On a secure connection some names carry a __Secure- or __Host- prefix, which tells the browser to send them only over HTTPS.
Settings kept in your browser
Some apps remember choices you make, such as light or dark theme, language, table sorting and favourites, in your browser's local storage. HRIS keeps an open Leafy conversation in the tab's session storage so it survives moving between pages; it is cleared when you close the tab. None of this is sent to us or anyone else.
Sign in with Google
If you choose to sign in with Google, Google sets its own cookies on its own website, under Google's privacy policy.
Why we don't ask for consent
These cookies are strictly necessary for the apps to work, so the law does not require your consent for them. If you block them in your browser, you won't be able to sign in.
