Cookie Policy
This portal uses as few cookies as possible — only what is needed for the application form and staff sign-in to work. No advertising or tracking cookies are used.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files a website saves on your device. They let the site remember what you are doing as you move between pages. See also our Privacy Policy.
Cookies we set
| Name | Purpose | Set when | Expires |
|---|---|---|---|
| NERISESSID | Keeps your session active — for parents, it holds your scholarship application as you complete each step; for staff, it keeps you signed in to the admin portal. It also protects forms against tampering. | Your first visit | When you close your browser |
| neri_remember | Optional "Remember me" for staff sign-in. Only created if a staff member ticks Remember me on the admin login page. Parents never receive this cookie. | Staff sign-in (optional) | 30 days, or on sign-out |
Cookies we do not use
This portal sets no advertising, analytics, social-media or third-party tracking cookies. Your browsing here is not shared with advertisers or data brokers.
Both cookies are strictly necessary
Without the session cookie the application form cannot carry your answers between steps, and staff cannot sign in securely. Because the portal sets nothing beyond these strictly necessary cookies, there is no consent banner — nothing here needs one.
Managing cookies
You can delete or block cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking them will stop the application form from working (your answers are kept on the school's server, but the browser must hold the session cookie to reach them). Deleting the staff "remember me" cookie simply means signing in again.
