Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Similar technologies include local storage (data stored directly in your browser) and session storage. These technologies allow websites to remember information about your visit — such as your preferences or login state — across pages or sessions.
Cookies can be set by the website you visit ("first-party") or by third-party services embedded in the site ("third-party"). They can be temporary ("session cookies," deleted when you close your browser) or persistent ("persistent cookies," stored until they expire or you delete them).
ALTAR Gallery uses a minimal and privacy-respecting approach to cookies. We categorise our cookies as follows:
These are essential for the website to function. They cannot be disabled. No personal data is shared with third parties through these cookies.
