Privacy, cookies and language preferences

The only usages of cookies in Mathematics Department sites which might be questioned as not being absolutely essential to the site inner workings deal with:

registering the user's language preference within the math.tecnico.ulisboa.pt domain to minimize the number of times the user may need to follow language specific links and
the default list of seminars and research courses one wishes to follow when accessing https://math.tecnico.ulisboa.pt/seminars/

You may stop this by disallowing cookies in our domain but then some functionality will be lost.

There are absolutely no circumstances where cookies or other technologies are used for questionable privacy purposes.

Registration of originating IP address, browser, etc., is made for the usual security and statistical purposes in logs and through Google Analytics.
