This Cookie Policy explains how LA CERISE uses cookies and similar web storage technologies to provide a secure, functional, and optimal browsing experience on this domain.
1. What Are Cookies?

3. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are indispensable for the core operation of the portal, enabling security measures, form submissions, and load balancing. Because the site cannot function properly without them, they do not require prior consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive.
4. Analytical & Performance Cookies
We employ strictly first-party, anonymized telemetry cookies to understand which research monographs generate the highest engagement among postgraduates and institutional analysts. We do not use third-party behavioral advertising trackers.
