1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to remember your preferences, and to help website owners understand how their sites are used.
2. How we use cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies on our platform to:
- Remember your basic preferences (such as language or region, where applicable);
- Support secure login sessions and basic platform functionality;
- Understand how visitors use our website so we can improve content and navigation;
- Support analytics that help us improve our services and communication with users.
Information provided on this platform, including university, program, and city life data, is for general informational purposes only. All details are subject to change and should be verified with official university and government sources. Cookie-based analytics do not replace your responsibility to confirm information directly with official sources.
3. Types of cookies we use
The cookies used on our website generally fall into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary cookies – These cookies are essential for the website to function properly (for example, maintaining a secure session or delivering pages you request). You cannot opt out of these cookies through our site.
- Performance and analytics cookies – These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website (for example, which pages are visited most often) so we can improve the user experience.
- Functionality cookies – These cookies allow the site to remember choices you make (such as saved filters or display preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.
4. Third-party cookies and analytics
We may use third-party analytics tools (for example, tools similar to Google Analytics or other analytics providers) to help us measure traffic and usage trends. These third parties may set their own cookies on your device.
These third-party cookies are used to collect aggregated, anonymized or pseudonymized information about how visitors use the site (such as page views, time on page, and navigation paths). We use this information to evaluate and improve our services and the overall user experience.
5. Your choices and browser settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You may choose to:
- Accept all cookies;
- Block all cookies;
- Delete cookies already stored on your device; or
- Receive a notice before a cookie is stored.
If you block or delete cookies, some features of our website or platform may not function properly, and your overall experience may be affected (for example, you may need to log in more often, or certain preferences may not be saved).
For more detailed information on managing cookies, please refer to your browser’s help menu or support pages.
6. Do Not Track signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret DNT signals, our website does not currently respond to them. We will review and may update this practice if relevant standards are established.
7. Changes to this Cookie Notice
We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time to reflect changes in technology, applicable law, or our services. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
