COOKIE POLICY

Last updated October 16, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how GoalMate Circle LLC ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://applysmartly.com ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

In some cases we may use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, GoalMate Circle LLC) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (for example, advertising, chat, and embedded video). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party storage and, only if you allow them, third-party cookies. Some storage is required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to this as "essential" or "strictly necessary." Optional technologies are used for advertising, chat, and the demo playlist. They do not run unless you allow them. This is described in more detail below.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can set that choice in the cookie banner, and you can change it later from the cookie button on the site or from the cookie settings link on this page. Essential cookies and similar storage cannot be rejected because they are needed to sign in, keep your choice, protect signup and contact forms, or remember a form or interview draft you are in the middle of writing.

If you reject non-essential cookies, you may still use our Website. Google Ads, the Tidio chat widget, and the YouTube playlist on the demo page will not load. If you turn optional cookies off after allowing them, the page reloads so those scripts stop. This website then deletes the optional first-party cookie and site storage it can see, including a Google Ads cookie named _gcl_au, a local storage entry named _gcl_ls, and local storage entries whose names start with tidio_state_. Cookies set on Google, DoubleClick, Tidio, or YouTube domains are not accessible to this website and are not deleted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

Essential storage

Optional technologies

These load only after you choose Accept all, or after you turn on optional cookies in Customize. Reject non-essential leaves them off. On a later visit, they stay off until you change your choice.

How can I control cookies on my browser?

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information. The following is information about how to manage cookies on the most popular browsers:

In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit:

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

This Website does not deploy its own web beacons, tracking pixels, or clear gifs. Essential storage is separate from optional tracking. It covers sign-in, your cookie choice, unfinished form and interview drafts, and the bot check, and it continues to work if you reject non-essential cookies. If you allow optional cookies, Google Ads, Tidio, and the YouTube demo embed may use their own cookies and related measurement. Those optional technologies do not load when non-essential cookies are rejected.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

We do not use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects.

Do you serve targeted advertising?

If you allow optional cookies, Google may use advertising cookies in connection with the Google Ads tag described above. YouTube may do the same when the demo playlist loads. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. This does not happen if you reject non-essential cookies. The information collected through this process does not enable us to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
