Cookies Policy & Tracking Standards
Transparent guidance on how OSHA International uses session cookies, technical state storage, and analytics to optimize your portal experience.
1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small cryptographic text files stored on your computer or mobile device when you access web services. They are widely used by professional portals to maintain authenticated user sessions, retain user preferences, and safeguard against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks.
2. How We Use Cookies
OSHA International uses cookies strictly for operational integrity, technical security, and service delivery:
Required for logging into the Member Portal, maintaining secure authenticated sessions, protecting registration forms, and executing public certificate verification queries. These cannot be disabled without breaking system functionality.
Remember your catalog search filters, selected geographic region, and UI display preferences across subsequent visits.
Help us understand how practitioners navigate the course catalog and curriculum syllabi, enabling continuous usability enhancements. Data is aggregated and strictly anonymized.
3. Third-Party Cookies & Tracking
We do not sell user data or permit third-party advertising tracking networks on our portals. Third-party integrations are limited to verified authentication infrastructure, secure payment gateways, and cryptographic ledger verification nodes.
4. Managing Cookie Preferences
Most internet browsers allow you to block or clear cookies via browser settings. Note that disabling essential session cookies will prevent login access to the Member Portal and may disrupt interactive verification searches.
