The website sends information to the browser which then creates a text file. Every time the user goes back to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website’s server. Find out more about the use of cookies on www.allaboutcookies.org.
We also use other forms of technology (such as web beacons and, in apps, software development kits (usually referred to as SDKs) which serve a similar purpose to cookies and which allow us to monitor and improve our platforms and email communications. When we talk about cookies in this Cookie Policy, this term includes these similar technologies. If you would like more information about our privacy practices, please consult our Privacy Policy
Web Beacons / Gifs
We may from time to time employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons), that help us better manage content on our Employment Hero Platforms by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on our Employment Hero Platforms and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.
Third Party Cookies
When you visit certain sections of our Employment Hero Platforms, third parties may place cookies on your computer’s browser and/or make use of web beacons to collect information. This information may include things such as your use of the website or mobile application, device and browser information and ad data. The information generated by the cookies and web beacons about your use of the website is transmitted to those third parties. You should review the privacy and cookie policies of these services to find out how these third parties use cookies.

Cookie List
A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Those cookies are set by us and called first-party cookies. We also use third-party cookies – which are cookies from a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting – for our advertising and marketing efforts. More specifically, we use cookies and other tracking technologies for the following purposes:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
