Cookie Policy

Cookies and similar technologies such as local storage are small files placed on your device. They let a site remember your session, your language and your preferences between page loads.

• Authentication and session cookies that keep you signed in to the provider or reviewer workspace.
• Security cookies used to protect forms and detect abusive requests.
• A consent record storing your cookie choice so we do not ask again on every page.
• Language preference for the multi-language interface.

With your consent we record aggregated, de-identified usage — which pages are visited and where applicants drop out of the accreditation flow — so we can improve the platform. These cookies are not set until you accept, and declining them does not affect any accreditation outcome.

GLS does not use advertising, retargeting or cross-site tracking cookies, and does not sell data to advertisers.

Embedded verification badges and widgets served from GLS domains set only the cookies needed to render and rate-limit the widget. If you embed a GLS badge on your own site, no cookies are set on your visitors for advertising purposes.

Clear this site's cookies and local storage in your browser settings and the consent banner will appear again on your next visit, letting you choose differently. You can also block cookies entirely in your browser, though the signed-in workspace will not function without strictly necessary cookies.
