Cookie Policy

This policy explains how MyAfroScholars uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit the site or use your dashboard.

We use strictly necessary cookies to keep you signed in and to secure your session, preference cookies to remember choices such as language and layout, and analytics cookies to understand which pages and scholarships people actually use so we can improve them.

Cookies are small text files a site stores in your browser so it can recognise the same browser on a later request. Similar technologies — local storage and pixels — serve the same purpose, and this policy treats them the same way.

Some cookies are set by third parties we rely on, such as our analytics provider and the payment processors that handle scholarship funding. Those providers set their own cookies under their own policies, which we link to in the full policy below.

You can control or clear cookies from your browser settings at any time. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will sign you out and prevent parts of the dashboard from working; blocking analytics cookies has no effect on your ability to apply for or fund a scholarship.
