Measurement
Shows VantageApply how the portal is used. Never used for advertising. Not switched on here yet. The measurement cookies listed below are set only if the institution switches usage analytics on and you allow measurement.
Changing or withdrawing your choice
You can change your choice at any time with the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page, or with the button below. Each change is recorded as a new choice. If you switch measurement off, measurement cookies already set are removed.
Global Privacy Control
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a refusal of optional cookies and record that choice for you.
How long your choice is kept
If you accept, your browser remembers your choice for 6 months, then we ask again. If you reject optional cookies, we ask again each time you open your browser. The record of your choice is kept for 24 months after it is replaced or expires, so it can be shown if anyone asks what you agreed to. It holds no IP address and no full browser details.
