Cookies & Local Storage

The site may use cookies or local-storage technologies that are necessary for authentication, language preference, security, session continuity and core interface behaviour. These technologies are used because the service cannot function correctly without them.

Optional analytics, advertising or cross-site marketing technologies should not be activated for users who require consent until the appropriate consent has been obtained. If such technologies are added, this policy and the consent interface must be updated accordingly.

• Authentication/session data managed by the relevant platform provider.
• Language and interface preferences stored to improve continuity between visits.
• Security-related state required to protect account access or prevent abuse.

Users can usually remove or block cookies through their browser settings. Blocking essential storage may prevent login, language persistence or other parts of the site from working correctly.

If the Institute adds new analytics, advertising or tracking providers, the cookie information and, where legally required, the consent mechanism must be reviewed before those tools are treated as production-ready.
