Cookie policy

Effective date: November 5, 2026.

This Cookie Policy explains how GovArrow uses cookies and related technologies on www.govarrow.com. “Website” means www.govarrow.com, and “you” means a visitor to that Website. Defined terms carry the same meaning throughout the document.

GovArrow is a recruitment and executive search firm serving government and public sector employers across the United States. This policy governs Website technology only. It does not replace the privacy terms that apply to candidate records, client engagements, or other interactions with the firm, which are addressed in our Privacy Policy.

In short: this Website sets no advertising cookies, only strictly necessary cookies that may be set by our hosting platform, and we may use cookieless analytics to understand visits. The sections that follow explain each of those points, the browser controls available to you, and how to contact us.

Scope of this policy

This policy applies to cookies and related technologies used when you access the Website. It covers the strictly necessary cookies that may be set by our hosting platform and the cookieless analytics that may be used to understand visits. It does not cover technologies operated by any separate applicant tracking system, job board, scheduling tool, or other platform that you reach through a link from this Website.

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website or its service providers may ask a browser to store on a device. They commonly support security functions, session continuity, or saved preferences. Some expire when the browser session ends. Others remain on the device for a defined period and are read again on a later visit.

A first-party cookie is associated with the website you are visiting. A third-party cookie is associated with another provider whose technology operates on that website. On other websites, cookies may support features such as a shopping cart or advertising measurement. Those examples illustrate how cookies work in general and do not describe the practices of this Website.

Related technologies can include local storage, pixels, and software development kits. These technologies can raise privacy, tracking, and legal questions similar to those raised by cookies, although they are not cookies in the technical sense.

Cookies used on this Website

The position for this Website can be stated directly. This Website sets no advertising cookies. Only strictly necessary cookies may be set by our hosting platform, Cloudflare. We may also use cookieless analytics to understand visits to the Website.

The subsections below address each category in turn: strictly necessary cookies, advertising cookies and tracking, and cookieless analytics.

  • Strictly necessary cookies

    Strictly necessary cookies support functions required to deliver or protect a website, such as security controls and network functions. On this Website, Cloudflare may set cookies in this category in its role as hosting platform. Whether a given cookie is genuinely necessary depends on its actual purpose and configuration.

  • Advertising cookies and tracking

    We set no advertising cookies on this Website. This statement concerns advertising cookies placed through this Website. It does not describe every possible form of tracking or the practices of an external website reached through a link, which operate under their own policies.

  • Cookieless analytics

    We may use cookieless analytics to understand visits to this Website, for example to assess which pages receive attention and how the site is reached. The term “cookieless” describes the absence of an analytics cookie. It does not by itself establish what data is collected, how long that data is retained, or whether personal data is processed.

Managing cookies in your browser

Most browsers provide tools to view, delete, or block cookies. The available controls and their location vary by browser and device, so your browser provider’s help material is the appropriate source for current instructions. Because GovArrow does not control your browser, we cannot change these settings for you.

Browser controls and preferences

You can usually manage cookie preferences through browser settings, including deleting stored cookies or restricting future storage. Some tools apply to all websites you visit, while others permit site-specific choices that leave the rest of your settings unchanged. Private or incognito browsing modes typically discard stored cookies when the window is closed, which has a similar practical effect for a single session.

Effects of blocking cookies

Blocking or deleting a strictly necessary cookie may affect security or the delivery of part of the Website. The practical effect depends on the cookie’s verified function and on your browser configuration, so the consequences cannot be described accurately in general terms.

Personal data and privacy rights

Cookie identifiers and analytics records can sometimes be linked to a device, a browser, or an individual. Whether particular information constitutes personal data depends on the information involved, the context in which it is held, and the applicable law.

Depending on your location and the applicable data protection regulations, you may hold rights concerning your personal data. These can include:

  • access to the personal data held about you;
  • correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • deletion of that data;
  • portability of data you provided;
  • objection to particular processing, or restriction of processing;
  • appeal following a denied request.

Rights relating to Website cookies are separate from any rights concerning candidate records or client information held by the firm, which are addressed in our Privacy Policy.

Exercising privacy rights

Privacy requests may be submitted using the contact details below. A request should identify the information or processing activity concerned so that the responsible team can assess it accurately and respond within the applicable period.

Changes to this policy

We may revise this policy when Website technology, legal requirements, or our practices change. The effective date at the beginning of the document identifies the version currently in force, so a reader can confirm at a glance whether the policy has been updated since it was last reviewed.
